Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the presidential race is being linked to the recent release of ‘College Football 25.’
The franchise made a comeback after 10 years and has everyone raving, having dropped this past Friday. It didn’t take Biden long to announce his withdrawal from the race and endorse Kamala Harris.
“While it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term,” he said in a letter published on Sunday.
“My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
