-- President Joe Biden said he is committed to winning the November election, brushing aside mounting calls from prominent Democrats to step aside following his disastrous debate against Republican Donald Trump .Biden, 81, on Friday acknowledged limitations caused by his age and his sputtering performance the day prior against Trump. But he declared he was up to the task of serving another four years in the White House.
“I know how to get things done, and I know what millions of Americans know — when you get knocked down you get back up,” the president said. Biden’s comments, however, made it clear he will not accede to pressure to make way for another Democratic nominee. His comments also signaled he is unlikely to drastically change his campaign’s approach, despite committing one of the biggest missteps in modern political history at Thursday’s debate.
First lady Jill Biden, speaking at a fundraiser in Greenwich Village hosted by author Adriana Trigiani, acknowledged the debate was on the minds of attendees — but relayed the private support she had offered her husband. “I thought to myself Donald Trump isn’t just a convicted felon, Donald Trump is a one-man crime wave,” Biden said.
