Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race yesterday. As he ended his campaign, Biden admitted it was in the best interests of the country for him not to seek re-election for a second term. Biden endorsed his VP Kamala Harris to succeed him as the Democratic nominee to take on Donald Trump in November, which she accepted. Biden announced his decision in a one-page letter posted on social media, where he committed to serving until the end of this term in January.
