The President of the United States, Joe Biden, has announced that next week he will resume his campaign events for the November elections. This announcement comes after Biden tested positive for covid-19 and was forced to stay at his home in Delaware. The news has generated various reactions in the political and media spheres, especially due to the increased pressure for the Democratic president to end his candidacy. In a statement issued by his campaign, Biden expressed his enthusiasm for returning to the electoral campaign next week. However, this announcement comes at a time when voices calling for the president to reconsider his candidacy are growing, arguing that his age and health could be obstacles to effectively carrying out the office. Some members of Congress have publicly urged Biden to "pass the torch" to someone younger and with more energy. Biden's campaign took the opportunity to criticize the "dark vision" that, according to them, former President Donald Trump outlined during his acceptance speech at the Republican Party convention in Milwaukee. Trump, in his speech, addressed topics such as the recent assassination attempt he endured and national unity, but also included references to conspiracy theories about electoral fraud and maintained his anti-immigrant rhetoric. The call for Biden to withdraw from the electoral race intensified after the debate on June 27 against Trump, in which the Democratic president showed signs of fatigue and had difficulty completing some sentences. These displays of physical weakness have fueled concerns about Biden's ability to meet the demands of the presidential office, especially in a time of national and international crisis. The resumption of campaign events by Biden raises questions about his health and his ability to face a demanding and challenging electoral campaign. Despite the questioning and pressure to resign from his candidacy, Biden has reiterated his commitment to the democratic process and his determination to compete in the November elections. The final decision regarding his participation in the race lies with him and his campaign team. Amid the uncertainty and controversy surrounding Biden's figure, attention is focused on how he will respond to the challenges posed by the final stretch of the electoral campaign. With Trump as a formidable rival and a divided and polarized electorate, Biden faces a complex political situation that requires clear and effective strategies to consolidate his position and win the support of undecided voters. Next week will be crucial for the future of Biden's campaign and his aspiration to reach the presidency of the United States. His campaign events will be closely watched by his political adversaries, the media, and the general public. The decision to resume his political activities presents challenges and opportunities that could define the course of the electoral race and the political destiny of Joe Biden.
