Democratic Presidential pick ‘should not be about protecting one man’, says rival candidate

The Republican Party was supposed to be divided over a flawed candidate, but instead is marching in lockstep behind Donald Trump and his Vice Presidential pick JD Vance.

The contrast with the Democrats could not be greater. Still recovering from Covid, President Biden is hunkering down with family and advisers in his house in Delaware fending off calls from senior Democrats, including the Obamas and Nancy Pelosi to bow out of the race.

Joe Biden is said to be “seething” at the apparent disloyalty, railing against the elites in his own party and has vowed to continue campaigning next week.

We’re joined by Marianne Williamson, who ran against Biden in 2020 and is running against him again this time round.
