Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on CNN to give her post-debate assessment and was pushed very hard by anchor Anderson Cooper about Biden’s flailing performance.
Cooper spoke of Democrats describing “panic” over Biden’s “disaster” or “train wreck” of a debate.
“Some within your own party are wondering if President Biden should even step aside. What do you say to that?” he asked.
“It was a slow start, but it was a strong finish,” Harris began. “Joe Biden is extraordinarily strong.“
“People can debate on style points,” she added when pressed by Cooper. “I got the point that you’re making about a one and a half hour debate tonight — I’m talking about three and a half years of performance and work that has been historic.”
