Biden Vows to Continue Reelection Bid Amid Growing Democratic Pressure

President Joe Biden insists on continuing his reelection campaign despite mounting pressure from fellow Democrats, following a poor debate performance. Leading Democratic figures, including Rep. Jim Clyburn, suggest potential alternatives if Biden steps down. Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris remain firm in their stance to stay in the race.

President Joe Biden remains resolute in his decision to seek reelection, pushing back against increasing calls from his party to step aside after a lackluster debate showing.

"I am running. I am the leader of the Democratic Party. No one is pushing me out,'' Biden declared during a call with campaign staffers, according to an aide's social media post.

Despite signals of waning support among Democrats on Capitol Hill, Biden, alongside Vice President Kamala Harris, appeared in a surprise call to buoy campaign morale, emphasizing the election's high stakes. Biden has been engaging top legislators, meeting with Democratic governors, and planning a campaign blitz to solidify his position.
