According to CNN’s Kayla Tausche, President Joe Biden has no plans to withdraw from the presidential race despite his poor debate performance and a broad leftist media push campaign to do so.
“Lot of questions for the Biden campaign. What are you hearing from the Biden team, Kayla?” John Berman asked Tausche.
“Well, John, the Biden team as of this moment plans to pack up what few wins they had on the debate stage last night. You’ve already seen some of those packaged and posted on social media, and to move on and focus on what’s coming down the pike. There are no plans, I’m told, for the president to drop out of the race and even further, I’m told that the president is still committed to a second debate in September, which is currently scheduled for September 10 and hosted by ABC News, much along the lines of the rules of the debate that was hosted last night.” Tausche stated.
“Now, the adviser that I spoke with said that they’re not putting too much stock in the conversation last night, and that many of the staffers on the campaign and in the White House also worked on President Obama’s reelection in 2012. And they tried to draw the parallel to that first debate. That was a very low performance for President Obama, even he would call it a stinker.” she continued.
“And they said that if you had believed the pundits in the wake of that debate, Mitt Romney would be president, would have been president after that. But of course, the big difference is in the wake of that debate, no one in Obama’s own party was calling for him to resign the office of president. And that is the moment that Democrats find themselves in right now.” she added.
