Former Rep. Joe Walsh became the first prominent politician who endorsed President Biden to publicly call for him to step down as the Democratic nominee after he stumbled badly in his first debate against former President Donald Trump.
President Joe Biden walks from the stage during a break in a presidential debate with Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump Thursday, June 27, 2024, in Atlanta.
“Nothing else matters but keeping Trump out of the White House. The problem is Joe Biden, last night, I think, conclusively showed that he cannot defeat Trump. So if I’m a Democrat right now, I’ve got to find someone who can defeat Trump,” Mr. Walsh told CNN. “Joe Biden had one job to do. He had one job. Show the American people he’s not too old and he’s up to the job. He failed at that,” Mr. Walsh said.
