The situation in American politics is gloomy, reading the pages of the American media the morning after the televised duel between the two main candidates for the White House, the current president, Joe Biden, and the Republican rival, Donald Trump.
And if the Democrats are really thinking about replacing Biden with another candidate, a source from the president's campaign, however, categorically rules it out for NBC News.
"Absolutely not". Biden is not considering withdrawing from the race for re-election after the disappointing and disturbing debate.
New York Times: Panic among Democrats

The New York Times talks about a struggling Biden facing a Trump who was leading an attack.
But although the Republican attacks were "often false, without context or were so vague as to be misleading", all the attention of the American newspaper is on the performance of the president, which "has provoked a wave of panic among Democrats and reopened the debate about whether he should be a candidate".
"Instead of dispelling concerns about age, it ended up making it the main issue," the newspaper wrote, reporting text messages and phone calls from the first minutes of the debate.
Washington Post, a battle of insults

The reading of the Washington Post is identical, even in the choice of words.
Even for the capital's newspaper, Biden is struggling in the face of a Trump who avoids questions.
The debate is presented through the mutual insults of the two contenders, and here too, great space is left for the dilemma of the Democrats, who try to replace the candidate in the race.
CNN: Painful show
That it is a unanimous chorus is also demonstrated by the "CNN" website, the television that hosted the debate and also talks about a "disastrous Biden" in the face of Trump's "repeated lies".
"It was very painful", is the summary of the comments of the Democrats, who are currently pressing the "emergency button".
Wall Street Journal: Trump safer
It is significant that the Wall Street Journal, the newspaper of the business community, focuses on the president.
The news is not Trump's lies, but "the slurred words, hoarse voice and moments when Biden lost the thread of his speech."
However, the tycoon appeared "more confident", while "the president's answers on abortion, the debt and immigration were sometimes inconsistent or incoherent".
New York Post: How sad
Finally the right-wing newspapers rejoice.
Fox News talks about "panic" among Democrats, about a "hoarse and angular" Biden and about a "shocking poll" from CNN according to which, for 67 percent of viewers, it was the challenger who won the debate.
"Only sadness", how sad, is the headline on the front page of the New York Post, and the face is that of Joe Biden.
