Biden Hits Campaign Trail in Effort to Defy Growing Number of Critics

Simon Kent 7 Jul 2024

U.S. President Joe Biden will hit the campaign trail Sunday in an effort to defy the growing number of naysayers who believe he is no longer fit for high office.

The octogenarian Democrat kicks off the week with two campaign rallies in the battleground state of Pennsylvania. He then returns to Washington, DC,  to host the NATO leaders’ summit, AFP reports.

He will do so as pressure mounts for him to drop out after his disastrous debate against Donald Trump continues to drive panic over his age and fitness to serve another four years, as Breitbart News reported.

Other media appearances have done nothing to stifle doubts enveloping Biden’s hopes in the 2024 presidential campaign.

Biden has ignored all calls for him to step aside by declaring — at a rally, to reporters and on social media — he is fit to serve, the only one who can defeat Trump, and staying in the race.

“I beat Trump in 2020. I’m going to beat him again in 2024,” his campaign social media account posted Saturday.

But a televised 20-minute pre-recorded interview with ABC News on Friday has failed to quell concerns with stumbling answers and confused responses to questions.

His next major test in the public eye will be a press conference scheduled for Thursday, during the NATO summit.

 Bidens head to Pennsylvania as part of July voter outreach blitz
by Lauren Irwin - 07/07/24 7:00 AM ET

President Biden and first lady Jill Biden will travel to Pennsylvania Sunday to begin their July voter outreach events amid the fallout from the president’s poor debate showing and concerns among Democrats.

Biden is set to deliver remarks at a church service in Northwest Philadelphia before traveling to Harrisburg, Pa., for an event with union members and local Democrats, his campaign said.

He will be joined by Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.), Lt. Gov. Austin Davis, both Pennsylvania Democratic Senators Bob Casey and John Fetterman, Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker (D) and other local leaders.

The Pennsylvania visit follows Biden’s recent trip to Madison, Wis., on Friday and is part of the campaign’s efforts to target battleground states.

The president has faced mounting criticism after his debate performance and calls for him to step aside to allow someone else to take on former President Trump.
