The president and his backers are scrambling to assure voters of his mental fitness after the presidential debate.
Calls are mounting for US President Joe Biden to step aside as the Democratic Party candidate, following his poor performance in a presidential debate against Republican candidate Donald Trump.
The 81-year-old president’s faltering presentation during the June 27 debate has sparked questions and doubts about his ability to lead for another four years. During the debate, Biden appeared to lose his train of thought and at times looked exhausted or confused.
A damage control campaign has since followed, with the president and his backers scrambling to assure voters that he is fit and won’t be stepping aside.
But some within the Democratic camp seem dissatisfied; the list of representatives calling for a Biden drop-out is now growing.
