Biden may be about to drop out – report

This might be the end of the line for Joe Biden’s bid to remain as President.

“We’re close to the end,” a person close to Biden told NBC News.

A person who spoke with a senior campaign official said a sense of a new reality has fallen over the campaign.

“They’re finally realizing: It’s a when, not if,” the person said.

Sky News Arabia also tweeted a report that he was dropping out but they later deleted it.

Reports this week have highlighted that top Democrats have told him he can’t win and that the public perception of his diminishing capacity is cemented.

Adding to the report, the Atlantic highlights that Peter Welch remains the only Democratic senator to call for Biden to step aside. He’s growing confident the pressure campaign is working. I asked him, what needs to happen now? “I think it’s happening, actually,” Welch replied.

Welch supports an open nomination after he drops out, not a coronation of Kamala Harris.

Meanwhile, Biden is also fighting a battle on the health front. In a letter, Biden’s doctor says the President is experiencing “mild upper respiratory symptoms” from COVID-19. The doctor says he does not have a fever and continues to work.

Earlier today
a report in the Washington Post said that former President Barack Obama told allies Biden’s pathway to victory was greatly diminished and that he needs to seriously consider if his campaign remains viable.
