The former president of the House of Representatives and one of the top executives of the Democratic party Nancy Pelosi he said today that it is up to the president Joe Biden to decide whether to remain in the race for the presidential election in November, after doubts have been expressed about his health.

After his disastrous appearance in the June telefight, against Donald TrumpBiden has repeatedly reiterated that he will remain the nominee of the Democratic party, which nevertheless appears divided.

Pelosi, who remains a major influence in the party, has already said it is “legitimate” to wonder about the president’s health and hinted today that she could decide to retire.

“It’s up to the president to decide whether to run,” he told MSNBC. “We are all urging him to make a decision because time is running out.”

However, she did not take a position: “I want him to do what he decides and that’s how it will be. It doesn’t matter what he decides, we will follow it,” he added.

Many Democratic officials have expressed doubts about Biden’s health, and seven lawmakers have gone so far as to publicly ask him to withdraw his candidacy. They were joined Tuesday night by a senator, Michael Bennett of Colorado.
