NYT Drops Bomb on Biden After Debate, Wants Him Out of Race – ‘Not the Man He Was Four Years Ago’
The New York Times editorial recently suggested that President Joe Biden should withdraw from the presidential race. This suggestion came after Biden’s performance at a recent debate, which the Times described as weak, noting that he appeared as ”a shadow of who he once was.” The editorial emphasized that Biden’s struggle during the debate to articulate and complete sentences was evident and worrying, highlighting concerns about his mental fitness and capability to serve another term. Despite these criticisms, there was no indication that Biden planned to step down. This stance was supported by Biden campaign representative Seth Schuster, who explicitly stated that Biden would not quit. The editorial not only reflects mounting concerns about Biden’s competency but also indicates significant unrest among some Democratic supporters and donors, who fear that continuing his candidacy might lead to losing the election.

The New York Times to Joe Biden: Drop out.
In an editorial headlined, “To Serve His Country, President Biden Should Leave the Race” The New York Times said that Biden remaining in the presidential election is tantamount to a victory for its arch-nemesis, former President Donald Trump.
“At Thursday’s debate, the president needed to convince the American public that he was equal to the formidable demands of the office he is seeking to hold for another term. Voters, however, cannot be expected to ignore what was instead plain to see: Mr. Biden is not the man he was four years ago,” the Times wrote.
The Times, while praising Biden overall, called him a “shadow” of who he once was, repeating multiple times that Biden “struggled” in multiple phases of the debate.

“More than once, he struggled to make it to the end of a sentence,” the Times wrote.
The Times editorial, which included its de rigeur trashing of Trump, summed up the Biden candidacy as a “reckless gamble.”
It noted that “the president’s performance cannot be written off as a bad night or blamed on a supposed cold, because it affirmed concerns that have been mounting for months or even years.
“Even when Mr. Biden tried to lay out his policy proposals, he stumbled. It cannot be outweighed by other public appearances because he has limited and carefully controlled his public appearances,” the Times wrote.
Noting that Biden sought the debate as a vehicle to eliminate doubts that he was not mentally competent for a second term, the Times wrote, “The truth Mr. Biden needs to confront now is that he failed his own test.”
The Times said that the “clearest path for Democrats” was to “acknowledge that Mr. Biden can’t continue his race.”
The Times was not alone.
“It was a disaster last night,” mega-donor Betty Cotton of New York said, according to USA Today. “He should seriously think about stepping down so that we don’t lose the election.”
“This is really serious and I’d like to explore what the options are,” Cotton said.
Shekar Narasimhan, founder of the AAPI Victory Fund, also said the debate was a disaster for Democrats.
“I thought the debate performance by President Biden was terrible,” he said. “It has the unfortunate result of reinforcing the opinion that Biden is too old and not capable.”
As of Friday morning, there was no indication Biden would listen to the rumblings of discontent.
Asked if Biden would quit, Biden campaign representative Seth Schuster responded: “No,” according to CNN.
