A desperate Joe Biden has hit back at the New York Times after it told him to drop out of the presidential race following his disastrous debate.
The Times previously jointly endorsed two Democratic presidential candidates Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren in 2020 instead of Biden.
But despite being snubbed by the prestigious broadsheet, Biden would go on to win his party’s nomination and defeat Trump in November 2020.
A senior adviser to the president told CNN: ‘The last time Joe Biden lost the New York Times editorial board’s endorsement, it turned out pretty well for him.’
On Friday the editorial board of the Times wrote Biden ‘is not the man he was four years ago’ and criticized his rationale for running, saying it was a ‘reckless gamble’.
Meanwhile the fallout from the debate has left Democratic donors floating the idea of an ‘intervention’ led by Obama to get the sitting president to see sense after he was widely mocked for his performance against Trump.
If biden wants to stay in the running let him stay. Lol
Biden, The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few” (or “the one”).
Step down now for the good of this country.
