Pressure Mounts for Biden to Withdraw from Race

Pressure mounts on President Joe Biden from top Democrats and donors to consider dropping out of the presidential race due to concerns about his performance and electability, with calls for withdrawal intensifying after a lackluster debate and amid fears of a potential landslide victory for Republican candidate Donald Trump. Wealthy Democratic donors have initiated lobbying efforts urging lawmakers to publicly push Biden to end his reelection campaign, threatening to withhold financial support if he persists. Despite these pressures, some local Democrats in South Dakota express support for Biden, emphasizing his policy successes and dismissing concerns about his age compared to Trump, highlighting the impact of infrastructure projects funded by Biden's legislation in the state.
