She said she and everyone completely understood the situation… and noted that he didn’t want to endanger anyone by coming out and saying something. When the official word came out, you could hear audible sighs and groans from the crowd… pure disappointment.
It’s a huge blow to the Biden campaign… which has been in a bit of trouble lately, especially after Joe’s. disastrous debate a few weeks ago.
Of course, afterwards Donald Trump‘S attempted homicide — he’s gotten a lot of sympathy… another thing that took the sails off the Biden train, and now this. Interestingly enough…Biden just recorded an interview about illness earlier this week.
