Officials on President Biden’s White House and campaign staffs are feeling rage, sadness, frustration, and resolve over his debate performance and the response to it.
More than a dozen aides expressed concerns about Biden’s mental fitness and criticized senior aides for a lack of transparency.
One White House official mentioned that the issue is the primary topic of conversation, Axios is reporting.
Anxiety has increased since the debate, and staffers are seeking leadership and direction during this pivotal moment for Biden’s presidency.
Following the debate against former President Trump, senior officials addressed Biden’s performance with staff, but many felt they were only given talking points without real explanations.
The ongoing lack of answers has led to growing anger and resentment within the Biden camp.
Some team members view the debate as a temporary setback, noting that Biden has previously overcome significant challenges.
