Summary
People Magazine on Wednesday published Joe Biden saying his June 27, 2024 debate against Donald Trump was "not very consequential," adding he expected a second debate that never happened.
24 days after that debate, Biden ended his 2024 campaign under pressure from Democratic allies, after a performance marked by verbal stumbles, long pauses and confused expressions.
X posts from Republican figures including Steve Cortes, Matt Whitlock and Ron DeSantis quickly cast the debate as decisive, with Whitlock calling it the most consequential presidential debate in history.
The remarks land as Biden prepares to release his memoir on Nov. 17 and says he will scale back promotional appearances while undergoing cancer treatment.
