00:00Is President Biden considering stepping down?
00:04Absolutely not.
00:05And you heard, I believe, directly from the campaign as well.
00:08Is the President telling people he's evaluating the race?
00:12Absolutely false.
00:13That is absolutely false.
00:14I saw that reporting.
00:16We were not given enough time to get back to that reporting, just a couple of minutes,
00:20and we asked the President.
00:22The President responded directly when asked about this question, because we said that
00:27we would, and the President said it is no.
00:29It is absolutely false.
00:31That's coming directly from him.
00:32And Korean President Biden has always promised to tell the American people the truth.
00:37So can you be straight with us and the American people, is the President clear-eyed about
00:41what it takes to stay in the race and what it would take for him to drop out?
00:47The President is clear-eyed, and he is staying in the race.
00:50I don't have anything else beyond that.
00:52He is staying.
00:53He's staying in the race.
00:55That is what the President has promised to do.
00:57That is what he wants to continue to work on the successes that he's had.
01:02His record is unprecedented record, and that is what the President is focused on, continuing
01:08to deliver for the American people.
