Biden Says Only God Could Make Him Quit US Presidential Race Against Trump [Video]

United States President, Joe Biden has responded to claims about his fitness to run for a second term, saying only God could make him step aside.

Biden spoke during in a 22-minute interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, his first since a difficult debate against Donald Trump,

Biden acknowledged he had a “bad episode” during the debate, where he stumbled and froze on stage, leading to calls for him to step down.

When asked if he watched the debate again, Biden said, “I don’t think I did, no.”

Stephanopoulos asked if he would step down if he couldn’t beat Trump. Biden replied, “It depends on if the Lord Almighty comes down and tells me that. I might do that.”

“If the Lord Almighty said ‘Joe, get out of the race,’ I’d get out of the race but the Lord Almighty is not coming down.”

The president admitted he couldn’t “run the 100 in 10 flat” but insisted, “I’m still in good shape.”

Stephanopoulos asked if he was the same man as when he took office three-and-a-half years ago.

In terms of success, yes. I also was the guy who put together a peace plan for the Middle East that may be comin’ to fruition,” Biden said, adding that he expanded NATO and grew the economy.

‘All the individual things that were done were ideas I had or I fulfilled. I moved on,” he said.

Despite concerns for his health, Biden refused to commit to taking independent cognitive and neurological tests, batting down questions from Stephanopoulos about them.
