Trump, 78, repeated a series of well-worn, glaring falsehoods during the 90-minute debate on Thursday, including claims that he actually won the 2020 election.<\/p>\n<p>Biden, 81, failed to refute them and his fumbling, halting performance has sparked calls from Democrats for him to end his quest for a second term and for &#8220;soul-searching&#8221; or resignations among top aides. &#8220;My only request was make sure he&#8217;s rested before the debate, but he was exhausted. He was unwell,&#8221; said one person who said they appealed to Biden&#8217;s top aides in the days before, to no avail. &#8220;What a bad decision to send him out looking sick and exhausted.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Others were even more pointed. &#8220;It is my belief that he was over-coached, over-practiced. And I believe [senior aide] Anita Dunn&#8230; put him in a venue that was conducive for Trump and not for him,\u201d said John Morgan, a Florida-based attorney and major Biden fundraiser.<br \/>\nMorgan said Dunn and her husband, Bob Bauer, the president\u2019s attorney who played Trump in pre-debate rehearsals, should &#8220;be fired forever and never let back anywhere near the campaign.&#8221; So when we are out, when we&#8217;re visible, when we are our authentic selves, that&#8217;s how the world knows us.<\/p>\n<p>Biden&#8217;s debate strategy was signed off on by campaign chair Jen O&#8217;Malley Dillon, who helped him win in 2020 and was appointed in January to boost an uneven reelection campaign. Dunn, a longtime Biden aide and former Barack Obama campaign strategist, backed that strategy. Confidence going into the event was high. Trump was convicted of falsifying documents by a jury in New York on May 31, while Biden held back-to-back visits in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>To the surprise of some Biden aides, his stubbornly low poll numbers began to inch up nationally in the weeks that followed. Advisers set up a rigorous debate prep calendar, with Biden sequestered at Camp David for six days. An inner circle, some close to Biden for decades, were involved: Ron Klain, his first White House chief of staff, Dunn, former White House counsel and long-time adviser Mike Donilon, as well as about a dozen other policy and political experts.<\/p>\n<p>Biden&#8217;s campaign said on Friday that no staff shake-up was under consideration. Multiple aides, not just Dunn and Bauer, were involved in the preparation, said a campaign official, who also noted that Morgan was not there. In an email to supporters Saturday, O&#8217;Malley Dillon said internal polls and focus groups showed no change in voters&#8217; opinions in battleground states after the debate. She warned &#8220;overblown media narratives&#8221; may drive &#8220;temporary dips in the polls,&#8221; but said she was confident Biden would win in November.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/joe-bidens-disastrous-debate-blamed-bad-preparation-exhaustion-2024-06-30\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/joe-bidens-disastrous-debate-blamed-bad-preparation-exhaustion-2024-06-30\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/joe-bidens-disastrous-debate-blamed-on-bad-preparation-exhaustion\/\">Joe Biden&#8217;s disastrous debate blamed on bad preparation, exhaustion<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[3990,574,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-132080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-president","tag-us","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132080\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
