The much anticipated event around the World just happened: US President Joe Biden is standing down from the US Presidential elections. It is an historic event in the US Political history. President Joe Biden announced his decision to stand down and end his candidacy for re-election on July 21, 2024, stating that it is in the interest of the country. With the decision, a first in the US political history, the eyes are now pointed to the potential candidates and a never see competition between the selected Democratic candidate and former US President Donald Trump.
In the last weeks, an increasing pressure from key leaders from the Democratic Party was on US President Joe Biden to step down from the race, following a stumbling performance during a debate against Republican Donald Trump in late June 2024.
After the challenging debate, the main question had become whether Joe Biden would stay as a candidate. In fact, the stumbling performance by President Joe Biden had raised concerns among Democrats, with mostly the answers at the start of the debate being questionable and the continued stumbling and some incoherence until the end pushing for calls for a potential replacement.
Hence, based on several reactions in main and social media, democrats, including key leaders, and other voters have been wondering whether President Joe Biden could step down and be replaced as the party’s presidential candidate. Then, after the assassination attempt against Donald Trump and Joe Biden's COVID infection, the dynamics became even more complicated.

Who is the New Democratic Candidate? Kamala Harris or another?
The decision by Joe Biden was also communicated in a letter he posted to his social media account. In the lettes, he said:.
"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 solely on fulfilling the duties as President for the remainder of my term".
He also promised to address the nation on his decision in next week. He praised Vice President Kamala Harris, as "extraordinary partner". and actually supported her as the New Democratic Candidate nominee:" Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year".
The decision by US President Joe Biden presents more challenges for Democrats, as the elections are scheduled in the next four months. After the decision to stand down, the main question has now become: Will Vice-President Kamala Harris be confirmed as the new candidate and who will be her running mate?
But there is also another key question: What is next on the Republican Party side and Donald Trump?
