A spokesperson for US President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign says Biden came down with a cold and a sore throat before last night’s debate, but adds that this is not an excuse for what the president has acknowledged was not a good performance against Donald Trump.

The spokesperson tells reporters traveling with Biden that the president will participate in the next debate on September 10.
