Joe Biden's future continues to hang in the balance after his debate performance spurred a chorus of calls from Democrats demanding he drop out of his reelection race. 

The president had a post-debate interview with ABC News on Friday that was meant to quell concerns, but only led to more worries within the Party with just weeks until the Democratic National Convention.  

Biden is heading to swing state of Pennsylvania on Sunday to try and recover public perception. 

And Vice President Kamala Harris is going to Las Vegas, Nevada this week as her name is floated among those who could replace Biden for the presidential ticket in November.

An anonymous document written by senior Democratic operatives argue Vice President Kamala Harris is the 'one realisitic path' out of the 'mess' created by President Joe Biden's debate performance.

The operatives claim they have no personal or professional ties to Harris, according to a copy of the document reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

Biden insists he will not step aside despite calls for him to drop out after bombing his debate against Donald Trump last month.

Harris, 59, is one of a few names Democrats are floating, but she has not beaten Trump in most polls and doesn't lead in surveys among those who want to see Biden replaced by another candidate.

The VP is heading to Las Vegas, Nevada on Tuesday for a solo campaign stop.

Biden donors say 9 in 10 think president should end his reelection bid

Campaign donors believe Joe Biden is in 'denial' about the need for him to withdraw from the presidential election for Democrats to be successful in 2024.

The president insists he is still in the race as donors are becoming increadsingly worried about his mental acuity and fitness for office following his train wreck debate performance against Donald Trump.

Sentiment is growing among inner circles and the public that it's time for Biden to end his reelection bid.

One donor estimates, according to The Washington Post:

For every 10 people who think he should exit, one thinks he should stay.

Biden flub-filled post-debate radio interview was scripted, host reveals

President Joe Biden's team provided a radio host with what questions to ask in his first post-debate interview.

In the disasterous interview, the 81-year-old appeared in even more cognitive decline as he called himself a black woman – and now its revealed the sit-down was scripted.

WURD radio in Philadelphia was sent eight questions to ask the president.

Journalist Andrea Lawful-Sanders says she ended up asking four - with Biden still managing to make a mess of his answers.

The president sparked a flurry of headlines after saying he was a 'black woman,' apparently while attempting to hail his appointment of Kamala Harris as vice president.

While his flub has been defended as a slip of the tongue, critics - including many within his own party - say Biden needs to get it perfect after his disastrous debate performance.
