Following President Joe Biden's lackluster debate performance against former President Donald Trump, Democratic anxiety is on the rise. Texas Rep. Lloyd Doggett has become the first Democratic lawmaker to call for Biden to step aside, sparking concerns within the party about the president's health and mental state.
During the debate, Biden's responses appeared incoherent at times, fueling speculation about his ability to serve another term at the age of 81. White House press secretary confirmed that Biden had a cold during the debate but had not taken medication. However, questions remain about his performance and demeanor on stage.
