Nate Silver Calls for Biden to Resign, Citing Concerns Over Competence

The prominent pollster suggests Kamala Harris should assume the presidency for Biden's final two months, referencing critical global challenges and recent behavior.

  • Nate Silver questioned President Joe Biden's competence to lead, urging him to resign and allow Vice President Kamala Harris to serve the remainder of his term.
  • Silver's remarks followed a Washington Post report detailing Biden's limited public engagement and avoidance of reporters during a recent South America trip.
  • The call for resignation comes as Biden faces scrutiny over his decision to permit Ukraine to use U.S. long-range missiles in strikes against Russia, raising fears of escalating conflict.
  • Biden's age and mental fitness have been ongoing concerns, further amplified by his withdrawal from the 2024 election and a poor debate performance against Donald Trump.
  • Silver has consistently criticized Biden's leadership, previously suggesting Democrats would have been better served had Biden stepped aside earlier in favor of another candidate.
