In a move that has electrified the political landscape, President Joe Biden has officially withdrawn from the 2024 presidential race, casting his support and remaining influence behind Vice President Kamala Harris. This strategic shift has set the stage for a heated showdown between Harris and former President Donald Trump, the GOP’s leading candidate for 2024.
President Biden announced his decision on social media, stating, “My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
With characteristic vigor, Team Trump wasted no time in launching a blistering campaign against Harris. A political action committee (PAC) allied with Trump’s campaign has released a searing 2024 ad targeting the Vice President, aiming to sway voters in critical swing states such as Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.
