President Joe Biden said on Friday that he is in good shape to run for reelection and believes he is the most qualified Democrat candidate to defeat his rival, former President Donald Trump. The president made these remarks in his first television interview following last week’s presidential debate.

“Can I run the 100 in 10 flat? No. But I’m still in good shape,” President Biden said during an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos in Wisconsin.
