President Biden Acknowledges Debate Error, Vows Victory Against Trump

Joe Biden

President Biden’s acknowledgment of his poor debate performance underscores his commitment to continuing his campaign despite the setback.

He emphasized his determination to defeat former President Trump in the upcoming November election.

“I had a bad night,” he told Wisconsin radio host Earl Ingram in a prerecorded interview.

“I screwed up. I made a mistake. But I learned from my father, when you get knocked down, just get back up. And you know, we’re gonna win this election. We’re gonna just beat Donald Trump as much as we did in 2020.”

Following President Biden’s poor debate performance, concerns were raised among Democrats and supporters about his ability to effectively respond to Trump’s false statements.

Some media outlets, two House Democrats, and others called for Biden to withdraw from the campaign, advocating for another Democrat to challenge Trump.

Despite this, Biden urged voters to focus on his extensive record of accomplishments rather than be deterred by his debate performance.

“I didn’t have a good debate. That’s 90 minutes on stage,” he said. “Look at what I’ve done in 3.5 years.”

President Biden emphasized his efforts to lower prescription drug prices and enhance healthcare for veterans.

He criticized former President Trump’s record on veterans’ issues and his comments about “Black jobs” during the debate, which drew significant backlash from Black leaders.

“You know what he’s doing, it’s shameful,” Biden said. “He’s talking about Black jobs meaning only things Blacks can do, manual labor, menial labor. That’s what he’s doing and that’s how he looks at it. Name me something he’s done to help the Black community, give people a shot like I’ve gone with college and education and home-buying and a whole range of things.”

“This is a guy who questioned George Floyd’s humanity, led the birther movement against Barack Obama,” Biden continued. “He’s falsely accused the Central Park Five.”

During the interview, President Biden addressed concerns about his support among the Black community, emphasizing the importance of their vote in the upcoming November election.

He made a direct appeal for Black voters to support him, highlighting issues relevant to the community and aiming to secure their backing.

“The vote of the black community matters intensely,” Biden argued. “Who’s going to represent you except folks like me? And we’re not gonna be able to represent you if you’re not showing up to vote. It matters.

“Your voice has to be heard. Lots of close elections in the last couple of years, and every vote counts. Understand that,” he continued. “For far too long the Black community, Black Americans often love their country a hell of a lot more than their country’s loves them, loves them back in equal measure. Because folks like you turn out the vote in 2020, we have made remarkable progress.”
