The editorial board of the prestigious American newspaper New York Times on Friday called on President Joe Biden to withdraw from the race for the White House after his disastrous debate the day before against Donald Trump.
In an op-ed published Friday night and titled “To Serve the Country, President Biden Must Leave the Race” for the White House, the New York Times described Joe Biden as “a shadow of a leader,” after the 81-year-old president “failed his own test.”
Unrecognizable, Joe Biden swallowed words, didn’t finish some sentences and stared into space during the televised duel Thursday against his Republican predecessor.
“Mr. Biden has been an admirable president. Under his leadership, the nation has prospered and begun to address a range of long-term challenges, and the wounds opened by Mr. Trump have begun to heal. But the greatest public service Mr. Biden could perform today would be to announce that he will not seek reelection,” the New York Times.
Its editorial board brings together renowned editorialists and is supposed to reflect the values of the media.
Members of the Democratic Party also questioned Biden’s ability to assume a new mandate, which sparked a storm within the party, but Joe Biden assured Friday that he could “do the job”, receiving support in the process. of two of his predecessors Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.
