Staggering 82% don’t think Biden should still run for president: Post poll

A huge majority of people believe President Biden should drop out of the 2024 race for the White House after Thursday night’s debate debacle, a new Post poll shows.

Eighty-two percent of respondents said the 81-year-old Democrat should not run for re-election in the wake of his disastrous face-off against former President Donald Trump.

In comparison, just 18% said Biden should keep campaigning.

As of Friday morning, a total of 3,340 people had cast their vote in The Post’s poll, which was put out after Biden went head to head with Trump in the first 2024 presidential debate.

The results come after Biden’s raspy and halting attempts to confront his GOP rival on stage sparked fresh calls for the incumbent to consider stepping aside as his party’s nominee — just four months out from the election.

Biden has already insisted he has no plans to call it quits, telling supporters in Atlanta, Ga., just moments after leaving the debate stage, “Let’s keep going.”

A Biden campaign rep was even more adamant first thing Friday, insisting, “Of course he’s not dropping out.”

Meanwhile, separate polling released Friday showed 67% of debate watchers believed that Trump turned in a better performance than Biden.

The poll, published by CNN, also found that a majority of registered voters (57%) came away with no real confidence in Biden’s ability to lead the country.
