On June 28, President Biden attended the opening ceremony of the 'Stonewall National Monument Visitor Center' in New York. Following a disappointing performance in the first televised presidential debate on Thursday, concerns have arisen over the 81-year-old Biden's ability to secure re-election, with calls within the Democratic Party for a change in candidacy. Despite acknowledging his age and declining abilities, Biden remains determined to fulfill his duties and defeat his opponent, former President Trump. While many Democrats expressed disappointment privately after the debate, major donors of Biden suggested a switch in August during the party primaries, prompting Biden to withdraw. However, Biden's campaign spokesperson Michael Tyler emphasized no withdrawal discussion is ongoing, resisting the call for change. Although liberal media like the 'New York Times' urged Biden's replacement, Democratic figures like Clinton and Obama have voiced support for him. Obama stated on social media, 'Bad debates happen, trust me, I know. But this election is a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary people their whole life and someone who fights for themselves.' Biden's campaign reported fundraising of $14 million on the debate day and after, marking the highest fundraising hour post-debate.
