On June 29, 2024, US President Biden received criticism for his poor performance in the first presidential TV debate, leading to calls within the Democratic Party for him to withdraw, including a strong statement from the New York Times editorial suggesting Biden should step down. However, former President Obama showed support for Biden amidst the calls for his replacement. The NY Times article highlighted Biden's inability to explain his second-term goals, tackle Trump's challenges, or hold him accountable for lies and failures. Biden's campaign team responded to the NY Times editorial by dismissing the call for his withdrawal.
