Rep. Quigley Urges Biden To Step Aside For Election

President Biden travels to San Fransisco to attend APEC

During a recent interview, Democratic Rep. Mike Quigley of Illinois expressed concerns about President Joe Biden's ability to secure a second term in office. Quigley, who had previously urged Biden to consider stepping aside, emphasized the importance of prioritizing the goal of preventing a second Trump presidency over individual efforts.

Quigley highlighted two key moments from a recent ABC interview with Biden that troubled him. Firstly, Biden admitted to not watching a debate, and secondly, he emphasized that his primary focus was on giving his best effort to win the election. Quigley disagreed with this sentiment, stating that the paramount objective should be avoiding another term for former President Trump.

He suggested that stepping aside and acknowledging the limitations of the current administration could ultimately benefit the Democratic party and the nation as a whole.
