'That Was A Complete Disaster' - Biden Snaps In Meeting Called To Reassure House Dems |
2024-07-15 |
[ZeroHedge] Embattled President Biden opened up a meeting with a group of Democratic US representatives by challenging them to ask him "hard questions" about his candidacy and his fitness to serve -- only to jump down the throat of a member who sought reassurance about the 81-year-old's ability to serve as a strong commander-in-chief. His loss of temper and ill-preparedness for the meeting reportedly did nothing to bolster his audience's confidence. That audience for the Saturday video conference call was the New Democrat Coalition, a group comprising some 100 centrist Democrats. While the group's chairwoman, New Hampshire Rep. Anne McLane Kuster, politely characterized the conversation as "candid, respectful and productive," members speaking to reporters anonymously were far less charitable about Biden's performance. "That was a complete disaster. We saw the same Joe Biden from the debate," one of the House reps on the roughly 30-minute, late-afternoon call told Axios. Another said the call was "awful," while a third said "members were not holding back." |
