United States: The former President of the United States – Barack Obama– has asked allies to suggest that Biden reconsider his election bid for the 2024 presidential elections, as reported by the Washington Post.
The statement was released by the former President after Biden tested positive for COVID-19, and many politicians have been appealing to him to drop out of the race.
Obama has expressed that he thinks that the path to victory for Biden has diminished and the President, who is now 81-year-old, should “seriously consider the viability of his candidacy,” as per the reports by the Washington Post.
There was no immediate response from Obama, who served as President while Biden was vice president from 2009 to 2017 and continues to be a major influence in the Democratic party.
