“Good Morning America” host George Stephanopoulos had to issue a retraction for a statement he made about President Joe Biden, following a conversation with a passerby who recorded the exchange.
‘I responded to a question from a passerby. I shouldn’t have.’
TMZ called it a “stunning” admission made by the former campaign aide to Bill Clinton on Tuesday.
“Do you think Biden should step down? You’ve talked to him more than anybody else has lately,” the pedestrian asked Stephanopoulos.
“I don’t think he can serve another four years,” he responded simply.
WATCH:
TMZ obtained the footage and published it, which led to Stephanopoulos contacting the outlet to say he should not have made the comment.
“Earlier today, I responded to a question from a passerby. I shouldn’t have,” he said.
ABC News also disassociated itself from his remark.
“George expressed his own point of view and not the position of ABC News,” the company said.
‘That’s not what our polls show.’
After Democrats demanded his withdrawal from the campaign following the tumultuous first presidential debate on CNN, Biden agreed to an interview with Stephanopoulos in an attempt to address concerns about his competence.
However, rather than quelling doubts, the interview ended up exacerbating the already existing division and discontent within the Democratic Party.
“Do you really believe that you’re not behind right now?” asked Stephanopoulos. “Just when you look at the reality though, Mr. President.”
“Well, I don’t believe that’s my approval rating. That’s not what our polls show,” said Biden when told he was at 36% approval.
He went on to claim that he was exhausted before the debate and admitted that it was not a good night for his campaign.
The president has since said emphatically that he is not going to leave the race and that he believes he can beat Trump.
“I want you to know that despite all the speculation in the press and elsewhere, I am firmly committed to staying in this race, to running this race to the end, and to beating Trump,” read a statement attributed to Biden.
“I can respond to all this by saying clearly and unequivocally: I wouldn’t be running again if I did not absolutely believe I was the best person to beat Donald Trump in 2024,” he added.
Several polls indicate that Trump has widened his lead over Biden following the contentious debate.
A majority of respondents in one poll expressed concerns about Biden’s mental and cognitive abilities, indicating they do not believe he should serve as president.

This abomination of a man says he thinks he is the “best person to beat Trump!” First off, that isn’t what any good American that runs for president should be making the driving force for seeking the presidency about! It is about “am I the best person to do the job very well of saving America from the graveyard spiral that it’s in,” which it is because of “Biden’s abysmal failure” (with his handlers or actually puppeteers) at executing all the duties and responsibilities of the Presidency over the last 3.5 years!
Hands down Biden is the “WORST” person we could want as our President! I tell you this; I know for sure if he were scrutinized by a battery of medical doctor experts for fitness of body for this job alone, he would fail and moreover his mental condition which I am sure is off the charts and into “severe mental illness” (totally unstable do you hear me) this guy shouldn’t be anywhere near the “operational end of our governments power structure let alone as the Chief Executive of it!”
He’s had physical incapacitation falling down stairs as he climbs up into Air Force One or some steps at some public events he does the same tripping and falling. Somebody better make sure all the truth comes out fast like in days or just a few weeks because this SOB has always been insane, and is the worst he has ever been mentally right now!
Two choices, his criminal belongs in prison but if they want to just put a feed bag on him and send him out to pasture that will do for now! Get him the hell out of our government!
Sorry typo; this criminal.

This country gone to hell in 3.5 years we can’t take anymore of Biden and democrats destroying our country. Biden’s family is so corrupt and crooked he should of been impeached and put in prison for Treason. He’s brain dead and the democrats are going to blame everything on him even though we know he’s not making any decisions it’s the democrats making all the decisions. If you vote for democrats in November you deserve what you’re going to get. Trump is the only one who can fix what Biden screwed up. If you want open borders your a asshole it should be done the proper way. We don’t know who’s coming into this country pull your head out of your ass and wake up. You can’t be that stupid to vote for Biden. We had a great economy and safe country and low interest rates safest border in America under Trump get over your self who cares if you don’t like his personality you’re not in bed with him your trying to save money and enjoy life.
You can’t tell me you’re better of now under Biden than you were with Trump because you’re a lying to yourself. Vote for America and Trump in November
