Democrats Split on Biden's 2024 Candidacy

The Democratic Party is experiencing internal conflict regarding President Joe Biden's ability to continue as their nominee following a poor debate performance against Donald Trump. While some Democrats, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have called for Biden to step aside, others, like Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, have rallied to his defense. Biden insists he is capable and determined to stay in the race, portraying himself as an underdog who repeatedly overcomes challenges. Concurrently, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey and other state attorneys general have filed a lawsuit against federal guidelines for transgender care, arguing it endangers children's health. The Republican National Convention is set to begin in Milwaukee, with discussions around Joe Biden's mental fitness and potential GOP running mates for Trump being key topics of interest.
