President Joe Biden's performance in the recent presidential debate has sparked significant controversy and concern among Democratic voters and political analysts. Biden himself has acknowledged concerns about his debate performance on Thursday night, which was viewed by 60 million people. Notably, nearly half of Democratic voters believe Biden should not be the Democratic nominee following the debate. Prominent figures like Bob Woodward have harshly criticized Biden's performance, with Woodward calling it a 'political h-bomb.' The New York Times has called on Biden to drop out of the race, while debates continue about whether Democrats should replace him. Additionally, 5% of viewers told CNN that they had changed their minds about voting for Biden, according to Rick Santorum. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump faced criticism for relentless attacks and falsehoods during the debate. This has led to a broader discussion about the state of the Democratic Party and its strategy moving forward.
