According to local sources on June 30, the current US President Joe Biden was "sober" aware of his own poor performance after the debate and was ashamed of it.
The report quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that after the confrontation with Donald Trump, Biden was in a low mood, and he understood that he had had multiple stutters and confusion of thought, which had taken a serious blow to his self-confidence.
After the debate, Biden also participated in several events, including a campaign trip to Raleigh, North Carolina, and then flew to New York to participate in two fundraisers. While Biden raised his arms in Raleigh and shouted that he was fit for the presidency, wider voices were calling for him to withdraw from the election.
Trump predicts that his old opponent will not withdraw from the race, after all, it is in his interest for Biden to continue to run, but the Democratic Party is now shaken, and some have publicly expressed their hope that Biden will withdraw.
There is information that Biden and his family went to Camp David, where they discussed the future of the 81-year-old president.
According to the "Daily Mail" news on the morning of July 1 local time, Biden was believed by his family to "continue to fight", and many people, including his wife Jill Biden, felt that although the debate performance was not ideal, it did not mean that he was not capable of continuing to campaign.
According to people familiar with the matter, in the Biden family, the person who most hopes that Biden can continue to run is his son Hunter Biden, "Although it is generally believed that Jill, as the first lady, is the person who can best influence the president's position, this time the person who is most enthusiastic about getting Biden to run is Hunter." ”
It is reported that Hunt claimed that he wanted all Americans to see that his father was still what he knew, that is, energetic and able to command.
Despite his own troubles, Hunter has been advising his father, and he doesn't want the nation to see his father faltering and old like he did in Thursday's debate. On the contrary, he wants Americans to see people like him, scrappy and powerful," the source said.
Hunter is the eldest son of Biden and his late ex-wife, and he was originally not expected much from his father, but after his younger brother Beau Biden unfortunately died of a brain tumor, he seemed to have become the "only heir" of the Biden family, even if he did a lot of wrong things, even crimes, his father still supported him.
Just last month, on the 11th of last month, Hunter was convicted by the Delaware Superior Court on three counts of illegal possession of a firearm, becoming the first child of a president in U.S. history to be convicted. He will be convicted in September and may go to jail. Biden has already said he will not exercise his presidential authority to pardon his son.
The general attitude of the American people towards Biden's family's desire to let him "continue to fight" is that they are purely motivated by personal interests, "and they don't want to give up the rights they enjoy, so it is really selfish enough to let an elderly person who is confused from time to time continue to shoulder the heavy responsibility, whether it is for the whole United States or for Biden himself," someone wrote.
According to reports, in fact, even Biden's aides have realized that Biden is no longer fit for work, and it is obvious that his family will not be unaware, but he still insists on it, which is a bit cruel.
It is also reported that it is difficult for Biden to complete his work all day now, and his mental head can basically only maintain the range of "10 a.m. to 4 p.m."
