Biden Goes Into Hiding Amid Mounting Pressure to Resign, Saying He Has Covid.
Joe Biden has gone into hiding as Democrat donors and lawmakers increase the pressure on him to exit the 2024 presidential race, saying he has COVID-19 and needs to isolate. “I tested positive for COVID-19 this afternoon, but I am feeling good and thank everyone for the well wishes,” the 81-year-old said in a statement posted to social media. “I will be isolating as I recover, and during this time I will continue to work to get the job done for the American people.”Biden’s latest bout of ill-health—his disastrous debate performance against former President Donald J. Trump was blamed on a cold—is eliciting little sympathy from either his critics or former allies. Many of the former are circulating previous false statements from the elderly Democrat claiming people were “not going to get Covid if they have… vaccinations” and that the Chinese coronavirus pandemic was “a pandemic of the unvaccinated.”
Former allies in the corporate media, meanwhile, have contrasted Biden isolating himself as his candidacy is in crisis with Donald Trump’s show of strength at the Republican National Convention days after being shot by a would-be assassin.
