- President Joe Biden will face reporters late Thursday afternoon in his first solo press conference since his disastrous debate last month. He is expected to be asked tough questions about his theory of case for running for president at 81, as polls show him behind his Republican opponent, former President Trump.
President Biden is gearing up for a crucial press conference Thursday evening, the first solo press event since the APEC Summit in California eight months ago.
On Nov. 15, Biden met with China’s President Xi Jinping and reportedly left the meeting optimistic that he had reduced tensions between U.S. and Chinese forces in the Asia-Pacific, a feat he was aiming to button up prior to announcing his re-election bid. The president's press conference for the summit lasted about 20 minutes, and he answered roughly five questions before leaving.
However, throughout Biden's 41 months as president, he has gone a total of 30 months without a solo news conference, 16 months without a TV news interview, and 10 months without either, according to a Fox News count.
President Biden's campaign is "quietly" testing Vice President Kamala Harris' performance against former President Trump in internal polling, the New York Times reported Thursday.
The Biden campaign's analytics team reportedly commissioned the survey this week as Biden is fending off a steady stream of defections from Democratic lawmakers and donors. The three sources insisted on anonymity before speaking with the Times, and they did not specify the plans behind the poll, the outlet reported.
The report is the first indication that Biden's campaign may be considering a change of course. Biden himself has insisted that he is staying in the race, and top Democratic leaders have backed him in public statements, though rumors of discontent continue to leak out from party sources.
A Thursday poll from ABC News and the Washington Post found that Biden and Trump are essentially tied, even as 67% of voters say they believe Biden should drop out of the race. That poll also tested Harris in a contest with Trump and found that she overperformed Biden, holding a slight lead of 49%-46%.
A White House official told The Atlantic that President Biden making a public gaffe at the NATO summit in Washington, D.C. might be fatal to his campaign.
"This is a terrible thing to say," an anonymous White House official told The Atlantic in a story published Wednesday. "But that might be the only thing that could force him out at this point, while there’s still time to rewrite the ending."
Biden's performance at the NATO summit this week has come under increased scrutiny amid concerns about the president's cognitive health and ability to serve.
"This week is pivotal for President Biden, not only because of the intense interest in what he will be saying at his press events but also because this summit provides a clear example of restored American global leadership in support of our nation’s defense," Joel Rubin, a former State Department official during the Obama administration, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday.
Atlantic columnist Mark Leibovich said that Biden was a danger to the country.
"Never underestimate the destructive power of a stubborn old narcissist with something to prove," Leibovich wrote.
"President Joe Biden, 81, is acting like one of history’s most negligent and pigheaded leaders at a crucial moment, and right now, we are all pedestrians," he added.
Former President Obama knew of George Clooney's New York Times guest essay calling for President Biden to drop out of the race but didn't object to it, according to a new report.
Clooney, a major Democratic donor who hosted a lavish fundraiser for Biden just weeks ago, published a devastating essay in the New York Times on Wednesday, demanding Biden step aside because of growing concerns over his mental acuity that were heightened after his disastrous presidential debate.
Politico reports that Clooney reached out to Obama beforehand to make him aware of the story to come, but Obama didn't try to stop him.
"While Obama did not encourage or advise Clooney to say what he said, he also didn’t object to it, we’re told from people familiar with their exchange. The lack of pushback is an eye-popping revelation given that the former president was one of the first big voices defending Biden following his abysmal debate performance (while many of his former aides have been some of the incumbent’s biggest critics)," the outlet reported.

I can't believe that thus is the best America has to offer. God help us all.
The best America has to offer is a convicted felon and notorious conman as opposed to a befuddled (on occasion) old man. God help us all indeed.
God help us all with trump
@@EMMA9801and me because I'm the same as president Trump ❤😂
WHAT????? You don’t live in the same world the rest of us do !!!
This man is a liar
According to Trump the Democrats will allow abortion after the baby is born.
When Trump went up for a casino license in New South Wales Australia. The state Police advised the state government to refuse Trump's bid due to his ties to New York LCN families. They refused his bid. For some bizarre reason the NSW police also state Trump was lying about how much his casino was going to make. Classic Trump.
Trump isn’t you can’t hear. 😂
Ironic.
Dems say he was answering live unrehearsed questions, but he simply was not - first words out of his mouth: "With that, I’ll take your questions. I’ve been given a list of people to call on here"
All a show.
I doubt Biden rehearsed calling President Zelenskyy. President Putin. Ludicrous. Hilarious. Trump is Jesus.
Let’s see…….prices are tripled wages are the same…..and how is that a good economy🤦♀️
If only Putin had not invaded Ukraine.
Trump would have stopped the invasion using his supple lips.
He is so hard to watch
Lying is like breathing to this man.
Trump is a pathological liar. It's what he does.
Lie after lie after lie during the presidential debate from Trump.
@@pete-ex7qt what has Trump got to do with it?
@@Goldboy1975 Seriously?
Trump sleeps, eats and lives with nothing else but lies😂
Honor your vows Jill.."In sickness and in Health". Step down with dignity Mr. President. Take care of your husband Jill.
Nice wife he had huh? NOT
Great job Mr president 👏 you got this stay in we need you and Trump to run
Where the hell has prices gone down????? They sure haven’t in the great state of Pennsylvania
Hi Maggie :) I don’t think the people in this country can give much more before every one starts to go insane it’s happing already
Joe Biden and Harris they both think it’s so funny that American family’s are struggling to pay bills make ends meet they say there administration has done well there getting filthy rich why can’t they help the American people like there adding Ukraine ????? Bring the price of life up let every one have a chance to maybe try and reach the American dream if there lucky in this life time there is to much rich people in Washington DC and there getting more rich each day Nancy pelosi got a jumbo jet for $550 million dollars that’s more then a president makes
Where are all these prices falling ? Ukraine maybe but NOT here at home.
Now doesn’t Pres Biden have a Vice President? Now isn’t that what her role is?
Federal laws don't explicitly prohibit purchases or ownership of firearms by people with dementia, and only two states - Hawaii and Texas do. Currently, only 2 states (Hawaii and Texas) specifically include dementia in their firearm statutes. These states prohibit the possession or purchase of firearms by individuals who have been diagnosed with dementia. I suspect that wouldn't include the Nuclear Football, that would be like Hunter's sister-in-law-wife throwing uranium in a dumpster across the street from a High School.
This is just as funny as mr bean. But mr bean is more sane....grab your popcorn ladies and gentlemen we are all players/actors here.. welcome to the shitshow!
Some people get it, the President isn't the best choice for the Office. The problem could be that they're in denial, as they can't accept that they voted for someone not fit for the job. Others, the people benefitting from his administration can't waste the opportunity to reap great profits. Like the kickbacks from all the bus companies transporting new comers around the country and the hotels accommodations.
Biden responds.... that s woke him up then...lol.. how dare you disturb his sleep...lol..
🎉Trump 47🎉
FJB
Please also question the way why trump confuses names and comes up with things like sharks, electrocution or the dang Hannibal. He slurs words he even confused Jean Carroll with his ex-wife😂😂😂😂DIDNT EVEN KNOW WHAT NATO WAS. etc…..
I wish 2 questions would have been asked:
Who is actually in charge of our country?
And
How much is Hunter selling his dad's niclear football for?
Joe Biden is the commander in chief.
Stop the lies!
Greatest President Ever!
