Democrats in Full-Blown Panic Mode After Presidential Debate

Democrats are panicking in the aftermath of President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance against former President Donald Trump.

During the debate Thursday night, former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang called for Biden to be removed and replaced on the ballot.

Guys, the Dems should nominate someone else - before it’s too late. #swapJoeout

Look I debated Joe 7 times in 2020. He’s a different guy in 2024. #swapJoeout

Behind the scenes, Democrats are very worried.

I am in multiple large group texts with Democratic operatives, elected officials, staffers, and donors.

Not one of them feels good about Biden’s performance tonight in terms of style, his voice etc.

And these are people who aggressively defend him.

And I know this is…

Look. This debate was a total and complete disaster for Biden. He looked old. His answers trailed off repeatedly. He was hard to understand. He would stop in mid sentence and move on to something else.

I NEVER thought he would be this bad. Stunning. Truly.
