US President Joe Biden rejected calls to withdraw from running for re-election following a lackluster performance at the first presidential debate, where calls for a replacment within the Democratic Party increased. In an open letter to party members, Biden firmly opposed stepping aside and urged an end to the internal turmoil, emphasizing the collective goal of defeating Republican candidate Donald Trump in November. Despite facing criticism from some party members, Biden challenged them to either run against him at the Democratic National Convention or to unite in supporting his candidacy against Trump. This ongoing dramatic political saga unfolds just over a month before the Democratic National Convention and a week before the Republican National Convention where Trump is set to be nominated.
