President Joe Biden is scheduled to hold a news conference at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, his first solo press conference since his debate performance last month.
The event comes after hosting NATO leaders in Washington, D.C. this week.
The press conference presents a crucial opportunity for Biden to address concerns about his mental fitness and health issues, as he faces intense questioning from the media.
There has been pressure on Biden to withdraw from the presidential race following his poor performance at a Presidential election debate hosted by the Cable News Network (CNN).
The press conference has been dubbed a “big boy press conference” by the media, indicating that President Biden will face a solo grilling from the press corps, with no support or assistance from aides or handlers, and will be expected to respond to tough questions on his own.
The upcoming press conference may have significant implications for President Biden’s re-election bid. Notably, Hollywood actor and Biden supporter George Clooney has recently urged the President to reconsider seeking re-election, a stark contrast to his earlier support, which included hosting a high-profile fundraiser just weeks ago.
Additionally, influential Democrat and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested that Biden should make a decision about his re-election bid after the NATO summit, further fueling speculation about his political future.
Actor Michael Douglas, one of his supporters, also told ‘The View’ that he is “deeply concerned” about Biden’s ability to win the election.
SaharaReporters earlier reported that Biden had come under immense pressure to withdraw from the presidential race following his poor outing at the debate with Trump.
