's campaign chair on Monday told members of the campaign's National Finance Committee that the team is "clear-eyed, not pollyannish" after the president's poor debate performance, two participants on the call told CNN, but defended Biden's health and offered no indication he was reconsidering his bid for a second term.
Dillon offered no indication that Biden was considering changing course, three participants on the call told CNN, as she offered a staunch defence of his health. A member of the National Finance Committee who participated in the call said it was disappointing that the top Biden official sought to downplay the concerns, rather than hear them.Among the questions that O'Malley Dillon fielded was how Biden would do better in the next debate and what the campaign plans to do if the president dips in the polls, another donor on the call said.
Meanwhile, some top Democratic officials and supporters close to the White House have balked at the tone and language that some campaign officials have taken as part of their defence as the campaign has dug in after the debate.In particular, the decision by the campaign to refer to those who have called on Biden to drop out of the 2024 race because of their grave concerns after the CNN debate as "the bedwetting brigade" has fueled anger and dismay.
In one fundraising email over the weekend sent under the name of deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty, the campaign acknowledged the widespread panic that Biden's debate performance had caused.
