Minority Leader Jeffries, please tell them. What is done in November not only matters America, its the world.

I would love to see Hakeem Jeffries debate tRump, and WIPE the floor with him!

When you vote for a president you are voting not only for the individual but for his/her entire support staff, cabinet, justices they will appoint, etc. Even if that person becomes unable to govern, the VP and all those others will be able and will continue the work. Nowadays, with Congress so polarized and all votes basically go along party lines, you vote for the party and not the person. A few decades ago this was not true, but here we are. So even if you are worried about Biden, and he does have his issues now but still has a lot going for him, you can be sure that voting for him is light years better and safer than the alternative. Project 2025 illustrates that danger but is not the only evidence that we MUST keep that party out of power. Power is all they want, and not for the purpose of helping all of us. Trump wants to stay out of prison, first and foremost, and to feed his starving pathetic ego.

Support BLUE/BIDEN/HARRIS TICKETS FOR THE WHITE HOUSE 2024

BIDEN has spoken 21 times since the debate and he has done great every time, so no need for concern. One bad debate from a bad cold is not a reason to drop out, so everybody needs to stop this nonsense talk right now!!!

[orffrocks]

Can the Press fall any lower in the public’s mind’s?

[charlottegibbs]

I understand concerns about Biden and have my own. But to call for him to drop out is very poorly considered at this time. Democrats didn't do enough to keep Trump out in 2016 and removing Biden at this point would be another critical error.

I'm becoming a huge Hakeem Jeffries fan. He's just excellent.

[LindaRivera-xbkf]

The dems need unity, not decension. Stick by President Biden.

[orffrocks]

Leader Jeffries, give it to them! Stay on your message like you are and ignore their stupidity.

[ramonajackson]

How redundant and pure irritating that the JOURNALISTS ask SAME QUESTION 20 different ways. MAIN stream media and print are so pathetic.

[gingercake]

I don’t agree that President Biden has been damaged by the debate to the extent that it will cause him to lose the election. His record speaks for itself and He has accomplished a lot of what we put him office to do. What Democrats need to do is back President Biden and every Democrat in this country on the local, state and federal government level in November 2024.

[C.M.]

BIDEN NEEDS TO STAY IN AND NOT DROP OUT, SO STOP BRINGING IT UP OR ENTERTAINING QUESTIONS !!! THERE'S NO REASON TO DROP OUT. THE POINT IS MOOT. WE'RE RIDEN WITH BIDEN !!!

[debbraflowers]

Well spoken Hakeem Jeffries. I applaud your effort while listening to your speech today. You give me hope.

[lesissmilinglytryin]

Thank you Speaker Jeffries. I am RIDEN with BIDEN

[harrysedor]

Im riding with Biden, Leader Hakeem Jeffries & Democrat's are #1

[Ernie]

Dem House Leader Jeffries and Rep. Jasmine Crockett give me a lot of hope in the middle of such turmoil.

[cdd]

Jeffries is awesome. Even if Biden were in a coma, I would vote for him over the alternative. Project 2025? I don’t think so. Trump for prison 2025!
