Some of the country’s largest media outlets have called on President Biden to step aside and allow another Democrat to take on former President Trump in November, following the president’s concerning debate performance last week.
Biden’s first debate performance raised alarms among some Democrats and supporters, with the president struggling to string ideas together or rebut Trump’s many false statements. Almost half of Democrats in a new poll say Biden should allow a different candidate to take the party’s nomination.
Here are the major outlets that have called on Biden to drop out of the race: The New York Times, New Yorker, Economist, Chicago Tribune, and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
