‘I’m Staying in the Race,’ Biden Declares

While speaking at a campaign event in Wisconsin, President Biden reaffirmed his pledge to stay in the 2024 presidential race, despite a weak debate performance last week and calls from some House Democrats to drop out.

“They’re trying to push me out of the race. Well, let me say this clearly as I can. I’m staying in the race.” [cheering] Crowd: “Let’s go Joe!” “Now, you probably heard we had a little debate last week. I can’t say it was my best performance.” “We love you, Joe.” “I’m not letting one 90-minute debate wipe out three and a half years of work. You probably also noticed a lot of discussion about my age. I know I look 40. [laughter] I keep seeing all those stories about I’m being too old. What do you think? Do you think I’m too old to restore Roe v. Wade to the law of the land?” Crowd: “No.” “Do you think I’m too old to ban assault weapons again?” Crowd: “No.” “You think I’m too old to beat Donald Trump?” Crowd: “No.” “I can hardly wait anyway. Donald Trump isn’t just a convicted criminal. He’s a one-man crime wave.”
