Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) told NBC News that President Biden needs to “win overwhelmingly” or “pass the torch.”
Said Schiff: “Ultimately, this is a decision President Biden is going to have to make and President Biden alone. But I would say this: he has been an extraordinary president. He has created millions and millions of jobs. He has expanded strengthened our NATO alliances. He has brought back manufacturing this country. He has brought about the most aggressive attack on climate change. He’s done more in one term than most presidents ever do, no matter how many terms they get. And he’s running against someone who’s a pathological liar, someone who ran the country into the ground by his mishandling of a deadly pandemic. Someone who is a pathological – not only a pathological liar, but is immoral, indecent, unfit for office.”
He added: “But the performance on the debate stage, I think, rightfully raised questions among the American people about whether the President has the vigor to defeat Donald Trump. And this is an existential race. Given Joe Biden’s incredible record, given Donald Trump’s terrible record, he should be mopping the floor with Donald Trump. Joe Biden’s running against a criminal. It should not be even close. And there’s only one reason it is close, and that’s the President’s age.“
