As the US presidential elections approach, the billionaire donors of the Democratic Party are worried about the candidacy of President Joe Biden, Anadolu Agency wrote. Criticism of the 81-year-old Biden's candidacy intensified after he failed to prove that concerns about his age were unfounded.

Democrat Biden and his Republican opponent, former President Donald Trump, who are competing for the US presidential election on November 5, shared their strengths in the first live debate on CNN on the night of June 27.

During the debate, Biden, 81, came under fire after failing to prove that concerns about his age were unfounded.

After that, the Democratic Party and some pro-Biden media outlets called on Biden to "refuse to run for president." Among them are 7 members of the US Congress from the Democratic Party.

A growing number of billionaire donors who have donated thousands of dollars to the Democratic Party want Biden out of the race.

For his part, Biden admitted that his health is not what it used to be, but he said that he is the best alternative to Trump and will not withdraw from the race.

In particular, Haim Saban, the founder of the production company BVS Entertainment, one of the main donors of the Democrats, stated that Biden and those who support him "have gone off track", while another donor, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, was the first to publicly call for Biden to withdraw from the presidential race.

One of the biggest donors to the Democratic Party, actor George Clooney, also joined the group openly calling for Biden to withdraw his candidacy by publishing an article in the NYT.

"Biden wasn't the Biden of 2010 or even 2020, but he was the Biden we saw on that live broadcast," Clooney said, recalling being with Biden at a fundraiser three weeks ago. said.
