According to a report by Jonathan Karl of ABC News, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has now reportedly joined the growing number of well-known Democrats who have urged President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential contest.
According to Karl’s report on Wednesday, Schumer and Biden had a conversation over the weekend during which Schumer “forcefully” argued that having him as the nominee would be detrimental to the Democratic Party and the nation at large.

“The pressure from Democratic leaders for Biden to get out of the race is intensifying. In fact, one person who has been out there publicly defending Biden told me just a short while ago Biden is going to see the whole house of cards come down soon.” Karl said.
“As for that meeting in Rehoboth, Delaware, I am told that this was a one-on-one meeting, just the Senate Leader and the president, and that Chuck Schumer forcefully made the case that it would be better for Biden, better for the Democratic Party, and better for the country if he were to bow out of the race.” he continued
