Allies of President Joe Biden are eagerly anticipating his upcoming news conference on Thursday as an opportunity to address concerns raised by some calling for him to step aside.
Despite this optimism, two House Democrats, Reps. Seth Moulton and Mike Quigley, who have been vocal about their belief that Biden should resign, remain steadfast in their stance.
Moulton expressed skepticism about the potential impact of the press conference, stating, 'I obviously hope the president does well at the press conference but you can’t ask Americans to unsee what they saw with their own eyes.'
Quigley echoed Moulton's sentiments, suggesting that the situation may not be salvageable, remarking that 'the cake is baked' and warning that the news conference could exacerbate the existing challenges.
Furthermore, Quigley hinted at the possibility of additional Democratic colleagues joining the call for Biden's resignation after the conclusion of the NATO summit, indicating that more voices may be raised against the president in the near future.
As the anticipation builds for President Biden's news conference, the divide within the Democratic Party regarding his leadership continues to deepen, with some members remaining resolute in their demand for change.
