Biden Called ‘More Receptive’ to Hearing Pleas to Step Aside

President Joe Biden has been facing mounting pressure from within his own party to step aside and not seek reelection in 2024. According to sources close to the president, Biden has been described as being “more receptive” to hearing pleas from top Democrats to consider not running for a second term.

The calls for Biden to step aside have been growing louder in recent weeks, as the president’s approval ratings have taken a hit amid ongoing challenges like inflation, supply chain disruptions, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Many Democrats fear that if Biden were to seek reelection, it could hurt the party’s chances of retaining the White House in 2024.

Some top Democrats have reportedly been urging Biden to consider not seeking a second term in order to give the party a better chance of winning the next election. They argue that a new candidate, possibly someone younger and more progressive, could energize the base and attract more voters.

While Biden has not made any official statements about his plans for 2024, sources close to the president say that he is taking the calls for him to step aside seriously and is open to considering the idea. However, they also note that Biden has not made any final decisions and is still weighing his options.

It remains to be seen whether Biden will ultimately decide to run for a second term or not. But the fact that he is reportedly open to hearing pleas from within his own party to step aside is a significant development that could have major implications for the 2024 election.

In the meantime, Democrats will continue to watch closely as Biden navigates the challenges of his presidency and considers his future political plans. The coming months will be crucial in determining whether Biden will seek reelection or make way for a new candidate to lead the party in 2024.
