George Stephanopoulos’ coming interview with President Biden is too hot to delay.
ABC News said it will move an interview between the anchor and President Joe Biden to Friday evening, rather than waiting until Sunday morning as previously planned, a sign of the extreme interest in seeing the Commander in Chief address issues of physical and mental fitness in the wake of a poor debate performance against former President Donald Trump last week.
Stephanopoulos is expected to talk to President Biden earlier in the day Friday from the campaign trail in Wisconsin. The first clip of the interview will air on Friday’s broadcast of “World News Tonight” as planned, and will run again Sunday during “The Week,” where it was to have first surfaced in completed form.
The interview is seen as a crucial test for President Biden, who is under extreme pressure after appearing listless and even confused during the debate, which was telecast by CNN. Biden on Friday vowed to stay in the race, even though there has been much speculation that Democrats feel he may have to step aside if they are to win Americans’ votes in November.
More to come…
