After the official announcement, the White House said Jean-Pierre did not confirm the information because he understood that a consultation is different from a formal examination.

The current president’s performance was one of the highlights of the debate between the presidential candidates. Biden stuttered, seemed lost and had difficulty finishing sentences.

The Democrat’s team even attributed the poor performance to the time zone, given that Biden had been attending meetings outside the country. During his speech to reporters on Wednesday (July 3), Jean-Pierre mentioned that the cold also interfered.
