Joe Biden says he 'nearly fell asleep' during debate after world travel
During a campaign event in McLean, Virginia, U.S. President Joe Biden admitted that his performance in last Thursday's presidential debate against former President Donald Trump was not his best, attributing it to jet lag from two overseas trips earlier in June. Biden had traveled to France and Italy, crossing multiple time zones before returning to the U.S. for the debate. Despite this, a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll indicates Biden's support remains steady, with one in three Democrats suggesting he should end his reelection bid. Election Day is November 5.
