“Anyone who thinks this is over is mistaken,” said one House Democrat about the ongoing conversations happening behind the scenes. The delay stopped a draft letter circulating among House Democrats that, if made formal, would have exposed further cracks in the party. ABC News’ Jonathan Karl reported earlier Wednesday that Schumer told Biden on Saturday that it would be best if Biden bowed out of the presidential race. At one point, Biden told Crow, “I don’t want to hear that crap” in addressing the lawmaker’s concerns. In response, Biden told Houlahan that his team would get her talking points about all of the things that he has done for Pennsylvania, reminding her that he married a Philly girl.

At several points in the interview, Biden expressed frustration with how the media has covered Trump. 28 times, it's confirmed, he lied in that debate," Biden said. At the end of the interview, Biden asked Holt to come and talk to him sometime about "what we should be talking about." Similarly, in that interview, Biden was soft-spoken and misspoke at times.

Washington CNN —President Joe Biden was bracing for a week of political onslaught. When gunshots rang out at a Donald Trump political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday evening, much of that appeared to change. He also addressed the nation from the Oval Office, calling for a lowering of the political temperature. “I think it should,” one close Biden ally told CNN when asked if that may end up being a result of Saturday’s attack. But those expected discussions were quickly eclipsed by the response to the assassination attempt on Biden’s predecessor and political opponent.

U.S. President Joe Biden delivers remarks following the incident that occurred at a campaign rally for former U.S. President Donald Trump, in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, U.S., July 13, 2024. President Joe Biden said he should not have used the language, "put Trump in the bullseye," a remark he made to donors in a private call days before the attempted assassination of Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally. "It was a mistake to use the word," Biden said, according to excerpts of a Monday interview with NBC News' Lester Holt. "Look, I have not engaged in that rhetoric," Biden said. The Monday interview comes as Biden works to rehabilitate his political image following his disastrous debate performance against Trump in June.

President Biden is locked in a tight race with former President Donald J. Trump in Pennsylvania, a state that Mr. Biden barely won in 2020 and that is critical to his re-election hopes, and in Virginia, a state where Mr. Biden defeated Mr. Trump by 10 percentage points in 2020, according to the latest New York Times/Siena College polls. The polls, which were completed before the assassination attempt on Mr. Trump while he was campaigning in Pennsylvania on Saturday, found that Mr. Trump was leading the president by 48 percent to 45 percent among likely voters in Pennsylvania. The results are almost unchanged from a New York Times/Siena College poll taken in May and within the margin of error. By almost any Electoral College map calculation, it would be nearly impossible for Mr. Biden to win re-election without Pennsylvania. In that state, Mr. Biden has a lead of 3 percentage points over Mr. Trump among likely voters, which is within the margin of error.

President Joe Biden delivered remarks on Saturday evening after former President Donald Trump was injured and rushed offstage when gunshots were fired at his political rally. "There's no place in America for this kind of violence," Biden said in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Political violence is "just unheard of, it's just not appropriate, and everybody, everybody must condemn it," he said. Asked if he believed the shooting was an assassination attempt against Trump, Biden said he had "an opinion" but wanted to gather more facts before making additional comments. In a written statement earlier Saturday evening, Biden, who is running for reelection against Trump, said that he was glad to hear Trump is "safe and doing well."

The takeaway was a split decision: Biden rambled and misspoke several times, but also displayed the confidence and depth of knowledge that his supporters had hoped to hear. Yet for many donors and Democratic officials, the performance wasn’t enough to settle the debate over whether he should stay in the race. Biden demonstrated his command of foreign policy at the news conference. Biden made two headline-making flubs: calling Vice President Kamala Harris “Vice President Trump,” and saying he followed the advice of his “commander in chief” — his own title — about military aid to Ukraine. (Earlier in the day, he introduced President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine as “President Putin” before quickly correcting himself.)

President Biden said on Thursday that Vice President Kamala Harris was qualified to be president, but pitched himself as the best person to defeat former President Donald J. Trump in November. During a news conference, Mr. Biden defended Ms. Harris’s readiness to take charge amid reports that he feared she could not beat Mr. Trump even as he made clear that he would not step aside. “Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president, did I think she’s not qualified to be president,” Mr. Biden said. The fact is that the consideration is that I think I’m the most qualified person to run for president. I beat him once, and I will beat him again.”Polls in recent weeks have generally showed that Ms. Harris is just as likely, or possibly more likely, to defeat Mr. Trump, and the former president’s campaign has ramped up attacks on her recently.

The campaign of President Joe Biden asked for and received two edits to an interview he gave a Milwaukee radio station on the heels of his disastrous debate in late June against former President Donald Trump, the station said Thursday. The disclosure by Civic Media of the edits comes days after its host for the Biden interview, and another Black radio host in Philadelphia, revealed that the Biden campaign fed them questions in advance to ask the president. Civic Media said that right after Ingram taped the interview with Biden on July 3, the campaign called and requested the edits. "With a high-profile interview comes a listener expectation that journalistic interview standards will be applied, even for non-news programming," Civic Media said. Civic Media's disclosure comes five days after Ingram said Biden aides "gave me the exact questions to ask" Biden in the interview.

President Biden’s resistance to pressure to end his re-election bid appears to be a strategy aimed at running out the clock, a play to leave his party so little time to come up with another candidate that his opponents stand down. Every day that Mr. Biden defies pressure to step aside, the prospects, and logistics, of replacing him become more untenable, and riskier. “It’s a mess,” said James Carville, a consultant who has been among a roster of Democrats pushing for Mr. Biden to step aside and clear the way for a new nominee. Everybody gets exhausted and just says, ‘It’s too much trouble.’”Mr. Biden’s efforts to dig in were showing signs of initial success. On Tuesday, some Democratic leaders in Congress expressed support for the president and said it was time to move on.

He also refuses to see that many people in America are dissatisfied, despite all that he feels he has done for them. The toxic swamp of lies and anger that breeds populism may drag him down, and all of us with him. Most Democrats will vote for him ultimately if he is the nominee. I fear that Mr. Biden and his defenders are making the same assumptions about Americans that tripped up Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
