New reports indicate that Joe Biden will leave the presidential race as early as this weekend. With his departure, radically pro-abortion vice president Kamala Harris is expected to be the Democrat nominee to face former President Donald Trump.
Biden’s potential exit from the presidential race comes after a horrible debate performance in which he sounded weak and sick and had difficulty defending his record as president. It also comes after an assassination attempt on Trump’s life that has resulted in additional support for his campaign and increasing mental health failures for Biden.
Polling data shows that Biden trails Trump by significant margins both nationwide and in top battleground states that he needs to win reelection. Polling also shows that Trump is leading Harris but perhaps by a smaller margin.

Democrats on the hill worry that they’ll lose their seats if Biden does not exit the race (via Axios):
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a mastermind of the campaign to get Biden out, told him that he could destroy Democrats’ chances of taking back the House. We’re told she’s also worried about donations drying up.
