America's most influential newspaper, The New York Times, called in an editorial Friday for President Joe Biden to step aside and allow another Democrat to challenge Donald Trump for the White House in November, reports Daily Sun.
Describing Biden as "the shadow of a great public servant," the newspaper's editorial board -- which is separate from its newsroom -- said Thursday's debate between the president and Trump proved the 81-year-old "failed his own test."
His determination to run again is a "reckless gamble," it said, adding: "the greatest public service Biden can now perform is to announce that he will not continue to run for re-election."
