“Bob Woodward — in his forthcoming book War, out Oct. 15 — reveals in-the-room details of a one-on-one lunch in which Secretary of State Tony Blinken and President Biden, his longtime friend and boss, discussed the president’s post-debate political peril,” Axios reports.
“Woodward reports that during the July 4 lunch at the White House, Blinken posed a series of questions about the pros and cons of Biden continuing his re-election race.”
“Blinken made it clear that getting out was a decision only Biden could make — wanting the president to feel he was making it on his terms, rather than being forced.”
