Joe Biden election concerns grow as repeated gaffes highlight potential challenges for his 2024 campaign, sparking debate over his...
A defiant Joe Biden insisted Thursday that he will run for another term as US president and beat Donald Trump, as a string of verbal gaffes at a major summit threw a harsh new spotlight on his fitness.
Biden's candidacy has been in crisis since a disastrous debate performance against Trump two weeks ago renewed concerns around his age -- and the rare solo press conference, lasting about an hour, was designed to show he still has what it takes. The president has faced a steady drumbeat of Democrats calling for him to abandon his 2024 candidacy, fearing that Trump is in a position to beat him.Biden made clear he supported Harris -- who as vice president would take over from him in the event of an emergency, but is also seen by a growing number of Democrats as a stronger candidate at the top of the ticket.
He stressed too that neurological exams showed he was in"good shape" and said he would take another if his doctors recommended one, but they hadn't. Yet his relatively assured performance failed to stop the bleeding, with three more Democratic lawmakers calling for him to quit the race, bringing the total to 17."Crooked Joe begins his 'Big Boy' Press Conference with, 'I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president... Great job, Joe!" Trump said on his Truth Social site.
