President Joe Biden is still dealing with the political fallout of his weak performance at the 2024 presidential debate, while former President Donald Trump is celebrating a big win after the Supreme Courts ruling in his immunity case.
The two presumptive presidential nominees met face-to-face for the first time in the 2024 election cycle at a debate hosted by CNN last Thursday. Bidens unsteady performance there has dominated the headlines since, leading some Democrats to privately question if he should step aside as the Democratic nominee.
On Monday, the Supreme Court handed Trump a victory when it released its opinion on Trump v. U.S., which declares that Trump has complete legal immunity for actions during his presidency that were official in nature, although not for those that were unofficial.
The ruling makes it highly unlikely that Trumps trial on charges related to inciting the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, will take place before the November election. It also complicates his other ongoing legal proceedings, including his recent hush money conviction .

That person on the stage there was not capable of governing the United States of America, Ryan said in reference to Biden.
I think we have to recognize that as quickly as possible, rip the Band-Aid off, Ryan told CBS News' \"America Decides.\" We have a great vice president who has three and a half years of seasoning in the highest levels of government. She would be a great campaigner, energize our base.
Harris continues to stand by the president.
Joe Biden is our nominee, she told CBS. We beat Trump once and were going to beat him again, period.
Biden and Harris will have lunch together at the White House today, according to CNN.","source":"","title":"Rip The Band-Aid Off: Ex-Democratic Rep.

Rip The Band-Aid Off: Ex-Democratic Rep. Calls On Party To Back Harris
Former Ohio Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan repeated his call for Biden to drop out of the race following his poor debate performance as he urged Democrats to get behind Vice President Kamala Harris.
That person on the stage there was not capable of governing the United States of America, Ryan said in reference to Biden.
I think we have to recognize that as quickly as possible, rip the Band-Aid off, Ryan told CBS News' "America Decides." We have a great vice president who has three and a half years of seasoning in the highest levels of government. She would be a great campaigner, energize our base.
Harris continues to stand by the president.
Joe Biden is our nominee, she told CBS . We beat Trump once and were going to beat him again, period.
Biden and Harris will have lunch together at the White House today, according to CNN .
That person on the stage there was not capable of governing the United States of America, Ryan said in reference to Biden.
