Citizens of U.S. allied countries are asking leaders to 'Do a Biden' and step aside for new talent: Report

In stepping aside as the presidential nominee after his debate with former President Donald Trump, President Joe Biden has seemingly set an exciting trend for allied countries of the United States.

According to the New York Post, citizens in a range of countries are asking their leaders why they aren't "doing a Biden" and stepping aside to let fresh and better talent take the reins.

A number of U.S. allied countries, including Japan, Canada, and Germany, are all led by politicians who are suffering in the polls as Biden did before he was ousted by his own party.

The Post noted:

Leaders in three allied countries are all dogged by lackluster approval ratings from voters and are facing elections in the not-too-distant future: German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, 66, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, 67, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, 52.

One obvious example of that came via a headline from the German news outlet Der Spiegel, which asked, "Why isn’t Scholz doing a Biden?"

The German news outlet explained why it would be a better situation for the country if its leader would follow in Biden's footsteps and step aside before the next election.

"The chancellor could follow the example of US President Joe Biden: Instead of clinging to power and letting himself be taken apart piece by piece in the coming months, he is clearing the way for a new political start," the outlet wrote.

Canadian media outlet CBC posed a similar question to their audience after Biden was pushed out of the presidential election by several high-profile Democrats, asking: "Could Trudeau go next.?"

Yet another similar situation is happening in Japan, as noted by the Post:

Recently, “Japanization” author William Pesek mused that Kishida was “having a Biden moment” after he stepped down at the helm of his party, the Liberal Democratic Party.

“Biden is out, and Kishida should retire quickly and honorably, too,” a LDP official said to Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun.

Officials in those countries, including Japan, are closely watching the outcome of Biden's departure.

"We need to closely watch the impact of [Biden’s withdrawal] on the party leadership race," a member of Kishida’s cabinet told a Japanese news outlet.

The aforementioned U.S. allies all face similar economic situations as Americans do under Biden, and many are ready for a leadership change -- anything to break whatever nightmarish cycle we're in now.

Perhaps party leaders in those countries will take notes and figure out how to convince their current leaders to step aside for real change -- or force them out like what happened to Biden.

Only time will tell.
