According to sources, Biden sees the main orchestrator in Nancy Pelosi, the former speaker of the House, but he is also angry with former president Barack Obama.
According to the reports from the New York Times, President Joe Biden has not changed his decision by Friday that he will not step back from the 2024 election campaign. However, sources close to the president who spoke anonymously say that Biden is increasingly accepting that he may not be able to maintain his candidacy. Biden, who is currently recovering from a coronavirus infection at his beach house in Delaware, is eagerly awaiting his recovery.
He feels that coordinated leaks against him are trying to persuade him to withdraw.
According to sources, Biden sees the main orchestrator in Nancy Pelosi, the former speaker of the House, but he is also angry with former president Barack Obama, whom he believes is orchestrating the campaign against him from behind the scenes. Several members of the Democratic Party publicly do not call on Biden to withdraw, fearing that it would be counterproductive and only strengthen the president’s determination. However, there are ongoing speculations about when a withdrawal could occur.
One scenario suggests that a more likely chance would only come after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Washington on Wednesday. Biden does not want to give the pleasure to the Israeli leader, with whom he has a strained relationship due to the Gaza conflict, of personally enjoying his political downfall.
