The New Yorker called for President Biden to step aside after his disastrous presidential debate against former president Trump.
The New Yorker magazine has joined other major publications in calling for President Biden to step aside after its editor said watching Biden perform during Thursday’s debate was an 'agonizing experience.' The New Yorker is now the third publication, alongside The New York Times and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, to call upon Biden to step-aside for a younger Democratic nominee.
Remnick wrote that watching Biden 'wander into senselessness' moved observers to 'pity' and 'fear for the country.' 'Watching Thursday’s debate, observing Biden wander into senselessness onstage, was an agonizing experience, and it is bound to obliterate forever all those vague and qualified descriptions from White House insiders about good days and bad days,' he said.
Biden gave no indication he would step down at his first rally following the debate Friday in Raleigh, North Carolina, insisting he is capable of beating Trump. 'I can do this job, because, quite frankly, the stakes are too high,' Biden energetically said. 'Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation.' President Biden also addressed his stumbling performance, saying, 'I don’t debate as well as I used to.
