Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden faces a critical week Monday that will test his standing at home and abroad, as moves to force him to quit his fight for a second White House term gather pace. The 81-year-old has so far defied calls to step aside, after a disastrous debate against election rival Donald Trump last month threw into stark relief fears that he is too old to serve as president until 2029. Allies have warned he needs to do more to convince his party and the public that, as he insists, only he can beat Trump at the ballot box. "This week is going to be absolutely critical," ...

Harrisburg (United States) (AFP) - Embattled US President Joe Biden hit the campaign trail Sunday seeking to reassure voters he was up for a grueling reelection fight, even as more top Democrats reportedly joined the chorus urging him to quit the race. The 81-year-old remained defiant as he hop-scotched across Pennsylvania -- first to the relative safe ground of a predominantly Black church and a campaign field office, and then to a rally with union workers. As Biden arrived in the state capital Harrisburg, reporters shouted questions including whether the Democratic Party was behind him, to w...

Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden heads back out on the campaign trail Sunday, desperate to salvage his re-election bid as senior Democrats meet to discuss growing calls that he quit the White House race. The 81-year-old Democrat kicks off a grueling week with two campaign rallies in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, before hosting the NATO leaders' summit in Washington. He will do so under an increasingly unforgiving spotlight, as pressure mounts for him to drop out after his disastrous debate against Donald Trump last month ignited panic over his age and fitness to serve anoth...

Washington (AFP) - Joe Biden's presidential reelection bid hung in the balance Saturday, after his latest efforts to put a disastrous debate showing behind him failed to silence voices urging him to quit the White House race. Murmurs of dissent within his own Democratic Party have –- in the case of five individual House representatives -- morphed into direct calls for him to drop out. And a number of key donors have threatened to cut off funding if Biden insists on staying the course. "I do not believe that the President can effectively campaign and win against Donald Trump," Angie Craig, the ...

Washington (AFP) - While Americans were celebrating the July 4 holiday with fireworks and feasts, President Joe Biden on Thursday continued to face explosive fallout from his debate against Donald Trump that has left many Democrats hungry for a replacement. The 81-year-old has struggled since last week's debate to tamp down panic among his party, but he won the backing Wednesday of Democratic governors who gathered for an emergency meeting with him at the White House. However, a new and potentially damaging wrinkle emerged on Independence Day, with The New York Times reporting Biden told the g...

Scranton (United States) (AFP) - As residents of Joe Biden's hometown Scranton prepared to mark that most American of holidays -- July 4 -- many were also voicing alarm about the US president following his disastrous debate last week against Donald Trump. "I think he should never have done that (debate)," said Dennis Frison, 70, a retired food service worker as he smoked a cigarette outside the Pennsylvania coal mining town's buzzing Whiskey Dick's bar on Wednesday. Scranton has long been the heart of the political mythology around Biden, recalling his hardscrabble upbringing, repaying his aff...

Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden on Tuesday called on pharmaceutical giants Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly to lower prices for diabetes and weight loss drugs such as Ozempic, saying firms must stop "ripping off the American people." In an article written with Senator Bernie Sanders, Biden said US patients pay several times more than those in Canada, Germany and Denmark for Novo Nordisk's diabetes drugs Ozempic and Wegovy, which can also be used for weight loss. A one-month supply of Ozempic in the United States last year was $936, compared to $169 in Canada and $103 in Germany, according ...

Washington (AFP) - As the Democratic Party fights over whether Joe Biden should step aside before November's presidential election, rival Donald Trump has declined to join the pile-on. Biden's halting debate last week against Trump fuelled concerns among voters around the president's age and ability to govern -- fears that Republicans have often been eager to highlight. Yet the Trump campaign has now pushed back against the idea of Biden, 81, stepping down. Democrats dumping their own candidate would tip them into uncertainty just months before the election -- but it also carries risks for Tru...
