Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Jaime Harrison argued that Biden 'has always had our back, and we're going to have his' following the president's debate debacle.
Democratic National Committee Chairman Jaime Harrison attempted to put rumors of President Biden's replacement to bed following his disastrous debate performance, arguing that the party has the president's back. Harrison told MSNBC host Al Sharpton that the people are still strongly supporting President Biden, saying that the 'hand-wringing' is coming from the media.
Biden gave no indication that he would step down at his first rally following the debate in Raleigh, North Carolina, insisting he is capable of beating Trump. 'I can do this job, because, quite frankly, the stakes are too high,' Biden energetically said. 'Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation.' Some strategists have suggested the Democratic Party must act quickly to replace Biden before his nomination is made official in August.
Vice President Kamala Harris has been largely ruled out as a potential replacement due to her unpopularity with voters. California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer have each previously been floated as a potential last-minute replacement.
