Joe Biden’s new plan after debate catastrophe: stop doing events at night
- The US president told Democratic governors he just needs to get more sleep but is ready to defeat Trump in the coming election
Joe Biden has a new solution to calm concerns after his abysmal debate against Donald Trump last week: he just needs to get more rest.
Biden – now facing increasing pressure to drop out of the race after his performance last Thursday featured a hoarse voice, meandering thoughts, verbal flubs and vacant expressions – met key Democratic governors on Wednesday to stamp out naysayers.
He again brushed off criticism of the debate as a one-off mistake, according to CNN and The New York Times.
And the 81-year-old president said he is still ready to defeat Trump. He told the governors he just needs to get more sleep and stop holding events after 8pm, according to the outlets.
(Biden’s disastrous live debate last week began at 9pm.)
The solution was not well-received by governors present for the statement, according to CNN. Biden’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider about the reports.
