President Joe Biden is already catching flack from within his own ranks over his Friday night interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopolous.
In assessing Biden’s once again shaky performance, a number of Democrats have expressed their dissatisfaction with the U.S. president, despite the fact the 81-year-old told Stephanopolous that high-profile figures in the party, including Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries, “all said I should stay in the race.”
Prior to the pre-recorded interview being aired, some Democratic lawmakers indicated their minds would remain unchanged by Biden’s appearance, with Rep. Greg Landsman (D-OH) telling Axios: “There were 40 million people that watched the debate, so it'll take more than a rally and an interview to prove that he can make the case that Trump is unfit to be president.” Another unidentified lawmaker said the interview will change “zero” minds.
