Pelosi joins calls on US President Biden to quit race

Former United States speaker of House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi has joined the calls on President Joe Biden to quit the presidential race.

Biden is believed to be mentally unfit to stand in the election against former president Donald Trump.

Equally George Clooney, a Hollywood star, who co-hosted a star-studded fundraiser for Biden last month, withdrew his support with a damning opinion piece written in the New York Times, Reuters said.

Others who have urged Biden to quit the race include Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Peter Welch.

There is a growing anger among lawmakers and donors, as well as growing pressure on down-ballot candidates.
