President Joe Biden defended his fitness for office during a high-stakes press conference Thursday despite two significant gaffes: calling Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky "President Putin," and his Vice President Kamala Harris "Vice President Trump." This comes as a growing number of Democrats call him to end his re-election bid and step aside.
Biden, the 81-year-old president under pressure over concerns about his mental fitness, maintained his confidence in his candidacy during the nearly hour-long press conference with reporters. However, early in the press conference, he made a huge blunder, accidentally referring to Vice President Kamala Harris by the wrong name.
