The Daily Beast reports:
Asked by a reporter how he thought he did during Thursday’s night debate during a post-game stop at a Waffle House in Atlanta, President Joe Biden said, “I thought we did well.”
Pressed further to respond to growing calls for him to drop out of the race after a performance that has been widely characterized as an “unmitigated disaster” by pundits, Biden said, “No. It’s hard to debate a liar. The New York Times pointed out he lied 26 times.”
He also addressed rumors that his hoarse voice was due to cold symptoms by acknowledging, “I have a sore throat.”
