President Joe Biden is committed to performing in the upcoming second presidential debate despite a horrific showing on Thursday night in Atlanta, Georgia.

The 81-year-old president will return to the debate stage in September, CNN Senior White House Correspondent Kayla Tausche reported Friday morning, citing an advisor.
Meanwhile, Biden is also not considering dropping out of the race, despite groans from members of his own party to do so.
The Delaware native repeatedly froze and misspoke during the Thursday debate, which left doubts in the minds of every viewer that tuned in to see his mental and physical fitness.
Biden also spoke in a soft, scratchy voice, with anonymous aides claiming, “it was the result of a cold.”
“This was a disaster for Biden. Many Democrats are looking for a new candidate after this debate,” Doug Muzzio, a retired public affairs professor at Baruch College, told the New York Post.
“Biden was tentative, rambling and sometimes incoherent,” he said.
“Trump, on the other hand, was clear and relatively coherent. He looked like he knew what he was talking about.”
At one point of the debate, Biden paused for almost nine seconds, losing his train of thought only to look up and say that he “finally beat Medicare.”
