Dave McCormick: Biden Unfit to Be President

(WHTM) – Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Dave McCormick says President Joe Biden is “unfit to serve as commander in chief” after the president announced he would not seek a second term.

Several Republicans in the House of Representatives called on Biden to resign after his campaign announcement on Sunday afternoon.

“If Joe Biden is not fit to run for president, he is not fit to serve as president. He must resign immediately,” Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) wrote on the social media platform X. “November 5 cannot come soon enough.”

McCormick’s opponent, Senator Bob Casey, issued the following statement regarding the president’s decision.

McCormick’s full statement can be read below.

Joe Biden is unfit to serve as commander in chief. Bob Casey is very close to Biden — he knows this — but in typical Casey fashion, he has been feeble in his refusal to admit to the people of Pennsylvania that Biden is simply not up to the job. Keeping his head down when the going gets tough is who Bob Casey is. As a veteran and an American, I believe our troops deserve a commander in chief who is fully capable of doing the job — and Casey’s refusal to stand up for them during President Biden’s apparent decline is despicable. No matter who the Democratic nominee for president ends up being, career politician and habitual liar Bob Casey cannot walk away from the disastrous liberal agenda he has championed for the past three and a half years and throughout his 30 years of collecting a taxpayer-funded salary. Casey has voted 98% of the time for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ failed liberal agenda and tired old ideas, fueling a border crisis that left over 4,000 Pennsylvanians dead from fentanyl last year, violent crime that is terrorizing our communities, record high rent, gas and grocery prices, and regulations that are crushing the Commonwealth’s energy sector. The people of Pennsylvania deserve a strong leader who will go the extra mile to get things done for them, and I’m proud of our growing movement. On November 5th, Pennsylvania will retire empty-handed Bob Casey.
