Biden's appearance at a campaign rally comes amid rumblings of replacing him as the Democratic party nominee for the US election.

US President Joe Biden speaking to the crowd during a campaign event in North Carolina on June 28, the day after his disastrous debate with Republican rival Donald Trump.

Mr Biden’s team was in damage-control mode after the June 27 debate when he often hesitated, tripped over words and lost his train of thought – exacerbating fears about his ability to serve another term.But the president failed to counter his bombastic rival, who delivered an unchallenged reel of false or misleading statements about everything from the economy to immigration.“Did you see Trump last night? My guess is he set a new record for the most lies told in the single debate,” Biden said.

Trump addressed the chances of Mr Biden being replaced by another candidate, saying “I don’t really believe that because he does better in polls than any of the Democrats.”
