A second major newspaper editorial calls for Trump to step down or for the party to replace him as unfit.
The Philadelphia Inquirer is the latest.
To serve his country, Donald Trump should leave the race
Biden had a horrible night on Thursday. But the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump.
The Washington Post previously had an editorial about Trump being unfit and should step down or be removed.
The New York Times has called for Biden to leave the race.In addition to their main editorial, Maureen Dowd, who has been a frequent critic of Biden for years, says the debate was between the ghastly Trump and the ghostly Biden and calls for Biden to serve his country by stepping down.
Here is a gifted link.

He’s surrounded by opportunistic enablers. He has created a reality distortion field where we’re told not to believe what we’ve plainly seen. His hubris is infuriating. He says he’s doing this for us, but he’s really doing it for himself.
I’m not talking about Donald Trump. I’m talking about the other president.
In Washington, people often become what they start out scorning. This has happened to Joe Biden. In his misguided quest for a second term that would end when he’s 86, he has succumbed to behavior redolent of Trump. And he is jeopardizing the democracy he says he wants to save.
