ANALYSIS — When it comes to President Joe Biden’s plans for reelection, Republicans aren’t taking “no” for an answer and are pressuring him to resign altogether. Presumably, the goal is to embarrass Biden, weaken the Democratic Party and help give former President Donald Trump another advantage in the race. But the GOP strategy could do just the opposite.
The call for Biden to step down includes some of the top Republicans on the Hill.
“If Joe Biden is not fit to run for President, he is not fit to serve as President,” said Speaker Mike Johnson in a release on Sunday. “He must resign the office immediately. November 5 cannot arrive soon enough.”
