 The election 2024 on WTOP. The New York Times editorial board tonight is urging President Biden to leave the presidential election contest against Donald Trump. The paper cites Mr. Biden's poor debate performance. The stunning editorial came out less than 24 hours after the president gave a blundering performance in his first debate against Donald Trump in this year's race. In fairness, the president was much stronger on the stump today in North Carolina as he recounted his arguments with Trump on the debate stage. He lied about how great he was on crime.
