According to reports, after President Joe Biden's performance in the presidential debate, Hunter Biden—who was seen as "one of the strongest voices" in the Biden family—urged him to stay in the race.

Following his apparent confusion, he froze, struggled to finish his prepared closing statement, and made multiple false references. This led to reports that President Joe Biden was meeting with several Biden family members at Camp David to discuss the future of his presidential campaign.

The New York Times said that the president had met with a number of the Biden family's members, including first lady Jill Biden, son Hunter Biden, daughter Ashley Biden, and their grandkids.

The Biden family is reportedly pushing the president "to stay in the race and keep fighting," multiple anonymous sources close to the situation told the outlet, despite the fact that many donors, Democratic officials, and voters were left wondering if Biden would be able to serve a second term as president and calling for Biden to be replaced.

One of the "strongest voices" urging the president to stay in the presidential campaign was Hunter Biden, according to reports: The president has long looked to his son Hunter Biden for guidance, and he was among the loudest voices pleading with Mr. Biden to resist pressure to withdraw, according to one of the individuals with knowledge of the talks. Like others, Hunter Biden spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. Instead of the clumsy, elderly president that the American people saw on Thursday night, Hunter Biden wants them to see the tough, fact-aware version of his father that he knows."

The source also said that a number of Democrats and members of the Biden family, notably Democratic donor John Morgan, have accused former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, Biden's senior advisor Anita Dunn, and Biden's lawyer Bob Bauer of being responsible for Biden's dismal performance in the debate.

Biden checked into "debate camp" at Camp David ahead of his presidential debate matchup with former President Donald Trump, where he received "intense preparation and coaching."

“It would be like if you took a prizefighter who was going to have a title fight and put him in a sauna for fifteen hours then said, 'Go fight,'” Morgan said in an interview, the source said.

People like former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama have defended Joe Biden despite his performance in the presidential debate, saying that "bad debate nights happen."
