Following President Joe Biden's widely criticized debate performance, multiple sources have weighed in on his suitability for re-election. Rep. James Clyburn defended Biden, attributing his poor performance to his history of stuttering and debate preparation overload. Dr. Anthony Fauci emphasized that the decision to run should be personal and highlighted Biden's probing questions during their work together. Meanwhile, international media, particularly from Italy, heavily criticized Biden, questioning his health and leadership capabilities. Polls indicate a tight race between Biden and Donald Trump, with some suggesting Trump has a slight edge in traditionally Democratic states like New Jersey. Despite the criticism, the Democratic National Committee continues to support Biden as the nominee.
