Biden's inner circle remains tight-lipped as the party faces backlash after the "embarrassing" debate performance.

The president's advisors are absent after the disastrous debate performance by the Democrat on Thursday.

Immediately following the debate, Biden faced criticism from media figures and politicians for his "weak" voice, "old" appearance, and inability to convince Americans of his stamina and ability to serve another four years as President.

None of Biden's closest confidants defended him or offered any reaction to the debate when Planet Chronicle Digital contacted them about calls for him to be replaced as the party's presidential candidate.

The list of Biden's inner circle who have not made any public comment after the debate includes former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, who led debate preparations, his successor Jeff Zients, senior campaign advisor Anita Dunn, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Counselor to the President Steven Richetti, and others.

At least 16 current and former aides were part of the group that assisted with Biden's debate preparations, which took place over a week at Camp David in Maryland.

In tight Senate and House races, Democrats remained silent on the debate surrounding calls for Biden to step aside, and largely ignored Planet Chronicle Digital's questions on the matter.

Obama admitted to having a "bad" debate, but still supported Biden.

Obama acknowledged that his former vice president did not give a strong performance for the Democratic Party and the American people in a message on X.

Trust me, I know firsthand that bad debate nights can occur. However, this election presents a clear choice between a candidate who has dedicated their life to fighting for the interests of the common people and another who solely focuses on their own self-interest.

He continued to criticize former President Trump and support Biden, stating, "The choice between a leader who speaks truthfully and makes right decisions for the benefit of the American people versus someone who lies for their own gain remains crucial. Last night did not alter this, and it is why the outcome of the election in November is of great importance."
