“Has there been any discussion about his resignation?” Bash asked.
“I haven’t spoken to the president since Friday and, uh, if he asked me for my opinion, I would give it as I always would, which is that it’s clear that he should stay in this race,” Clyburn continued. .
He also claimed Biden needs to prepare differently for the next debate.
“If you’re going to have another debate, the preparation for the debate needs to be different. There’s no doubt in my mind,” Clyburn continued.
