President Biden held a rare news conference before leaving Japan, and despite his advisers\u2019 obvious strategy of largely shielding him from the media, he basically did fine.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Most of the questions were about the debt-ceiling showdown that prompted him to leave the G-7 gathering early, and Biden threw a hard punch.<\/a> He said some MAGA Republicans would welcome a government default “because I am president, and presidents are responsible for everything, Biden would take the blame. And that\u2019s the one way to make sure Biden\u2019s not reelected.”<\/p>\n

Whether that\u2019s a smart strategy, as he\u2019s trying to hammer out a compromise with Kevin McCarthy, is debatable. What\u2019s not up for debate is that people got to watch their president take questions and appear knowledgeable about the issues, including at a separate appearance with Volodymyr Zelenskyy.<\/a><\/p>\n

Biden sometimes stumbles through these Q-and-A sessions \u2013 even then they\u2019re worth doing \u2013 and there\u2019s often a sense of anticipation: Is he going to botch someone\u2019s name, have a memory lapse or say something that has to be walked back?<\/p>\n

In other words, will he act like an 80-year-old president?<\/p>\n

While he seems like a lock for the Democratic nomination, there\u2019s growing concern from liberals that Biden\u2019s mental acuity, or physical stamina, might worsen.<\/p>\n

And hovering over the 2024 landscape is, in their view, the dark prospect of\u00a0a second Trump presidency.<\/p>\n

One longtime voice on the left is that of Ruy Teixeira, who\u2019s been a truth-telling analyst and writer for decades. While he\u2019s a senior fellow at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute, he\u2019s also the co-founder of the Liberal Patriot blog.<\/p>\n

And Teixeira sees Biden as “an extraordinarily weak candidate,” stuck polling in the low 40s and not likely to move up much.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Democrats are underestimating<\/a> the former president: “There\u2019s no question that Trump has a lot of baggage, including his incessant dwelling on the \u2018stolen\u2019 2020 election, that should weaken him as an opponent.” But with Trump a point ahead in the Real Clear Politics average, he writes: “Yes, it is early but these results are not nothing.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Given that Trump is under indictment, under investigation for Jan. 6 and other issues, and just lost a sexual assault suit, shouldn\u2019t Biden have a healthy lead? <\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, Teixeira says, Biden and the Democrats haven\u2019t drawn any line “against the cultural extremists in their own party.” The growing backlash on crime, illegal immigration and teaching sexual material in school, among other things, will be a drag on the Biden candidacy.<\/a><\/p>\n

The president isn\u2019t exactly Bernie Sanders,<\/a> but if he had started trying to ease the border crisis two years ago rather than waiting for Title 42 to expire \u2013 and his plan has eased migrant crossings in the short term \u2013 he\u2019d be much better off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From the right,\u00a0National Review Editor Rich Lowry<\/a> says Biden is one step away from electoral disaster.<\/p>\n

I have to argue with Lowry from the start, because he used a meaningless half-stumble by Biden as a metaphor. The president lost his balance coming down stairs in Japan for a split-second, righted himself with the next step \u2013 something we\u2019ve all done without a second thought.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s hard to argue with the next part:\u00a0<\/p>\n

“If Biden were to do a face-plant, even down a few steps, it could be very ugly. Fairly or not, it\u2019d be a symbol of U.S. decrepitude. It\u2019s one thing to have a senior senator from California<\/a> who obviously should have hung it up several years ago; it\u2019s another to have a president of the United States lacking the agility to get around easily anymore.”<\/p>\n

With Mitch McConnell<\/a> having recently suffered a concussion and broken rib from a fall, “Biden could take a wrong step at any time, and there\u2019s no guarantee that it would happen on a convenient timetable for Democrats, when, say, they could still go in another direction. In fact, it could happen on a catastrophic timetable \u2014 if something happened to Biden in late October 2024, it could easily throw a close race to his Republican opponent, including Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019d be likelier to make him look foolhardy for having taken on, once again, at age 80 or 81, the physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing enterprise of a national campaign, rather than like the victim of circumstances out of his control.” And it would make Biden, not Trump, the issue.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

So things are looking grim for the president if he\u2019s one banana peel away from disaster, right?<\/p>\n

AI DEMONSTRATES HUMAN-LIKE THINKING, AND EVEN ITS CREATORS ARE WORRIED<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Well, stop hyperventilating if you want Biden to win. We\u2019ve got a focus group coming to the rescue.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With a mixed group from Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin, the\u00a0Washington Post<\/a> found no particular enthusiasm for the president, with most of the 15 participants describing negative emotions when they saw Biden: \u2018confused,\u2019 \u2018concern,\u2019 \u2018worry,\u2019 \u2018sad,\u2019 \u2018sorry\u2019 and even \u2018panicked.\u2019”<\/p>\n

It gets worse, with several offering “dire assessments of Biden\u2019s mental and physical capacities, calling him too old or speculating about the possibility of dementia.”<\/p>\n

But 9 of the 15 in the group said they would vote for Biden.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The reason? “In both focus groups\u00a0and polling, concerns about another Trump presidency are even greater, leaving Biden in a much better position if the two men meet in a rematch.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Moderator Rich Thau told the paper that “deciding between Trump and Biden is like being forced to choose either a demolition derby<\/a> car or an old clunker for a cross-country trip. With either choice, they are not particularly happy.”<\/p>\n

Yup, this is hardly inspiring. Most people don\u2019t want either president to run again, and will likely be depressed if that happens, with a certain percentage staying home.<\/p>\n

But we can\u2019t predict an election outcome by relying on 15 strangers. A different group might say different things a month from now or a year from now.<\/p>\n

So the race could come down to each man\u2019s Kryptonite \u2014 Biden\u2019s advanced age versus Trump\u2019s history of investigations and accusations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
