Biden Grapples With Political Fallout Following Presidential Debate: Live Updates

President Joe Biden is still dealing with the political fallout of his weak performance at the 2024 presidential debate, while former President Donald Trump is celebrating a big win after the Supreme Courts ruling in his immunity case.

The two presumptive presidential nominees met face-to-face for the first time in the 2024 election cycle at a debate hosted by CNN last Thursday. Bidens unsteady performance there has dominated the headlines since, leading some Democrats to privately question if he should step aside as the Democratic nominee.

On Monday, the Supreme Court handed Trump a victory when it released its opinion on Trump v. U.S., which declares that Trump has complete legal immunity for actions during his presidency that were official in nature, although not for those that were unofficial.

The ruling makes it highly unlikely that Trumps trial on charges related to inciting the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, will take place before the November election. It also complicates his other ongoing legal proceedings, including his recent hush money conviction .

Follow along below for live updates on the presidential race:

There is a conversation happening inside Bidens circle, and certainly a much more frank conversation happening inside the Democratic coalition, she said.

Asked by fellow MSNBC host Rachel Maddow what those conversations were, Wallace said they ranged from whether he should be in this race tomorrow morning, to what was wrong with him.

She added that she spoke directly with a Biden aide, who said, We cant necessarily spin too much what people did see and hear.","source":"","title":"MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace Says 'Conversations'

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace Says 'Conversations' Happening Among Democrats About Joe Bidens Performance

Immediately after the presidential debate concluded, MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace said she got on the phone early in the debate, when it became clear that Biden was struggling to communicate.

There is a conversation happening inside Bidens circle, and certainly a much more frank conversation happening inside the Democratic coalition, she said.

Asked by fellow MSNBC host Rachel Maddow what those conversations were, Wallace said they ranged from whether he should be in this race tomorrow morning, to what was wrong with him.

She added that she spoke directly with a Biden aide, who said, We cant necessarily spin too much what people did see and hear.
