Joe Biden claims he was ‘exhausted’ during blunder-filled TV debate | US News

Joe Biden has attributed his recent blunders to “exhaustion” and claims he won’t be dropping out of the presidential race.

The US president went up against Donald Trump in a debate earlier in the week, but didn’t seem on form. However, Biden insists it was just a “really bad cold”.

“I have a cognitive test every single day,” Biden told ABC News. “Can I run 110 flat? No. But I’m still in good shape.”

The 85-year-old has faced a number of out-of-character moments in recent weeks, including claiming he was the “first Black woman to run alongside a Black president”.
