- President Biden is holding a highly anticipated solo press conference Thursday evening in hopes it will assuage the ongoing concerns Democratic lawmakers have voiced about his fitness for office and campaign viability. CBS News intelligence and national security reporter Olivia Gazis has more.

So taking questions is a "Major test" now huh? Setting the bar pretty low. Pathetic.
Right???? I would prefer he go on the expressway during rush hour😂😂😂😂
Go ahead😂 Anymore words of wisdom, Goober?😂@@rogerlewis7770
@@rogerlewis7770you could prolly put him in one of those cars for kids in front of grocery stores and convince him he's a big boy on the freeway 😂
@@TamirChezi 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He's running out of options to prove himself at this point, so next he will try juggling in the Oval Office while dressed in a clown suit...
Shouldn’t a President take questions on EVERY public appearance?
He doesn't have to, but it definitely isn't a good look.
Sometimes they come to give a speech and that's it.
It's becoming more rare.
only if they choose to
I hope Biden doesn't take questions it's unbearable to watch. God bless Biden. I wish him well, and I thank him for all the good these past 4 years for him except supporting the Genocide in Gaza and the wagging war against Russia through Ukraine
When is Pelosi not wasted?
What’s interesting about this clip with Nancy Pelosi is she says that she’s waiting for him to make a decision. He’s already decided to run. He doesn’t need to decide anything. I think she saying that they are waiting for him to say he’s quitting.
She actually said “secide” 😂
Exactly. This is what I understood. Nancy tried to mean that the decision of stepping down is up to the president, she doesn’t like to force him to resign.
That's really the only way to interpret it unless you assume she's unaware that he's been adamantly insisting he'll continue to run.
@@theshredder2846she's still sharp, misspeaks happen
Yep! Can't stand Pelosi but she usually picks her words carefully. She is basically saying Biden decided wrong and that he should decide again.
Why doesn't Biden take questions from reporters very often? Oh wait, we all know. We all fricken know.
This is so weak. The President of the United States should do several press conferences and take questions after every single one, several times a month!!
Can people get real about this? He is unfit and should have already been relieved of duty.....and could nancy pelosi be sober for just one interview?
Why can’t Trump be right. He has a point. It’s screwing us at home. Spend that $ on America.
Spend the money on what? The GOP has been actively trying to gut education, healthcare, food programs, head start, public programs, Social Security,... I guess a few more poor billionaires could use extra tax cuts so they can buy a new yacht. I highly doubt that the average person would see a net positive under a new Trump administration.
The money is being spent here. The weapons are built here by US workers and then sent to Ukraine.
@@azcomicgeek thats like me stealing your car, just to sell it back to you. How is it any better if its made here, the profits are going to contractors and we're borrowing/ printing money whuch devalues our currency
@turdburglar88 borrowing and printing money is what the Republicans call "trickle-down economics" ....
Debt rose more under Trump and he's saying we should be sending Israel more money.
Ive always been concerned about presidents after retirement age. The Office requires vigor and mental clarity.
If I might add, political integrity has been absconding from justice for centuries. Since Washington held Office, Treaty Alliances, War Policies and Overreaching Land Doctrines have infested The Office with Iniquity?
Iniquity's root meaning: injustice, not equal.
Example of vigor and mental clarity: Washington as a mantled General miraculously helped deliver Freedom to A Newly Conceived Nation dedicated to the proposition That All Blood Covenant Men/People are developed/maintained/created equally (Inalienable God Secured Right).
As a politician, Washington violated That spirit of the law that released, harmonized and illumined newness of invigorating life with mental clarity. Note: after retirement, Washington perished from a throat infection he acquired from going out in the damp cold without a coat, at an advanced age.
Integrity matters. Iniquity moves in the opposite direction of Establishing (Equal) Justice and Providing for The Common Defense.
For those with ambitions to lead an America to healing, vigor and mental clarity, histories relational and chronological context is vitally important. America wasn't a nation 400 years ago.
After seeing the rolling stones last night, again I call for foreign nationals to be eligible for this office. Mick Jaggers energy at the same age plus his great business acumen would be a plus
@@maryanngullo1that will never happen
So both sides should quit? The Felon is older now than Biden was the first time and he has never had mental clarity.
They should be talking about “The Issues”, but whatever🙄. Nowhere is it said that an empire lasts forever.
@johnnybush8764 .... and neither candidate really has great vigor and mental clarity
"A big boy conference" they say😂
Hilarious!
“You answered all the questions! Stickers and ice cream for you!”
It's called that because Jill told joe he was a big boy after the debates 🤪
You can bet Jill will be helping Joe put on his Big Boy pants right now.
Just choose Beavis & Butthead for Democratic Pres & VP. They would obviously do better than Biden & Harris !!!
When time and energy goes to questioning POTUS’ health, think of all of the important matters getting neglected.
You just nailed it!
yep, we can blame Biden and the DNC for that
The fascist Repubs rejected the border bill, launched fake investigations and impeachment shams. The Dems and Biden passed a great infrastructure bill, the Chips Act, and got bipartisan support for the PACT/(Vetrans’) Act.
But what have Dems neglected? Waiting.😅
Better than a convicted felon shown in pictures and videos hanging out with epstein!
But y'all like to pretend that isn't worse
@@bobfunck6749nope, corporate media and dnc. They going to mess around and let Trump con his way back into the white house by worrying about that 1 debate.
Correspondent in pink - there's no such word as "stanch". The word you were looking for is " staunch", as in 'Let's staunch the bleeding'.
Stanch - stop or restrict (a flow of blood) from a wound
Staunch - loyal and committed in attitude
- Oxford dictionary
I also noticed the grammatical mistake. It happens a lot in today's media world.
I am a staunch supporter of an environmentalist and his sidekick versed in tech/ai. Healthier for the kids!! None better for the current times.
Kennedy/Shanahan '24🇺🇸
edit- staunchly support taking our country back from mega corporations!
I'm in staunch opposition of the entire left
You are incorrect. Look it up.
No one cares what Clooney thinks, he lives in Italy, keep your opinions there.
What's wrong with VP Harris? She is the best DEI hire who checked every box.
The only box she checks is her own, lol.
How could CBS stop doing its job for so long? What is the date for CBS asking directly to Joe Biden and getting the non scripted answer?
CBS should be ashamed for itself.
Rest in peace.😮
I just had a stroke reading that😂
I couldnt agree more they stop covering up corruption this wouldnt be a problem i blame bad news
The COMMUNIST BROADCAST SYSTEM is running guard for BRANDON!
Biden’s just as sharp an any liberal out there
If there were allowed to be debates like they have always had. We would've seen this long ago. Kennedy and west would still be democrats and Bernie probably would've ran against Trump.
You might be able to take questions? But can he answer them so that people understand his answers?
Let me guess “I’m not stepping down.” Every time he tries to prove himself, he keeps making it worse and his ego is really starting to show
so you are voting for trump...
got it...
@@julesbower762and I see you drank the kool-aid! Do you even wonder or care who is actually running/ruining OUR country?
Imagine trying to get him out of the Whitehouse after he loses! You talk about a temper tantrum! 🤣🤣🤣
@@julesbower762 One doesn't have to be a Trump supporter to see that Biden has become particularly incompetent and not viable as a candidate by this point. If I'm forced to choose between Biden and Trump, I'll personally still vote for Biden. But I know several people, mostly leftist, who have already decided they're not going to vote at all if Biden stays in the race. I would certainly like to see a better candidate in Biden's place that would brighten the chances of more people voting against Trump.
So sad. If you snow flakes cant handle biden just say it. Why step down? Theyre both 80. Removing competition is such a coward move.
Get your popcorn ready for corn pop!😂🥴
Big show
I think they all should resign
Better get it done before 8:00 pm
4pm
Someone, anyone, ask him exactly how he “beat Medicare.”
Liberal media are making excuses in advance. Oh, he’s had such a long week with this NATO conference, etc. etc. please.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see his health is declining and won't last!
The press and libs said otherwise and called you a conspiracy theorist for months.
Imagine voting for their god after they lied for so long
And trump is any better? I think not. I'll take a bit slow over a lot deranged any day of the week
The press conference is to announce we defeated Medicare
Well, if they time his amphetamine right this time, maybe he’ll get through it. In all seriousness, three years ago or so when he would stop on a word and then divert to another word constantly… It reminded me of my father who had primary aphasia and later developed frontal lobe, dementia, at this point I still see my father in Biden… It’s sad, but it is what it is. Also, I’ve noticed he’s not only getting lost, the beginning and ending of each word he pronounces gets muddled at times. To me this seems like a more recent development. he could speak an entire sentence that has 20 words and the 15 words in the middle all run together.
Will it be the same rules as the debate? No notes, no helping aides, etc?
Just hand signals
He had notes during the debate even though they said there were none, at one point they did a side camera angle and he was flipping the page on the pad
@@jaymortensen642 "While no props or pre-written notes will be allowed on the stage, candidates will be given a pen, a pad of paper and a bottle of water." - in case you missed it.
Joe's a "big boy"... let him wing it😂
@@porecemusnox8805 you might want to watch it a little closer
They’ll probably feed answers into his hearing aids.
So pathetic
I didn't work last time😂
Joe got confused trying to listen to his ear piece.
@@edpeterson2293 🤣🤣🤣 So true!
During the debate you could see Biden reading his answers, which make you wonder if they were using a polarized screen that only he could see with polarized contact lenses.
Got my popcorn ready to throw in the air!🎉
So CBS what are you finances look like? How are your rating? Have you degraded enough and twisted enough make a difference?
I retired at fifty I don’t understand why people want to work tell they die
Most don't have a choice. Count your blessings. I've wanted to retire since I was 9 years old, lol.
Lucky you! I agree, retire if you can as early as possible! George Clooney for President!
Nobody cares.
I'm 66 and semi-retired. you have to like what you do. been self employed
for 34 years. working PT now is fun and I still make enough to pay the bills.
Must be nice. Most dont have the option unless they want to be homeless.
Unscripted? That sounds like a recipe for disaster. I hope he doesn’t have to walk to his seat or podium, there’s a high chance he could fall. I can’t imagine how much his team is freaking out right now about this conference, there’s so much that could go wrong
He's Just as sharp and smart as he's been the last 30 years, why cry now. Career corrupt useless politician.
I can’t agree with you more! He and Obama started destroying USA the most! He messed up even men and women’s definition,
Please tell me how he's corrupt. I'll wait...

This situation makes me so sad I remember watching my father who was the oldest active firefighter in the state of Indiana at the age of 77 when he finally retired within 10 years my dad went from a strong independent intelligent man to someone who could not feed themselves. None of this had anything to do with the person that he was or the life that he lived it has to do with he had a horrible disease called dementia. He didn't realize when he started getting bad but those around him did. It was heartbreaking watching him struggle trying to do the simplest things that he always used to be able to do with no trouble. This has nothing to do with Biden the man this has to do with the fact that as we age our health deteriorates and unfortunately that's the situation he finds himself. He was a great man he still is a great man but that does not mean he is still physically and mentally able to handle this job.
@@amyhoerner8054 I empathise and know just what you went through because with my dad, it started as vascular dementia at 58 succumbing at 71. Aging and diseases are progressive and inevitable. He did his bit now let him rest.
Biden knows he is getting older going to rest at 4pm but won't resign because the democrat party participated in the cover up about his dementia and now nothing the party can do in such short time to the election dare Nov.5
I couldn't agree more. I do not support President Biden but I also do not support elder abuse or stripping an elder of their dignity to further a political agenda. What have we become?
@@mtdewkid1963 I ask myself what Have We Become at least once a day. It truly boggles my mind that we live in America a country that is supposed to be one of the greatest countries in the world and the best we can do to run our country is a man with dementia and a convicted felon
Biden is not a great man. He was a perennial Democrat also-ran for decades; until the party degenerated to the point that he looked better than the other candidates.
This guy is toast. no way this guy makes it another 4 years, probably not the next 4 month. He has already lost this election.
I'd agree if trump wasn't his opponent, he's the only one Biden can beat
So basically, it's Biden Vs Everyone
Media have betrayed the big guy. Glad that he can always count on his old pal Corn Pop having his back.
Their next move will be medical, seems like too much stress may take him out , quietly. Their weekend at Bernie's skit is getting old
So it's at 12pm?
What my doing here 😂😂😂
Has to be between 10am and 4pm when he's lucid. Past that and his Sundowners kicks in
No... thats lunchable and pudding time... 1pm works better.
Is this the big boy conference john kirby was talking about😆
why are all the liberal news robots calling this a "solo" press conference?
People knew he was old when they voted for him. People knew he was old when they sent him Record breaking donations.
It's not about his age , it's about his mental decline and how the media covered for him for years.... also the media's pretense at discovering what they knew all along....and yet while accusing others of spreading misinformation , they were doing it themselves all the time...In just 90 minutes the debate revealed that to millions around the world....as the saying goes....'whatever is in the dark"......😂

He has dementia. That's been obvious since 2019.

@@Kinesiology411 That is a false statement both from a biological and social standpoint - if in doubt, ask your pyhsician or insurance companies. ;)
Giving him increased daily doses of go-fasters inevitably cause crashes in the early evening.
Note : the press conference today is scheduuled for late afternoon.. 👀
Stolen selections have consequences
Once it’s out in the public (when they start speaking about it publicly), the decision has already been made.
You know this round, no one is going to fess up to receiving the questions to ask ahead of time
He'll blow it. "It says here I'm supposed to call on _______ from The Associated Press."
“Major” press conference huh? (Or the now daily, “look, I completed a full sentence” puppet show?)
I really missed these between 2016 and 2020 ... .
I guarantee you he’s getting the questions in advance.
What time is this happening?

Welch is half a thousand tell him to sit down. Clooney needs to sit down.
The people that want President Biden to step aside; want the trumpet as our next president! 😢
He's going to resign like Nixon
She says that Biden will very much try to keep the focus of the press conference on the NATO conference… That’s because he doesn’t want any questions out of left field that he hasn’t practiced for😅😅😅
Who is calling for him to step aside? The American people vote in primaries for the top of the ticket. The primary’s are over. Biden can’t step aside now. If he is “replaced” the American people should feel outraged! It would be Unprecedented and an unacceptable precedent to set moving forward to replace without the people’s vote a political nominee 4 months before an election.
Biden won't resign but has no chance of winning in Nov.5
The precedents the left has made since Obama will come to bite them every time. Project 2025 is nothing more than following the leftist playbook.

There were no democrat primaries. Americans didn’t get the chance to pick someone besides Biden
He has always had a problem with off-the-cuff questions which is why his handlers always usher him out. This indeed will be interesting Still… It’s the same sort of concessions you make when talking about a toddler.
If a toddler mispronounces a word, you chuckle and say it’s cute.
The toddler uses a cup without a sippy lid, you say what a major achievement. So if Biden can take questions and give unscripted answers… This is a major achievement? What’s the concession here?
What makes that a major achievement? What makes that a test of presidential fitness
Trump for 2024. We need the world to see strong leadership.
Yah he's 2 years younger and the word salad he often spews is no better. They are BOTH too old
A 'big boy' conference 😂😂
Today's "Big Boy" press conference will be the next big test of his cognitive ability. His handlers have been doing their best to minimize his exposure to open question press conferences during his term. We may find out why if they let him face the same pressure that White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faces in front of reporters.
The primary is over.....switching now wouldnbe shady AF
One moment of strong performance amidst countless poor performances and obvious evidence of mental decline since 2020 does not mean he is fit.
There is no controversy...
Corn Pop was bad dude. Fact.
Pitiful 😢
This is the "BiG BoY " press conference 😂
Elder abuse.
Hey, if they're not spending the minimal on their own defense, they shouldn't expect America to come to their rescue.
The issue isn't whether he can answer some questions for a short amount of time. He's NOT going to assuage any doubts with this press conference. The damage to his campaign has been done. There's no coming back from this one. He needs to drop out.
It’s too late to step down. The election is in 4 months! That’s a sure fire way to make sure trump wins if Biden were to step down and that won’t happen. Get through this election and give us 2 better quality candidates ( because rly they are both way too old ) for the next election.
If Trump wins there won’t be another election
It's a damn shame how some of the democrats are spineless, all of this due to a debate , so a debate doesn't reflect an outcome. Trump supporters know he lies but do you think they are asking him to step down, and we're at a point of not starting over
Big boy meme event with the Big Guy. Be sure to watch before MSM edits.
Why does it matter what Clooney thinks? He’s an actor, what real experience does he have??
It's too late. We'd have to ignore the past year and possibly the past three years in order to think he's OK to move forward with his re-election. Sorry. He should retire and maybe get some dignity from his rabid supporters.
Funny that the congressman and senators calling for him to resign are the approximately the same age as Biden
I don't understand why he is having this press conference at the end of the day. Evenings are not the best time for octogenarians, even if they don't struggle with dementia.
And now lonely point to people that have been given questions that Biden has already have the answer you can guarantee there will be no random questions that he's not prepared for

Jimmy Carter was building homes in his nineties and honestly, we need to focus on criminal behavior from Trump than judging someone by their age. And besides, it's against the law to discriminate against someone by their age.
