According to Odaily Planet Daily, U.S. Democratic Congressman Jamie Raskin wrote a letter to President Joe Biden on July 6, suggesting that he consult with his party colleagues whether to continue to seek re-election.

In the letter, Raskin compared Biden to a tired baseball pitcher, saying there is "no shame in bowing to the enthusiastic appreciation of the crowd when your arms are already tired."

Raskin confirmed the authenticity of the letter on Thursday.
