Leading Republicans are urging President Joe Biden to immediately step down from office following his recent announcement that he would terminate his reelection campaign.

The 81-year old president stated in a public letter, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.” Although no specific reason was provided for this abrupt halt in his campaign, declining poll numbers against former President Donald Trump appear to be a significant factor.

Analysts have noted that during his presidency, Biden has exhibited several signs of cognitive decline. Many point towards his recent stumble in a debate with Trump as strong evidence of this. Prominent Republicans, thus, are urging immediate resignation due to these perceived impairments of the president.

House Speaker Mike Johnson made a statement highlighting how Democrats’ decision influenced this unfortunate turn of events: “forced the Democrat nominee off the ballot, just over 100 days before the election.” drawing attention to Vice President Kamala Harris’s handling of crucial affairs such as border control and immigration issues.

Johnson further insists “If Joe Biden is not fit to run for President, he is not fit to serve as President.” Other Republican leaders such as Sen. Steve Daines expressed their concern about Joe Biden’s ability to effectively execute his duties around national security also calling him unfit for presidency.

Senators Roger Marshall went on record stating that if Biden cannot serve another term or even campaign effectively, there should be apprehensions about him having access to nuclear codes and serving out the current term.

Several influencers within the GOP have resonated similar thoughts including Elise Stefanik who insisted on resignation considering democratic party’s desperate attempts at hiding Biden’s unfitness. Sarah Huckabee Sanders articulated quite simply – “Not fit to run for president, not fit to serve as president.” Jim Banks emphasized on immediate impeachment proceedings if resignation does not come soon enough.

A wealth of other Republicans have joined this chorus, calling for immediate resignation, including Sen. Rick Scott who conveyed that if Biden can’t run, he certainly cannot serve as president for the rest of his term.

Finally, Tommy Tuberville stated that the media and bureaucracy have misguided the American people about President Biden’s cognitive capabilities from very beginning.
