The US President Joe Biden will continue to be a part of the Presidential race according to an email sent out by the Biden campaign.

“Folks, let me be clear: I’m running. I’m the Democratic Party’s nominee. No one is pushing me out.I’m not leaving.I’m in this race to the end, and we are going to win this election. If that’s all you need to hear, pitch a few bucks to help Kamala and me to defeat Donald Trump in November.”

This came days after Biden’s disastrous performance at the 2024 US Presidential debate, following which several reports suggested that Democrats are likely to drop him from the race.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre also cofirmed that Biden is not considering stepping down. “Absolutely not,” she said.
