It was a Goodbye-den that had to happen. But what happens from here on out?
And finally, the die is cast. Joe Biden has decided, and after his announcement, he is withdrawing from the race for re-election as President of the USA.
Every moment of Joe Biden reeked of “own goal”
A development that one would say is natural, especially considering that as days went by, he lost more and more allies, both in terms of financial support for his campaign and from the statements of several individuals within the Democratic Party.
Especially that disastrous first debate against Donald Trump effectively proved that Joe Biden could not win the trust of the American people, as well as that of his own party.
The assassination attempt on Trump may have “ended” Biden’s hopes once and for all.
My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best… pic.twitter.com/x8DnvuImJV

After the recent events, Biden not only withdrew but also publicly endorsed Kamala Harris as the Democratic candidate for President in the upcoming American elections in November, and now we all await whether the showdown for the position of President of the USA will be between Trump and the former Vice President, or if another candidate will emerge.
Donald Trump, on the Republican side, claims he will have an easier time winning the election against Kamala Harris compared to Biden, while many – including the mogul preparing to run for a second term in the White House – point out that since he cannot seek a second term, he should also resign from his duties as President of the USA.
“He was not fit to run for President and certainly is not capable of serving – and never was,” Trump stated in a post, while the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson, is on the same wavelength, saying “If Biden is not fit to run for President, he is not fit to serve as President. He must resign immediately”.

Can Goodbye-den “save” the Democrats?
Right now, many questions arise around the American elections, especially from the Democrats’ side, such as why did it take until a few months before the elections for Biden to resign, especially since his health issues were evident.
In House of Cards of the White House, a new, tighter, and quite painful cycle begins, with new horizons and many questions. Perhaps the choice of Kamala Harris was the last gamble in the Democrats’ effort to hold onto the Nomination, however, the test against the “lord” of mind games, Donald Trump, will not be an easy game.
And after all, the mogul and former President currently holds a huge advantage.
