Biden bristles at questions about his abilities and age in an interview
Biden Brought Back to the Horse: How Did He Go From 2016 to the Jan. 6 Insurrection? Why Did Biden Break His Oasis?
But he repeatedly directed blame back at Trump and his own comments, from his first campaign for president in 2016 to remarks about the Jan. 6 insurrection.
“I’m not the guy that said I want to be a dictator on day one. Biden said he was not the guy that refused to accept the result of the election.
When a president says things that are true, how do you talk about the threat to democracy? Do you just not say anything because it might infuriate someone? Biden said.
Biden said he spoke with Trump after the shooting, describing the call as “very cordial” and said he told his predecessor “he was literally in the prayers of Jill and me.”
“I’m on the horse!” The flurry of events Biden has held since the debate are meant to show it was just one bad night. “Where have you been? I’ve done 22 major events and thousands of people, overwhelming crowds. A lot is happening.
Holt asked if Biden was going to debate Trump again before the September debate, so that he could get back on the horse.
“But I’m only three years older than Trump, No. 1. And No. 2, my mental acuity has been pretty damn good. I have gotten more done than any president in 312 years. I’m willing to be judged on that.”

The Biden-Trump Horse Race in the Light of the Pennsylvania CP Violating Event and the Donaldson-Present Assassination
The public calls from Democrats in Congress for Biden to step back from the presidential race have decreased since the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on Saturday.
As the first night of the GOP convention went on, Biden sat for a new interview where he was confronted with the question of whether he needed more to convince his party he is the right person for the job.
I admit it feels a bit uncomfortable to dwell on the Biden-Trump horse race given the gravity of current events, but there’s still an election coming up, no matter what, with early voting set to begin in some states in September. A flurry of polls released in the last few days offer information about the rigidity of the presidential contest, despite not capturing the impact of the tragedy in Pennsylvania on voter opinion.
Meanwhile, many Democrats are despondent. Serious concerns about President Biden’s electoral hopes loomed even before the events of the weekend transpired. The Biden campaign trail challenges are still being faced. Democrats were worried that they had no good options because of the image of Mr. Trump fist in the air.
Republican’s are coming into the second day of their convention with a lot of energy. They feel jubilant about their chances of winning in November and furious about the near-assassination of former President Donald Trump — an event many of them view as the natural consequence of what they see as hyperbolic rhetoric about the threat Mr. Trump poses to the country.
US Presidential candidate Joe Biden has said that former President Donald Trump’s call after the shooting at the White House was “very cordial”. “He (Trump) was literally in the prayers of Jill and me,” Biden added. The Democratic nominee further said that he was not the guy that refused to accept the result of the election.
