Joe Biden's 'Big Boy' press conference blunders

everybody thank you please be seated I I directed the intelligence Community to be de a significant amount of intelligence be Declassified so I could start building an International Coalition to oppose the invasion Mr President your political Future Has hung over the NATO Summit a little bit this week speaker Pelosi made a point of suggesting that your decision on whether to stay in the race was still open George Clooney and a handful a handful of lawmakers have called on you to step aside Reuters is reporting tonight that UAW leadership is concerned about your ability to win you a just endorse me but go ahead thank you um my question for you is how are you incorporating these developments into your decision to stay and separately what concerns do you have about vice president Harris's ability to beat Donald Trump if she were at the top of the ticket look I wouldn't have picked vice president Trump to be vice president that I think she was not qualified to be president so let's start there number one the fact is that the consideration is that I think I'm the most qualified person to run for president I beat him once and I will beat him again secondly the idea I served in the Senate a long time the idea that senators and congressmen running for office worry about the ticket is Not Unusual and I might add there are at least five presidents running or incumbent presidents who had lower numbers than I have now think about where we are economically relative to the rest of the world name me a world leader who wouldn't want to trade places with our economy we created over 800,000 manufacturing jobs 1.5 million I mean so things are moving we got more to go Working Class People still have need help corporate greed is still at large there prices the corporate profits have doubled since the pandemic they're coming down and so I'm optimistic about where things are going I wanted to ask you um about your uh you mixed up uh presidents uh zalinsky and Putin earlier today um that um and you now have sort of your key allies including the British prime minister the president of France and the German Chancellor having to step in and make excuses for you on that um and officials here are saying off the Record that your decline has become noticeable hasn't this now frankly become damaging for America's standing in the world thank you did you see any damage to our standing by Leading this conference have you seen a more successful conference what do you think and the move the Putin pce I was talking about Putin and I said and now at the very end I said here I mean Putin I said no I'm sorry sininsky and then I add five other names look guys the idea anybody suggests that that we haven't had an incredibly successful conference how many times did you hear in that conference I don't know it sounds too self- serving but other leaders heads of state and thanking me saying the reason we're together is because of Biden because Biden did the following look folks this is a well anyway I uh I thought it was the most successful conference I've attend in a long time and find me a world leader who didn't think it was have you spent time thinking about what it would mean for your legacy which you've worked decades to build if you stay in the race despite the concerns that voters say they have and you lose to someone who you yourself have argued is unfit to return to the Oval Office well look I'm not in this for my legacy I'm in this to complete the job I started well guess what I've been the most pro-union labor president in history not a joke and guess what we had the treasury Department do a study when unions do better everybody does better everybody does better thank you Mr President presidency is the most straining job in the world and it's 24/7 how can you say you'll be up for that next year in 2 years in four years given the limits you've acknowledged that you have today the limits I've acknowledged I have there's been reporting that you've acknowledged that you need to go to bed earlier and you're evening around 8 that's not true look what I said was instead of my everyday day starting at 700 and going to bed at midnight it'd be smarter for me to pce myself a little more and I said for example the 876 stuff instead of starting a fundraiser at 9:00 start at 8:00 people get to go home by 10:00 that's what I'm talking about I'm not talking about and if you looked at my schedule since I've since I made that stupid mistake of in the campaign and in the debate I mean my schedule has been full boore I've done where's and where's Trump man riding around his golf cart filling out his scorecard before he hits the ball I mean look he's done virtually nothing and so our military is work I'm following the advice of my commander-in chief my my my of the chief of staff of the military as well as the Secretary of Defense and our intelligence people bad night Sir how can you reassure the American people that you won't have more bad nights whether they be on a debate stage or it's a matter of foreign policy well I tell you what um the best way to assure them is the way I assure myself and that is am I getting the job done am I getting the job done can you name me somebody who's got more major pieces of legislation passed in 3 and A2 years I got created 2,000 jobs just like last week so if I slow down I can't get the job done that's a sign that I shouldn't be doing it but there's no indication of that yet none um what we got here uh meric py radio
