President Joe Biden reaffirmed his commitment to remaining in the presidential race during an interview that aired on the evening of July 17, stating that he would reconsider his decision to run only if doctors were to inform him that he had a medical condition.

“If I had some medical condition that emerged,” President Biden responded when asked if there was anything that might change his mind. “If doctors came to me and said, ‘You got this problem, that problem.’”
