Biden doubled down Friday on his refusal to leave the presidential race — saying “I’m the nominee” and that “I’m running and going to win again” — but at one point mistakenly spoke as if the election year was 2020 as fellow Democrats suggest that he drop out due to perceived senility.
“There’s been a lot of speculation: What’s Joe going to do?” the 81-year-old president said during a speech at a Madison, Wis., campaign rally. “Here’s my answer: I’m running and going to win again.”
“I’m the nominee of the Democratic Party. You voted for me to be your nominee. no one else,” Biden went on. “I will beat [Trump] again in 2020.”
Biden added: “Some folks don’t seem to care who you voted for. They are trying to push me out of the race. Let me say this as clearly as I can: I’m staying in the race.”
The president made the remarks as he seeks to prove he can remain a viable candidate in the aftermath of last Thursday’s debate against Trump — with the president privately acknowledging that he may indeed have to drop out if he’s unable to regain his political footing.
