From guiding her meandering husband down stairs to congratulating him for 'answering all the questions': How stubborn Jill's treatment of Joe shows she holds the power in the race... and admits the debate was bad

Despite mounting pressure from the Democrats to consider his political future after a car-crash debate performance, Joe Biden seems to be staying firmly in the race with Jill Biden stubbornly standing by his side.

And her actions over the past 48 hours are clear that she is the one firmly pulling the strings over her husband’s decision to stay in the race.

She made it clear when she spoke to wealthy donors in New York on Friday night she knew how the debate was perceived but said she told her husband the campaign would continue.

"So let's talk about last night's debate, because I know it's on your minds." she said. "As Joe said earlier today, he's not a young man. And you know, after last night's debate, he said, 'You know, Jill, I don't know what happened. I didn't feel that great.' And I said, 'Look, Joe, we are not going to let 90 minutes define the four years that you've been president.'"

At his next press conference, she sat in a chair front and center, taking charge.

The question is what will she do now: Will she push for changes at the campaign? Will she call for staff to be fired? Will she put Joe Biden in public more? Or will she urge the White House to continue to use stage-managed events and keep him surrounded by aides?

The collective reaction to the debate tonight will only reinforce their grit and determination — they will double down on running. Whether that’s a good or bad thing is up for debate. That’s just who they are — they don’t give up. Do not expect anything to change in this race,’ wrote her former press secretary Michael LaRosa on X.

It would have been epic if Trump had gone over to shake Biden’s hand and assisted him to get down the stairs.
