The first Democratic lawmakers called on President Biden to drop out of the race after a disastrous debate performance last week prompted emerging concerns among elected Democrats.
Washington — Rep. Lloyd Doggett became the first Democratic lawmaker to call on President Biden to drop out of the presidential race in the wake of his debate performance last week, with Doggett saying on Tuesday that he is 'hopeful that he will make the painful and difficult decision to withdraw.''While much of his work has been transformational, he pledged to be transitional,' the Texas Democrat said in a statement.
Mike Quigley, an Illinois Democrat, said on CNN Tuesday morning that there is a 'decision' that the president will have to make, signaling an openness to a new name atop the ticket while stopping short of calling for Mr. Biden to drop out of the race.
