Biden says again he’s not exiting the race
Joe Biden’s interview with George Stephanopoulos has ended after roughly 23 minutes.
The conversation, tense at times, ended with Biden remaining defiant about his position in the race and repeatedly dismissing Stephanopoulos’s questions about his dire polling and the growing backlash within his party.
Toward the end of the conversation, Stephanopoulos asked, “If you stay in and Trump is elected, and everything you’re warning about comes to pass, how will you feel in January?”
Biden responded, “As long as I gave it my all and did as good a job as I know I could do, that’s what this is about.” Biden ended by saying he was the best person for the job and that people should judge his performance at the Nato conference in Washington DC next week: “Come listen. See what they say.”
