President Biden made another attention-grabbing gaffe on Friday, declaring he would beat President Trump “again in 2020,” drawing ridicule online.
After being panned for his performance in last week’s presidential debate, Biden campaigned in the key battleground state of Wisconsin, reiterating his determination to remain in the race.
“You all know I did a little debate last week. Not my best performance, but since then there’s been a lot of speculation: ‘What is Joe going to do? Is he going to stay in the race? Is he going to drop out? What is he going to do?’ Well, here’s my answer,” Biden said. “I’m going to run and I’m going to win again!”

Biden praised the Wisconsin crowd for helping him win the 2020 election, but said some were trying to throw him out of the election.
“Let me say this as clearly as I can: I will continue my campaign. I will defeat Donald Trump. I will defeat him again in 2020,” he said.
After a long pause, he adds: “Oh yeah, by the way, we’re doing it again in 2024!”

“You know things are getting desperate when a candidate adds time travel to his campaign platform,” joked Edward Feathers, a philosophy professor at Pasadena City College.

“The American political system [a] “The clown car is hurtling towards the abyss,” podcast host Oron McIntyre wrote.
