Obama and Pelosi Advise Biden on Diminished Path to Victory

Former US President Barack Obama and ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have informed President Joe Biden that his chances of winning the upcoming election against Donald Trump have greatly diminished. Biden's poor performance in debates and recent COVID-19 diagnosis have contributed to his declining popularity. However, Biden's campaign denies any plans for him to drop out of the race.

Former US President Barack Obama and ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have informed President Joe Biden that his chances of victory against Republican rival Donald Trump have significantly reduced, according to media reports on Thursday.

The Washington Post revealed that in recent days, Obama has voiced concerns about Biden's dwindling path to victory and suggested that the president seriously consider his candidacy's viability for the November 5 election.

This report emerges as senior Democratic leaders formally and informally convey similar messages to Biden, following his poor performance in the June 27 debate and a positive COVID-19 test. Despite these challenges, Biden's campaign insists he will remain the Democratic nominee.
