(MENAFN) Former President Donald Trump has weighed in on the ongoing speculation surrounding President Joe Biden's future in the 2024 presidential race, predicting that Biden is unlikely to yield to pressure to withdraw from the contest. Trump, speaking in a phone interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, remarked on Biden's perceived determination, attributing it to the president's personal ego and steadfastness.

Since their widely scrutinized debate two weeks ago, during which Biden's performance was scrutinized for signs of frailty and confusion, Trump has observed a flurry of media scrutiny and internal deliberations within the Democratic Party about Biden's candidacy. Liberal media outlets have increasingly questioned Biden's mental acuity, while Democratic donors and lawmakers reportedly discuss potential strategies to persuade the 81-year-old president to suspend his reelection campaign.

Trump emphasized to Hannity that Biden's resolve to continue in the race could pose challenges for the Democratic Party, despite internal pressures. He acknowledged Biden's assertion, made in a recent MSNBC interview, that he is "not going anywhere," reinforcing his commitment to stay in the race. Biden further reaffirmed his candidacy in a letter to Democrats in Congress, underscoring his belief that he remains the strongest candidate to defeat Trump in the upcoming election.

Reflecting on Biden's overwhelming support from Democratic delegates in this year's symbolic primary elections, Trump noted that Biden holds considerable influence within the party. Speculation about potentially removing Biden from office via constitutional means, Trump suggested, underscores the complexities and stakes of the upcoming presidential contest.

As Biden navigates internal and external pressures regarding his candidacy, the political landscape remains dynamic and uncertain, shaped by ongoing debates over leadership, electoral strategies, and the personal motivations of key figures in American politics.
