Biden calls Kamala Harris ‘Vice President Trump’ at top of error-laden ‘big boy’ press conference: ‘Qualified to be president’
SUMMARY
President Biden's press conference at the NATO summit turned chaotic as he confused Vice President Kamala Harris with former President Donald Trump, adding to previous mix-ups between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky. Biden, 81, spoke with a raspy voice, paused frequently, and struggled with his train of thought. His remarks, intended to dispel doubts about his candidacy, instead fueled concerns about his cognitive abilities. Former President Trump mocked Biden's gaffes on social media, further intensifying scrutiny. Despite efforts to clarify his statements, Biden's struggles with accuracy and coherence during the hour-long event vindicated the growing calls within his party for him to step aside.
