First Lady Jill Biden embarked on a whirlwind campaign tour visiting three states on Monday, attempting to push her husband Joe across the finish line as he sits on the sidelines.
Addressing calls from Democrats for Biden to step down during an event in Wilmington, North Carolina, Jill forcefully declared, “For all the talk out there about this race, Joe has made it clear that he is all in. That’s the decision he has made… I am all in too.”

Jill will also appear Monday at campaign events in Columbus, Georgia, and Tampa, Florida, where Democrat city council member Alan Clendenin on Sunday urged Biden to drop out of the race, stating, “I believe it is in the best interest of our country and the world that President Joe Biden step aside and allow Vice President Kamala Harris to carry forward his agenda as our Democratic nominee.”
Florida Republican party chairman Evan Power referred to Jill as the “enabler-in-chief of an absent minded administration that has left the border open, allowed our country to be less safe, and has resulted in a world on fire,” according to the Tampa Bay Times.
The First Lady’s campaign appearances fuel concerns Joe’s being forced to stay in the race by family members unfazed they may be committing elder abuse by keeping him the party’s nominee.
Meanwhile, Biden on Monday issued a message to “fellow Democrats on Capitol Hill” explaining why he’ll remain in the 2024 presidential race despite calls to pass the torch.
