Abstract

President Joe Biden has tested positive for Covid-19, but his campaign is facing increasing pressure for him to step aside. Former President Barack Obama reportedly told allies that Biden's chances of winning are greatly diminished and that he should seriously consider if his campaign is still viable. Democratic lawmakers and donors have also expressed concerns about Biden's ability to serve as president due to his age and health. While Biden's team insists that he is dedicated to running, there is speculation about when or if he might exit the race. The president's illness is likely to hamper his campaign's momentum and ability to respond to critics. [Extracted from the article]
