President Joe Biden, in a letter to congressional Democrats, firmly dismissed calls for him to withdraw from the race and urged an end to the internal discord that has fractured the party since his lackluster debate performance.

Biden's letter to congressional Democrats underscored the urgency of unity, stressing that defeating Donald Trump in November is their sole priority. He emphasized that any hesitation or lack of clarity would only benefit Trump. 'We have 42 days to the Democratic Convention and 119 days to the general election,' he wrote, calling for the party to come together.

As pressure mounts from prominent Democrats for Biden to step aside, his staunch supporters argue he is the best candidate to defeat Trump. It’s a pivotal moment for the Democratic Party, with forthcoming conventions and the impending election. Biden challenged his critics to either run against him or unify behind his leadership.
