    This is why presidential primary debates are important.
  • I’m lost. I thought that democracy was, ‘By the people’. When did it become ‘by the president’? Joe Biden will, “…decide what’s best for our country”??
  • I respect you Senator, from Guilford, from caring more about a dottard's feelings than the country. Please apply more pressure. This is a national security concern not a matter of small talk.
  • Mr Welch, what is the right decision? How many right decisions has Biden actually made?
  • the American ppl will decide when theis old man quits we have already made the decision to NOT vote for you Joe you have no say so in this matter.
  • @cappiece3786
    Quit candy coating it. Or Trump will be your next president. This is ridiculous
  • @bruceg
    HUH? Joe Manchin left the party.
  • @mattmackane
    Let me get this straight: we are nominating a man for president that I wouldn’t trust to get my order correct at McDonald’s? Is that right?
  • Truly the best and understanding democrat kudos to you sir. Thother dems needs to take heed
  • We cannot unsee what we saw. If he really is competent, he will withdraw from the race for the good of the country.
  • @PumaBeats
    I’d give Biden another day or two to come out, salvage his legacy, and step down. If he doesn’t do that, then I think the cabinet and the vice president need to invoke the 25th Amendment and force him out of office, at the very least. Inaction from here will inevitably result in catastrophic consequences in November.
  • @MegF142857
    Stop using younger VP images of Biden in your polls. Use a current image!
  • Maybe Jimmy Carter will step up & replace biden. He's only 99.
  • @leave3386
    Keep all the money.then stand down retire go home.
  • @jayterry9759
    HE DID NOT WIN THE PRIMARY. HE CANCELLED THE PRIMARY
  • Death by a thousand cuts...stop the nonsense, Joe and step down! Stop saying, "I'm not quitting". YOU don't have to quit. WE have quit you!! You have lost all credibility! GO!
  • Thank you Senator Welch. Thank you President Biden. Me and my family are riding with Biden/Harris. Not the convicted felon, lying con, anarchist Trump.
  • I decided along time ago Biden / Harris 2024 independent I’m sick of this nonsense
