As Joe Biden seeks to reassure high-dollar donors and party bigwigs he can function as a candidate and president after Thursday’s disastrous debate with President Trump, he touched down in the Hamptons Saturday afternoon clutching the arm of wife Jill Biden as the two left Air Force One for the walk across the tarmac to Marine One for a fundraiser in the tony Long Island, New York community.

As Joe Biden seeks to reassure high-dollar donors and party bigwigs he can function as a candidate and president after Thursday’s disastrous debate with President Trump, he touched down in the Hamptons Saturday afternoon clutching the arm of wife Jill Biden as the two left Air Force One for the walk across the tarmac to Marine One for a fundraiser in the tony Long Island, New York community.
Pool video posted by the Associated Press shows a slack-jawed Biden stopping on the stairs of a smaller Air Force One to acknowledge supporters, then clutching Jill’s arm when they step onto the tarmac. Biden, looking somewhat dazed, continued to hold Jill’s hand as they walked across the tarmac to Marine One.
Biden ignored a shouted question from a reporter about calls for him to drop out of the presidential race.
A screen image from the AP pool video shows a still slack-jawed Biden holding Jill’s hand as they walk to Marine One.
Details of the high-dollar fundraiser were posted by New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer. Biden is also attending a fundraiser in New Jersey later Saturday:

According to a pool report, protesters calling for Biden to drop out were seen on the way to the Hamptons fundraiser:
“The motorcade arrived at a private home in East Hampton for the fundraiser at 2:44 p.m. Just before arriving, the motorcade passed a group of people holding signs that read, “Please drop out for U.S.”, “Thank you next”, “Step down for democracy”, and “We love you but it’s time!”
An additional pool reported noted Biden supporters were also seen along the motorcade route:
