Another appointment also had to be canceled.

Biden wants to be confirmed as president after the November elections. However, several party friends have called for his withdrawal from his candidacy since his poor performance in the televised duel against Donald Trump, in which Biden, according to the government, had a cold.
Following several other party members, prominent Democratic House member Adam Schiff called on Biden to drop out of the presidential raceSchiff, who is running for Senate, said he had serious concerns about Biden’s ability to defeat Republican presidential nominee Trump in November. Biden has had great success, but it’s time to make way for someone else. “The stakes are simply too high,” he warned.
