The act takes place after Joe Biden (81 years old) postponed his campaign commitments after being diagnosed with Covid-19 positive and amid pressure from donors, celebrities and even a group of 35 Democratic Congressmen to step aside in his re-election intentions. The President’s personal physician, who is isolated in his home in Delawarereported that he continues to have mild symptoms but his vital signs are normal and he continues to assume his duties as president.

Other names consulted by the study, although with less popularity or approval, were Gavin Newsom (governor of California) and Gretchen Whitmer (governor of Michigan). Biden’s own entourage claimed that he is “very seriously thinking” about withdrawing his candidacy: “He’s doing some soul searching, I know that for a fact.”
