President Joe Biden's news conference on Thursday was deemed a success by White House officials, who praised his handling of a wide range of domestic and foreign policy questions. Biden showcased a strong understanding of both domestic issues and international affairs, according to a senior White House official.
During the news conference, Biden addressed complex foreign policy matters with skill, leaving a Biden campaign official impressed. The official expressed regret that Biden's performance at the recent debate did not match the level of expertise displayed at the news conference.
Despite the positive reception of Biden's news conference, there are concerns within the president's re-election team. Some officials involved in the campaign are privately acknowledging doubts about Biden's chances of winning a second term. There is a growing sentiment among these officials that Biden may not have a viable path to victory, leading to discussions about the possibility of the president stepping back from his re-election bid.
