Biden's Decision to Withdraw from the Race
The president announced his decision to withdraw from the 2024 election, emphasizing the preservation of democracy over personal ambition. He acknowledged his leadership record, suggesting it warranted a second term, yet refrained from explaining the motivations behind his choice.
