President Biden faces increasing pressure from some Democrats to withdraw from the 2024 race, following concerns about his ability to defeat Donald Trump, especially after a poor debate performance. Some prominent lawmakers, including Nancy Pelosi and Senator Joe Manchin, are hinting at potential opposition to Biden's re-election bid after the NATO summit. Democratic lawmakers are preparing statements and contingency plans in case Biden's performance at the NATO press conference does not meet expectations, signaling a growing divide within the party on how to address the situation. Despite internal skepticism about convincing Biden to step aside, there is a sense of urgency and concern among Democrats as they navigate this critical juncture in the election cycle.
