Who won the debate? Democrats described President Joe Biden 's debate performance on Thursday as anywhere from "wobbly" to "disappointing."
Presidential historian Mark Updegrove singled out one Biden stumble when he appeared lost in an answer about tax reform, ultimately concluding with the confounding remark that "we beat Medicare," as "the worst debate moment in U.S. presidential and vice-presidential history" and said the road to recovery would be difficult -- but not impossible.
"There's no one who saw the debate last night and thinks that President Biden had a great night. I also know there's no one who can look at the record of the Trump administration and think that Donald Trump had a good presidency," Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, the subject of similar whispers, said to reporters Friday. "I think we're going to have another four years of President Biden and Vice President Harris.
One senior Democratic strategist expressed skepticism that Biden's current team "will admit a mistake" and suggested, "perhaps it's time for some staff changes and infusing the inner circle with fresh perspective." "He'd have to do it across a lot of venues," added another adviser to a politician discussed as a future presidential contender. "He might even have to do one on Fox."
"I know I'm not a young man, to state the obvious," he told a Raleigh crowd. "I don't walk as easy as I used to. I don't speak as smoothly as I used to. I don't debate as well as I used to. But I know what I do know: I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. And I know how to do this job."
