Biden BOMBS Press Conference

During a press conference held during NATO’s 75th anniversary, President Biden flubbed Zelensky’s name during his introduction. This has happened many times to Biden before, and has habitually been explained by the media as a “stutter.”

Biden’s error was compounded when he referred to Trump as his Vice-President. These two mistakes, in addition to his slowed and confused speaking style, will likely trigger Democrats to continue their insurrection against him. Fox News says:

In his latest embarrassing gaffe, President Biden on Thursday introduced Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the NATO conference in Washington, D.C., as “President Putin.”

”And now I want to hand it over to the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination,” Biden said, before starting to leave the podium. “Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin.”

A large segment of Democrat politicians has remained silent so far, offering neither support nor condemnation of Biden. However, at least three Democrats have drafted statements telling Biden to withdraw in case he messed up his press conference. Politico says:

The lawmakers are among a large faction of Democrats who have so far remained largely silent about Biden’s future despite major concerns about his ability to defeat former President Donald Trump. The people familiar with discussions declined to specify on record the members who were preparing statements against Biden or ready to do so.

“This is a moment that will make a difference,” said Rep. Dan Kildee (D-Mich.), who is retiring from his Michigan swing seat this fall. He noted the unscripted press conference, occurring at the end of the three-day NATO gathering in D.C., will be Biden’s first chance after a shaky ABC News interview with George Stephanopoulos to convince the public he can win. During that interview, Biden dismissed his unnerving debate performance two weeks ago as simply a “bad night.”

Although Biden’s performance was not as bad as the debate against Trump, it is not good enough to dig him out of the hole he’s dug for himself. This fight will likely continue, with Biden having fewer opportunities to bring these Democrats back to him until the nomination next month.
