In America, there are rumors among Democrats that at the convention in August 2024, Biden will “make a grand gesture” and withdraw his candidacy from the presidential election. Instead, he will propose to nominate former first lady Michelle Obama, Der Spiegel reports.

This possibility is being discussed in Washington so seriously that the Democratic Party has included Michelle Obama in its public opinion polls, the publication notes.

The agency writes that Obama is warmly received at all events in which she participates.

In addition, it is claimed that two-thirds of Americans believe that 81-year-old Biden is too old to lead the United States for another four years, the publication says. But many people are also afraid of the 77-year-old Trump, who has court cases pending against him.
