President Joe Biden may withdraw from the presidential race by the end of the weekend, according to several senior Democratic Party officials who spoke with "Axios."

According to the report, outwardly the president insists on continuing the race, but in private conversations, he struggles to cope with the increasing pressure and poor poll numbers. Statements from his associates and prominent Democratic donors who have lost faith in his victory are also intensifying the pressure.

According to the report, Biden has been told that Trump could win by a landslide, erasing Biden's legacy and damaging the chances of Democratic candidates running for Congress.

In an AP poll published yesterday, about two-thirds of Democrats expressed that they want Biden to withdraw, which has only increased the pressure in the White House. "His choice is between becoming one of the heroes of history or ensuring there will never be a Biden Presidential Library," said one of the president's close friends. "I pray he does the right thing."
