Biden’s exit from the race and endorsement of Harris has caused a monumental upswing in the energy surrounding the upcoming Democratic National Convention in August and the general election in November. Despite the bittersweetness, many fellow Democrats have expressed their sheer gratitude to Biden for deciding to drop out.
The Rev. Al Sharpton, the founder and president of the National Action Network , added that it cannot be forgotten that “a second Trump term is a real threat. The former president has gotten even more dangerous, emboldened by those he put in our nation’s highest courts. With every hateful rhetoric and constant lies, he exposes his deep desire to use his office to exact revenge against anyone who stood against him and for democracy.
“President Joe Biden has steadfastly served as an exemplary public servant for the betterment of our country for over five decades. As our President, Biden has greatly advanced our nation forward; achieving immense progress uplifting all Americans through his historic accomplishments and astute leadership,” Brooklyn Democratic Party Chair and Assemblymember Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn said in a statement.
