Biden continues to fall behind Trump in polls as he admits he ‘screwed up’ debate: Live

Democrat concedes he had ‘a bad night’ on stage in Atlanta as Republican rival sneers at possibility of Kamala Harris succeeding him.

Joe Biden has conceded he “screwed up” at last week’s disastrous CNN presidential debate against Donald Trump in Atlanta, Georgia, as pressure on him to step aside continues amid worrying polling, particularly in key battleground states.

 “I had a bad night,” the president told a Wisconsin radio host on Thursday.
