An anonymous aide to Democrats in the House of Representatives has revealed that 25 elected Democrats are preparing to call for President Joe Biden to end his reelection bid<\/a> following his catastrophic debate performance against former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

During the\u00a0CNN\u00a0<\/em>presidential debate on June 27,\u00a0the 81-year-old Biden\u00a0grappled with a hoarse voice and stumbled over words and moments.\u00a0The public saw the president repeatedly freeze up and lose his train of thought that day. Aides attributed this to a cold he seemingly picked up during his weeklong out-of-the-public preparation for the debate held in Atlanta.<\/p>\n

The Democratic Party panicked\u00a0and was alarmed that\u00a0Biden struggled to maintain coherence against Trump<\/a>, the 78-year-old presumptive Republican nominee.\u00a0(Related:\u00a0Biden’s debate performance raises alarm among Democrats. Here’s why<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

The anonymous House Democratic aide<\/a>\u00a0said the\u00a025 House Democrats, particularly those in competitive districts,\u00a0are now considering drafting a letter to Biden to urge him to reconsider his candidacy if he appears “shaky” in the “coming days.”<\/a>\u00a0These lawmakers are most vulnerable to losing their seats in the upcoming November elections.<\/p>\n

Moreover, a second\u00a0House Democratic aide mentioned that\u00a0moderate Democrats in competitive districts face increasing questions from constituents post-debate.<\/p>\n

“It looks like the dam has broken,” the second House Democratic aide said.<\/p>\n

Three Democrats publicly call on Biden to step aside from the presidential race<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This report follows a public call\u00a0by Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) on July 2 that Biden should step aside after his shaky debate performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I represent the heart of a congressional district once represented by [former President] Lyndon Johnson,” Doggett said. “Under very different circumstances, he made the painful decision to withdraw. President Biden should do the same. While much of his work has been transformational, he pledged to be transitional.”<\/p>\n

“He has the opportunity to encourage a new generation of leaders from whom a nominee can be chosen to unite our country through an open, democratic process. My decision to make these strong reservations public is not done lightly nor does it in any way diminish my respect for all that President Biden has achieved. Recognizing that, unlike Trump, President Biden’s first commitment has always been to our country, not himself, I am hopeful that he will\u00a0make the painful and difficult decision to withdraw<\/a>.\u00a0I respectfully call on him to do so.”<\/p>\n

Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME) echoed this statement the next day in his\u00a0op-ed article for the\u00a0Bangor Daily News<\/em>. Golden\u00a0openly questioned Biden’s\u00a0ability to win reelection<\/a>\u00a0while stating that he would find a potential Trump victory in November acceptable.<\/p>\n

“After the first presidential debate, lots of Democrats are panicking about whether President Joe Biden should step down as the party\u2019s nominee,” Golden wrote. “Biden’s poor performance in the debate was not a surprise. It also didn\u2019t rattle me as it has others because the outcome of this election has been clear to me for months: While I don’t plan to vote for him, Donald Trump is going to win. And I’m OK with that.”<\/p>\n

Similarly, Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) told local outlet KATU<\/em>: “The truth, I think, is that Biden is going to lose to Trump.” While she stopped short of calling for Biden to withdraw, she acknowledged the damage caused by the debate.<\/p>\n
