Democratic strategist David Axelrod warned that President Biden is “dangerously out of touch” with voters on the issue of his age and health following Biden’s highly anticipated sit-down interview on ABC News.
“The president is rightfully proud of his record.

Today, he is six points behind.”
Axelrod’s comments came shortly after Biden’s full interview with ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos aired Friday evening. The interview was the first since Biden’s widely panned debate performance against former President Trump last week.
Throughout the interview, Biden described that debate performance as “a bad night.”
“I was having a bad night when I realized that even when I was answering a question, when they turned his mic off, he was still shouting, and I let it distract me,” Biden said, referring to Trump.
“I realized that I just wasn’t in control,” he added.
Biden also insisted he was not behind in the presidential race, despite polling showing otherwise.
