"I think it was a smart move and a smart decision on his part to step aside and kind of let somebody younger, more vigorous go up against somebody like Donald Trump"

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Eric Boylan, Local Resident:
"I was definitely a little bit upset to hear that he’s, you know, dropped out of the race at this point in time. I think it’s, I think he’s probably being pushed out, which kind of makes me a little bit sad. I think he’s a good man. I think he’s a good father. I think he was a very good leader. But I do kind of also agree that his, his time has come and it’s time to step aside and let somebody, somebody rise within those ranks."
5. Cars drive through Biden Street intersection
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Gerardo Cedeno, Visiting Scranton:
"I wasn’t shocked. I’d be lying if I said I would. Just because, you know, I think the state of Biden’s health. He’s not in shape whatsoever to be making the presidential calls. So for what it is, I personally think it’s a good thing. I can only hope that, you know, the Democratic Party finds, someone who’s of a better fit."
7. Sign: Biden street
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Jennifer Aglialoro, Local Resident:
"I’m really, I’m shocked. But I am also very concerned about his health and well-being, and I feel like, I don’t know if anybody’s really taking that seriously. I feel like they need to really look at that, because I don’t think that he. I don’t think that he has everything together that he had, you know, four years ago. But I, I’m shocked because I don’t know who they’re going to put in his place. I’m really I don’t know if it’s going to be Kamala Harris, I don’t know if they had somebody in mind, but yeah, just kind of shocked."
9. Pan, houses on street
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Jennifer Aglialoro, Local Resident:
"I think that it’s the right move for him. I definitely do. I don’t think he has another four years in him, to be able to be the president, but I didn’t expect them to do this now."

"It’s about time. It’s about time. He should have dropped out a long time ago. He never should, he should leave the White House. He’s not mentally stable enough to run this country."
13. People gathered for musical performance
14. SOUNDBITE (English) Kristine Stoll, Local Resident:
"I don’t think it was right what was happening to him. I think his wife is a disgusting person. The way she allowed him to go on and go out there and make a fool out of himself. It’s not his fault. I feel bad for him. So, and it scares me that he has the four last numbers of the nuclear weapons, too. That scares me a lot because you don’t know."

STORYLINE:
President Joe Biden announced Sunday that he is dropping his reelection bid against Donald Trump, in a social media post that sent political shockwaves around the country and threw an element of turmoil into the election just months before voters go to the polls.
Biden’s decision came on the heels of a poor debate performance that prompted many rank-and-file Democratic lawmakers to urge him to withdraw from the race. The president said he will address the nation later this week “in more detail about my decision.”
“It’s about time, he should have dropped out a long time ago,” said Stoll, 56.
