U.S. President Joe Biden has dropped out of the 2024 presidential race against Donald Trump
0:05
after concerns over his age swirled around the candidate following his debate appearance last month
0:10
Biden, who contracted COVID last week, had made a number of public appearances in recent weeks
0:16
that caused questions over whether he would be fit to serve another term
0:20
Almost three dozen Democrats in Congress have publicly called for him to stand down
0:24
with many more seemingly working behind the scenes to persuade him not to run
0:28
Biden also endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as a Democratic nominee, leaving little doubt
0:34
that she would be the one to fight against Trump in November. Ms. Harris, now 59 years old, said that she was honored to be endorsed by the President
0:42
She added that she would earn and win this nomination and unite the country against Donald Trump
0:47
The Vice President pointed out that there was just over a hundred days left until the U.S
0:51
Election Day, saying, together we will fight and together we will win
0:55
Although Harris has received endorsements from several big figures in the Democratic Party
1:00
she has not been officially nominated yet, which may not happen until the Democratic National
1:04
Convention in August. Additionally, in a statement made by Biden, he said, it has been the greatest honor of his
1:10
life to serve as the United States President. And while it had been his intention to seek re-election, he believes it is in the best interest
1:18
of the Democratic Party and the country for him to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling
1:24
his duties as the president for the remainder of his term. He further added that he will speak to the nation later this week to provide more details
1:31
regarding his decision. If you want to stay updated on the latest news surrounding the U.S. elections, follow
