Jesus Christ, there’s really no worse speech-gaffe he could make.
I think that’s a fair assessment.For a gentleman well into his 80's, under immense scrutiny and with the eyes of the world on him, I have to say, this impressive.
However, for the POTUS, this is woefully short of the authority, clarity of thought and core communication skills required.

For those that fell asleep
I don’t think Zelenskyy cares what he’s called, as long as he’s promised another kazillion dollars.O.M.G.
Biden: “ I now hand you over to the President of Ukraine, President Putin”
After being prompted by aides, he says “I mean President Zelenskyy “
There is no fcuking way he will survive a gaffe like that, Trump will rip him to shreds as will the press. This is a man with his hands on the nuclear football. “Ooops, I meant fire at Russia not France”
Biden’s unscripted prezza begins in about an hour. The general unwritten rule in politics is that when the politician becomes the story rather than the issues, then it’s game up and time to exit stage left.
I can’t fathom why Biden can’t or won’t accept this. He’s finished.
People have suggested she should be the one telling him to step down... but what if she is the one that's encouraging him to stand again ?Jesus H. This is nuts.
The jig is up, no rational or sane person could surely claim that this person is fit for anything other than a nice late-retirement, some warm sunshine and a comfy bed.
Jill Biden has a lot to answer for too, imo.
Quite. Zelenskyy will just shrug it off - he "needs ammo not a ride". He'll not care about stumbled words.I don’t think Zelenskyy cares what he’s called, as long as he’s promised another kazillion dollars.
From the various clips I’ve seen, and analysis watched, it does seem (to me) that she’s been firmly encouraging him.People have suggested she should be the one telling him to step down... but what if she is the one that's encouraging him to stand again ?

you're spoiling it for everyoneThe 2024 thread was not on the NSC front page. I did look for one, even using the search function, but what came up was the old one. So I used that rather than make a new one.
It is in the gift of moderators to merge my needless thread with the existent 2024 one (that I could not fine). Instead I was moaned at for using the 2020 thread (implying I should create a new one, which I did) <sigh>
I am please a moderator has finally merged the two 2024 threads.

Could re-do with with 'Nuke' 'Stormy'
Should the current President of the US, let alone one who is running to serve for another 4 years, be making gaffes like that?
