Biden’s team stays quiet after debate slip-up causes turmoil in party.

President Joe Biden’s inner circle seems to have gone missing after what many are calling a “disastrous” and “embarrassing” performance by the incumbent Democrat during Thursday’s presidential debate. Biden’s lackluster showing has drawn criticism from media personalities and politicians alike, who have criticized his weak voice, aging appearance, and failure to convince the American people that he is fit to serve another term in the White House.

Following the debate, key members of Biden’s inner circle, including former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, who spearheaded debate preparations, as well as his successor Jeff Zients, senior campaign advisor Anita Dunn, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Counselor to the President Steven Richetti, and several others, have remained silent. These individuals were part of a team of at least 16 current and former aides who assisted Biden with debate preparations at Camp David over the course of a week.

Despite the lack of public support from his inner circle, Biden did receive some backing from former President Obama, who admitted that Biden had a “bad” debate performance. In a statement, Obama acknowledged that his former vice president had faltered in delivering a strong performance for the Democratic Party and the American people.

Obama went on to criticize former President Trump and offer his support for Biden, highlighting the choice between someone who has a history of fighting for ordinary people and someone who prioritizes self-interest. He emphasized the importance of the upcoming election and the high stakes involved in November’s decision.

The fallout from Biden’s debate performance has led some Republicans to declare him “unfit for office,” further intensifying the scrutiny on his ability to lead the country effectively. The mixed reactions to the debate have set the stage for a contentious election season as the American public weighs their options and considers the implications of their choice for the future of the nation.

As the dust settles from the debate, the spotlight remains firmly on Biden as he seeks to rally support and make his case to the American people. With the election drawing near, the outcome remains uncertain, and the debate performance has only added to the unpredictable nature of the political landscape.
