Republican lawmakers are calling for Joe Biden to step down from the Oval Office after the president announced Sunday he will not seek reelection.
“It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President,” Biden said in a statement on Sunday. “And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus soley on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”
Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., said on X that Biden “didn’t go far enough” in resigning from the race.
“If Joe is too weak to stay in the race for the presidency, he should resign as our Commander-in-Chief immediately,” she added.
