Just yesterday, the Biden reelection team also swatted away calls for the president to bow out. They feel the “horse race” remains unchanged and will continue working to win the votes of the American people.
At this time, Biden stands as the de facto nominee of the Democrat Party. He’s expected to officially accept the nomination in August when the Democrats hold their convention.
Big names like former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, and others have made a point of showing support for Biden. During a conversation with the media, Newsom even described calls for the president to step down as “unhelpful.”
Biden addresses his poor debate performance
On Friday, the president traveled to North Carolina to rally with supporters. It was during this appearance that Biden admitted he doesn’t speak, walk, or debate as well as he did during his younger years.
In spite of that, the president insisted he knows how to tell the truth, get the job done, and determine right from wrong. Will this carry weight with the American people? Only time will tell.
