Pass the Torch, a new grassroots group calling for Biden to step out of the 2024 presidential race, held a rally outside the White House on Saturday.
“Thank you, Joe; it’s time to go!” the group chanted outside the gates. Organizers say approximately 100 people were in attendance.
President Biden has faced intense pressure from members of his own party to forfeit the Democratic nomination since his disastrous debate performance at the end of June. As of Saturday, 35 Democrats have publicly called for Biden to step aside.
In a statement issued before the rally, Pass the Torch explained their movement is grounded in concerns that Biden is unable to defeat former President Trump, characterizing November as an “existential election.”
“We need a presidential nominee who has the best chance to beat Trump, and an increasingly large majority of Democrats believe that President Biden is not that candidate and should step aside,” wrote Aaron Regunberg, a steering committee member of the organization. “That’s why we’re organizing something that’s harder to ignore—a demonstration in front of the White House.”
“Biden has done an amazing job the past four years,” Claudia Nachega, a 19-year-old attendee from Maryland told The Hill. “I also think that with Biden’s falling poll numbers, it’s definitely time to have a new Democratic nominee that we can be sure that will win in November.
“That’s why I showed up today to ask Joe Biden to pass the torch so that young people especially can rally behind a new candidate.”
Some, including the progressive wing of the Democratic party, have characterized those calling for the president to drop out as Democratic elites.

I remember her as having a darker tan. Odd.
Eeewww..
It could be worse.
You could've called the president of Ukraine "President Putin."
Wait... He actually did that.
Hey, I actually thought who should be more offended? The real VP, a Justice on the SCOTUS, or Trump. Then I decided two of these people are black and are being dumped in a conversation including the bad old orange man. If I were them I’d be pissed at the senile old white man. Then I awoke from the nightmare and realized the crazy old fart really said it. As an American , it’s enough to make you weep or just laugh and Vote Trump!
Dumbasses. Not recovering. Just hunkered down. But everyone knows he spends every weekend in Delaware
...he RATS replaced him ILLEGALLY very late in the race.

He can’t possibly believe that. Biden represents this fools demented self serving fake made up religion and he’s incapable of rational thought. Useful idiots is perfect for them.

Soooo... nothing about doing it for the best of the country. It’s ONLY about winning. These are the same doofuses —doofi? — who scream about “democracy!” Democracy is all about ignoring the votes already cast by the voters, dontcha know?
