That’s well out of SlowJoe’s comfort zone. So I gotta wonder, is somebody in the Democrat hierarchy deliberately setting the old guy up to fail?

President Joe Biden, facing a political crisis as Democrats question the viability of his campaign and mental fitness, will be put to the test on Thursday when he holds his first solo news conference of the year.
The high-stakes moment is an opportunity for Biden to change the narrative after his poor debate performance triggered a drumbeat of concerns in his own party that he might be too weakened to win against Donald Trump this November.
But any stumbles in the unscripted setting could add fuel to the fire, despite Biden's repeated attempts to rebuff his critics and his insistence that he is staying in the race.
Many Democrats have said they need to see Biden clearly answer questions without faltering or losing his train of thought -- what so alarmed them about his debate showing with Trump two weeks ago.
The news conference will come after Biden concludes hosting a NATO summit in Washington.
Biden kicked off that off with a strong speech on the strength of the alliance, which is marking its 75th anniversary, and an announcement of new air defense capabilities for Ukraine in its fight against Russia.

But there are now nine House Democrats and one Democratic senator who have called on Biden to resign. Privately, many have expressed concern about the possibility of not only losing the presidency but also the House and Senate if Biden remains atop of the ticket.

He is: delusional, confused, deranged, senile, demented, unbalanced, flipped, fried, loco, nuts, crazy? All of the above?
Presser should be a riot.
Scary, isn't it?
You mean the meaningless stupid questions the so called press will be asking?
Dr. Feelgood says that’s the optimal time for his drugs, today.
Since today is 7-11, will Joe Biden speak with an Indian accent?
Joe Biden was recently on CNN explaining how he was taken out of context when he said “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”
Alternatively, chances are he will f**k up royally.
Must see.

Biden’s Make or Break ‘Big Boy’ Press Conference Scheduled for Late Afternoon Following Long Day of NATO Meetings
Truth causes their tongues to shrivel up
Don’t forget to watch Biden’s body language—it is part of his dementia weirdness—he is just “off” and acts lost and confused.
What is it with the little hop, skip and jump he has been doing lately when he remembers he has to move?
My wife has started calling him Skippy.
Drill baby, drill. Long and hard and deep.
Will Biden announce he is resigning? Will he endorse Harris?
Ah, yes, the ‘Big Boy’ news conference. The kind of news conference that Presidents, governors, mayors, and even library heads are expected be be able to handle, a Big Boy news conference.
Which begs the question: what kind of news conferences has Biden had up to now?
Contrast Joe's attempt at speed talk with Ben Shapiro's pace.
Yes, I think Joe could benefit from a slower pace...
However, that will just lengthen the time he will need to maintain a coherent thought.
Which is better/worse - fast gibberish or slow gibberish?
My popcorn is on the stove...
Oh so THIS is the pivotal moment. How many “pivotal” moments has he had the past three years?
If he’s only viable between 10 and 4, then why hold the presser at 5:30?
That’s well out of SlowJoe’s comfort zone. So I gotta wonder, is somebody in the Democrat hierarchy deliberately setting the old guy up to fail?
