Seeking to revive his struggling reelection campaign, President Joe Biden held a rare rally in Detroit, telling a cheering crowd he wasn’t going to leave the race and warning that Republican Donald Trump poses a serious threat. President Biden affirmed his commitment amidst Biden campaign struggles.
Biden, 81, is trying to shift the conversation from his mental sharpness to the impact of another Trump presidency, as his campaign struggles after his shaky debate performance on June 27. “I am running and we’re going to win,” he said to a crowd that carried “Motown is Joetown” signs and chanted “Don’t you quit” before he spoke. #BidenCampaignStruggles
“I’m the nominee,” he said. “I’m not going anywhere.”
“It’s time for us to stop treating politics like it’s entertainment or a reality TV show,” Biden said. He warned that “Project 2025,” a conservative policy platform that would seek to slash the federal government if Trump is elected, was “deadly serious.”
Earlier on Friday, Biden made a surprise stop at a garage-themed restaurant in a western suburb of Detroit, where he told diners he planned to “finish the job,” and said “I promise you…I’m okay.”
He acknowledged the difficulties but expressed determination to persevere. Biden emphasized his resolve to address pressing issues and engage with voters directly. These efforts underscore his intent to navigate through turbulent times and lead effectively. #BidenCampaignStruggles
