Biden ‘angry’ with Obama over calls to step down

Joe Biden is reportedly angry with Barack Obama for joining other top Democrats in calling for him to bow out of the US presidential race.

The US president has not yet decided to step aside, with his team publicly insisting he will remain on the ticket. However, privately, the Biden team has acknowledged that his candidacy may be untenable amid a growing number of Democrats urging him to withdraw, according to the New York Times.

Obama, the former president, and Senator Nancy Pelosi have been among those calling for Mr Biden to withdraw from the race, as Mr Biden’s cognitive faculties have come under increasing scrutiny.

Biden, currently in isolation with a Covid infection at his beach home in Delaware, is said to view Ms Pelosi as the instigator of the plot to oust him but is particularly wounded by the involvement of Mr Obama, whom he once considered a close friend.

Biden’s advisers reportedly believe the president would be reluctant to step aside before Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, visits Washington on Wednesday to address Congress. They believe he would want to avoid giving the Israeli leader the satisfaction, given their fraught relationship over the Gaza war.

Despite a week of campaign stops, interviews and insistence that he is the best candidate to confront his Republican rival Donald Trump, President Joe Biden has done little to soften the push for him to exit the 2024 race.

Biden has weighty options before him this weekend that could set the direction of the country and his party as the nation heads toward the November election with an energized GOP after the Republican nominating convention to send Trump back to the White House.

Almost 35 Democrats in Congress say it’s time for Biden to quit the race, with more lawmakers expected to speak out in the days ahead. Donors have raised concerns. And an organization calling on Biden to “Pass the Torch” planned a rally Saturday at the White House.

Joe Biden criticised his Republican rival Donald Trump as having a “dark vision” for America and said he looked forward to returning to the campaign trail next week and winning at the ballot box in November.

“Donald Trump’s dark vision for the future is not who we are as Americans. Together, as a party and as a country, we can and will defeat him at the ballot box. I look forward to getting back on the campaign trail next week to continue exposing the threat of Donald Trump’s Project 2025 agenda..,” Biden said in a statement following the Republican National Convention.
