He's out: Yesterday around 2 p.m., President Joe Biden published a letter on X announcing some welcome but not altogether surprising news: He is suspending his campaign to be reelected president.
This comes on the heels of his abysmal performance in the June 27 presidential debate, which, interesting, Biden's campaign had lobbied for. They wanted the first debate to be held earlier than tradition calls for, seemingly aiming to shake up the race (Biden was lagging in the polls) and to draw attention to Donald Trump's recent felony conviction.
