Inside Biden's unprecedented exit from the presidential race

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : It comes as Trump is at his strongest point in the campaign, coming out of a completely unified Republican National Convention with a base rallying around him after the attempt on his life.
38% : The adviser said the president "was not dug in" but was studying all of the data coming in and became convinced he would "weigh down" the ticket and be a distraction and complication to defeat Trump.
35% : No policy or statement or criticism of Trump could change that.
33% : He insisted he could beat Trump.
16% : But in the end, the pressure on Biden from party leaders, rank-and-file lawmakers and donors - and the polling showing the perilous and potentially insurmountable path Biden faced amid a growing deficit with Trump - ultimately proved too much.
16% : CNN reported Wednesday that Pelosi privately told Biden that polling showed he could not defeat Trump and that he could destroy Democrats' chances of winning the House in November.
12% : A brief respite from demands Biden exit doesn't last More Democrats had been expected to publicly call for Biden's exit that weekend, but the chatter came to a halt in an instant when an attempted assassin's bullet came within millimeters of killing Trump at his Butler, Pennsylvania, rally.
