Washington Week with The Atlantic

Biden digs in as more Democrats call for him to leave the race

Season 2024 Episode 28 | 19m 22s

Two weeks after President Biden’s disastrous debate performance, he continues to hang on to his candidacy by his fingernails. The number of Democrats calling for him to leave the race keeps ticking upwards, but it’s hardly a tidal wave. And the president’s performance at a press conference Thursday was just fluent enough to prevent a total collapse of his campaign.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
