Biden Now Realizes He Screwed Up In First Debate

Politico: “Not long after his anemic performance in the first presidential debate, as his poll numbers began to slide, Joe Biden had conversations with nervous donors and personally assured them his campaign was on track.”

Said one insider: “People were raising serious questions about his ability to be very aggressive against Trump. He’s listening. He seems to be more sure of himself after that first fiasco. I think he realizes now that he screwed up.”

“Many Democrats — including his own donors and admirers — continue to question whether he’s capable of recovering from a damaging first performance. They wonder whether he can exercise the discipline necessary to execute a debate plan on Wednesday, when several rivals will have an interest in taking him down. Seldom has a candidate so well-equipped for a debate projected so much uncertainty.”
