President Biden has faced growing drop-out pressure from Democratic lawmakers, donors and from some voter polling after his debate flop against Donald Trump.
Honestly, that this is the headline from the meeting is kind of ridiculous.
I absolutely think Biden should step down and hand the torch to whoever is best able to make the case for their beating trump between now and the convention.
But he was always slipping up with word switches over his career.
He was actually very on top of the policy nuances in this Q&A - 1,000x better than Trump could have dreamed of being.
The one word switch in an hour of nuanced policy discussions as the headline is more a failure of the media than Biden.
Even though he def should be making way as his decline is going to get worse and more info is going to come out.

This a million times over. He did a great job the whole time and had one weird slip up, and all the media cares about is the slip up.
Fuck the media. Focus on the substantive part of the meeting, not the one meaningless gaffe. I say stupid shit all the time by accident, it doesn’t matter. It’s not even a sign of age, people just do this kind of thing because we’re human.
A great job the whole time? This gaffe aside, he seemed to lose his train of thought a number of times, he didn’t directly answer some questions and, when he was “on”, he just seemed to repeat parts of his speeches. We can do better. While not my first choice, Kalama is better.
The media was seething because they can’t just run another word flub every day. Biden turned their repeated questions about minor misstatements into a policy discussion.
They don’t want to run the story “NATO meeting a success” because it doesn’t get as many clicks as “Biden secretly nuts”. They’ve become tabloids.

Well yeah because trump has the mind of a 3rd grader and spews out word salads with no substance to every question because he doesn’t understand any of the questions.

Has he had an appearance recently that hasn’t had at least one? Maybe we should ask the leader of Ukraine, President Putin.
