 One of America's most influential newspapers, the New York Times, has called in an op-ed for President Biden to forfeit his race for the White House following his poor performance in Thursday's debate. Senior Democrats, including Barack Obama and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, have publicly defended Mr Biden. There's said to be concerns within the party bordering on panic over Mr Biden's fitness for office. But Christine Pelosi, a strategist for the Democrats, said Biden can win.
