Biden Told Ally That He Is Weighing Whether to Continue in the Race
Biden Told Ally That He Is Weighing Whether to Continue in the Race
The president’s conversation is the first indication that he is seriously considering whether he can recover after a devastating performance on the debate stage in Atlanta on Thursday.
Honestly this is the kinda news people share when then want us to lose hope in our candidate.
“Biden told a key ally” who then apparently ran to tell the news media? What kinda key ally would do that?
He should drop out now, so someone better has a chance
The problem is that others aren't likely to be more electable
Well it's not our fault Democrats constantly pick losers that neither the young ignorants nor the old crotchety morons want to vote for.
michelle obama is more likely to be elected than biden. People who vote Democrat are done with biden and all of his conservative policy
This is the best summary I could come up with:
President Biden has told a key ally that he knows he may not be able to salvage his candidacy if he cannot convince the public in the coming days that he is up for the job after a disastrous debate performance last week.
The president, who the ally emphasized is still deeply in the fight for re-election, understands that his next few appearances heading into the holiday weekend — including an interview scheduled for Friday with George Stephanopoulos of ABC News and campaign stops in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — must go well.
A top adviser to Mr. Biden, who also spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the situation, said the president was “well aware of the political challenge he faces.”
He is also continuing to reach out to people he has long trusted and has told at least one person that he is open to the possibility that his plans to move on from his debate performance — and flip the focus back to his challenger, Mr. Trump — may not work.
Several allies of Mr. Biden, who has huddled with the family and advisers since the debate on Thursday, have underscored that the president is still in the fight of his political life and largely sees this moment as a chance to come back from being counted out, as he has done many times throughout his half-century career.
But he is also cleareyed, they said, about his uphill battle to convince voters, donors and the political class that his debate performance was an anomaly.
