Biden Stands Defiant on Critical Night: A Last-Ditch Effort to Salvage His Campaign?

| Watch the US president mix up world leaders' names twice - and make the case for why he can beat Trump |
Joe Biden announced at his press conference on Thursday night that everything happened - his presidency, his election hopes, his political life.
If this is the case, then he manages to note the one-hour session that marks the end of the NATO meeting, since Zelenskyi has presented the president of Ukraine as "President Putin" at the moment separate. His th press conference was his first unscripted appearance since his infamous spat with rival Donald Trump, and many Democrats and donors called for him to drop out of the presidential race.
Mr. Biden, 81, has faced many questions about his age and ability to serve again that have intensified since the debate.
However, at the expected press conference, he dismissed concerns about his campaign repeatedly in a room full of journalists, promising that he was not fighting for a legacy but to finish things. it started when he was arrested. in his office in 2021.
"If I give up and I can't do the job, that's a sign that I'm not going to do it," he said. "But there's no sign yet."
Depending on one's point of view, this is a guilty decision or a sign that one denies the greatness of one's situation.
Minutes after the news conference ended, several Democratic members of Congress publicly invited Biden to join at least a dozen other members of the president's party.
The question for Joe Biden's campaign is whether the floodgates will open now or whether the sea will hold.
The situation is not helped by two terrible mistakes that everyone who watched it will remember.
In his first response, he called his vice president, Kamala Harris, "Vice President Trump" - a painful face in front of a national television audience.
It came just an hour after another press conference at the NATO event when Mr Biden introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as "President Putin", stirring up the audience.
He quickly addressed the first issue involving the Ukrainian leader. He did not do the second, although some reporters in the room complained in surprise, most of his secretaries sat in the first row of the stone. This moment - a big stumble in a nonsensical video - will make the Democrats worry if there will be more wrong if the president continues his campaign . 
Biden says Kamala Harris 'qualified to be president'
But at least for now, Mr. Biden looks like a happy hero and insists on going forward. He laughed and smiled as he was interviewed and said he could get along with Russia's Vladimir Putin and China's Xi Jinping, even if the breathing and coughing results from his debate two weeks ago will still last.
He insisted that he did not need any medical examination, telling reporters that even if he saw "two or seven doctors", his critics would not be satisfied.
The election campaign has begun, he said, and expressed his confidence in defeating Donald Trump in the November election. The Democratic delegates who have publicly endorsed him as the party's nominee at next month's convention are free to change their minds as they please, he said, before laughing under his breath: " That doesn't happen."
He said he would consider resigning if his officials told him he would not win, but polls still show the race as a tie.
In this sense, he stood on firm ground. According to an Ipsos poll published earlier on Thursday, for example, Mr. Biden trailed his opponent by just one point — well within a margin of error. If one thing has been clear since the beginning of the year, it's that despite the unprecedented drama surrounding the two candidates, support for both candidates has remained strong. The polls not only calmed the fears of Democratic operatives, but the intense atmosphere surrounding the Biden campaign is not going away anytime soon. . It is reported that many Democratic politicians are waiting to announce their decision to the president and to express their feelings until the end of the NATO meeting. But this is only the first round for the strong president. On Monday, he did another big interview with NBC's Lester Holt. Donors are worried, and several reports earlier Thursday showed that even the president's campaign staff is plotting how to make their candidate appear.
Despite all this, Mr. Biden made it clear that it will be a difficult task to leave the nomination. The 81-year-old, who sometimes holds the show with both hands and insists that he is the "best man" running the country, will not leave the stage quietly.
