United States: Joe Biden reassures about his state of health but struggles to convince
(France info)
The American president has reiterated his willingness to be a candidate in the next presidential election, despite criticism of his health. But in his own camp, doubts are more present than ever.
Joe Biden, the alert step, is campaigning. The president and candidate has no intention of withdrawing: “I’m staying in the race, I’m going to beat Donald Trump“, he assures. He also gave a television interview on Friday, July 5, to hammer home his message: ““No one is more qualified than me to be president”. But his sentences remain disjointed. And when the presenter asks him if he would agree to undergo a medical test, Joe Biden refuses.
The American president has been under fire for about ten days, since his worrying performance during his televised debate against Donald Trump, during which he appeared awkward and hesitant. Enough to increase concerns about his health and his age. Since then, voices have multiplied in his own camp calling for his withdrawal. It will take more than yesterday’s performance to reassure the Democrats and reverse the polls, which are favorable to Donald Trump.
