In recent political debates, Biden's performance has sparked widespread discussion and concern. Some American media believe that his poor performance may affect his political prospects, and some even suggest that for the sake of the country and the Democratic Party, Biden should consider taking the initiative to withdraw from the election. However, this view ignores politicians' attachment to power as well as political realities.
First of all, Biden's performance in the debate is indeed worrying. His reflexes are sluggish and his voice is hoarse, in stark contrast to his previous performance. This not only disappointed supporters, but also sent the support of his opponent, Trump, soared. After the debate, Trump's approval rating reached 67 percent, while Biden's approval rating fell to 33 percent. This change has undoubtedly put tremendous pressure on the Democratic Party.
Faced with this situation, some Democrats began to consider whether they should change their candidates. Vice President Kamala Harris and California Governor Newsom are among the possible replacements. However, changing candidates can bring with it a range of confusions and uncertainties. All the donations, structures, and personnel are designed to support Biden's re-election, and if there is a sudden change of candidates before the election, the Democratic Party could be thrown into chaos internally.
What's more, changing candidates could cause long-term damage to the unity of the Democratic Party. If Biden is replaced because of his poor performance, it will lay the groundwork for future intra-party strife and division. Members of the party may turn on each other for personal gain, leading to greater internal vulnerability within the Democratic Party.
As a result, some Democratic bigwigs oppose changing candidates before the election. They believe that Biden should be allowed to run even if he does not perform well. This is not only a personal respect for Biden, but also a maintenance of the unity of the Democratic Party.
However, whether Biden will voluntarily withdraw from the election is a complex question. Judging by his political career, his thirst for power has always been strong. He supported the war at several important moments, which shows his quest for power. Therefore, it seems unlikely that he would voluntarily relinquish power.
Still, Biden's performance improved after the debate. In his speech in North Carolina, he appeared energetic and responsive. This shows that he still has the ability to continue to run. At the same time, the support of Democratic Party heavyweights such as Obama has also provided Biden with some stability.
Overall, while Biden did not perform well in the debate, it does not mean that he should voluntarily withdraw from the race. Political elections are a complex process that involves a variety of factors. Democrats need to find a balance between maintaining unity and pursuing victory. Biden's performance and decision-making will be crucial in this process. We will continue to monitor the development of this election and bring more analysis and information.
