MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thousands of dollars have been placed on the possibility of President Joe Biden standing down as the Democratic candidate in 2024, as the incumbent's approval ratings remain low.
It comes amid low approval ratings, concerns about his age, criticism of his handling of a number of crises and remarks made by Biden himself.
Previously, Biden, 81, said he doubtfed he would run for a second term if Trump had decided not to enter the race to try to win back the White House in 2024.
Biden's polling numbers are struggling and a survey conducted by the American Research Group from December 17-20 indicated 57 percent of responders disapprove of his presidency.
Several polls also show Trump pulling ahead of Biden in a head-to-head, according to analysis website FiveThirtyEight.
An alternative in Vice President Kamala Harris may not be a preferred choice for voters, with her own approval rating averaging around 37 percent.
