resident Joe Biden defended his debate performance, saying he did 'well' and inisisted he was not dropping out of the race when pressed during a post-debate food run.
Biden, along with wife Jill, stopped at a Waffle House in Atlanta to pick up some chow for the plane ride to Raleigh, North Carolina where they have a campaign event on Friday.
'I think we did well,' Biden told the press traveling with him.
When asked about the mounting calls among Democrats for him to drop out, and whether he has any concerns about his performance, Biden said: 'No. It’s hard to debate a liar. The New York Times pointed out he (Trump) lied 26 times.'
He did admit to being sick, saying, 'I have a sore throat.'
Biden sounded hoarse and his voice weak during the debate and, multiple times, he fumbled when trying to find his words and talk about policy issues. His performance led to panic among Democrats with reports they are talking about replacing Biden on the ballot.

What mind?
Lets go, Jill! Keep him in the race so we don’t end up with Newsome or Hillary or Michelle or whomever they’ve got up their sleeve.
A week off-grid, with 10 doctors, 14 nurses, 3 advisors, 4 documentarians, 17 lawyers, 11 debate prep specialists, 21 housekeepers, 16 slaves/groundskeepers, and...he’s got a cold?
Trump needs to get out of the debate. Just say after last night it’s not fair to put Joe through something like that again.
Stay Strong Jill!
Take the high road.
Only the GOPe Swamp Filth on FR are beating the drum for replacement.
Polls of who won the debate mean nothing. Polls of presidential preference mean everything and it will be weeks for them to come in.
When they do, they will show little change — and thus no reason for Biden to replace.
The media will circle the wagons around him. When it is clear he will not step down, they will suddenly declare he gave great answers.
The key here is to get the clock to tick. Election day is not November. Early voting in some states starts September and for pretty much all states in October.
Keep the clock ticking. There won’t be time to reprint ballots.
Politics isn’t fair.
The Biden team asked for these debates. Let them back out.
If they decide to replace Biden with another candidate. Bumping up RFK’s numbers with Democrats will confuse their plans if they choose this path.
If Biden refuses to move along or if they replace him many will still vote Democrat just because they are Dems and will not vote Trump. Keeping it close enough to try and rig.
The alternative is to sit back on the lead and wait for the offensive hoping the lead is big enough to hold them off.
Life is full of risks and decisions have consequences
Except no one on our side should believe the next debate will be at all fair to Trump.
[’I think we did well,’ Biden told the press traveling with him.]
