“This debate was a total and complete disaster for Biden,” former CNN commentator Chris Cilizza wrote on X

“He looked old. His answers trailed off repeatedly. He was hard to understand. He would stop in mid sentence and move on to something else. I NEVER thought he would be this bad. Stunning. Truly.”

“Stunning number from voters who witnessed his performance with their own eyes,” political commentator Alyssa Farah Griffin posted on X in response to the poll.

Biden’s team pushed back on the narrative that he lost the debate including VP Kamala Harris, who told CNN, “It was a slow start but a strong finish.”

“Joe, you did such a good job!” First Lady Jill Biden said to the president on a stage after the debate. “You answered every question. You knew all the facts.”
