While it's par for the course for current and former "Saturday Night Live" cast members to delve into politics through impressions or outright criticism, when Dana Carvey does it, you know you're in for a treat. In the July 5 episode of the "Superfly with Dana Carvey and David Spade"...

Was this ‘big boy’ press conference worse for Joe Biden than the debate against President Trump? When asked about Kamala Harris’ ability to take on Trump if she was the presidential candidate, Biden called her “Vice President Trump.” “I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president if I didn’t think she was qualified to be president,” Biden said.

From the New York Post: President Biden stunned journalists Thursday by confusing Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump at a closely watched press conference — shortly after he mixed up Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky at a different event. “Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president if I think she’s not qualified to be president,” the 81-year-old said to gasps and groans from journalists at the annual NATO summit. Biden spoke in a soft, raspy voice, frequently paused to cough, and at points lost his train of thought at what his aides had promoted as a “big boy press conference” at Washington’s Convention Center. The event had been called to dispel mounting Democratic clamor for Biden to step aside after a confused June 27 debate against Trump — but the commander-in-chief ended up compounding those concerns by making contradictory remarks, forgetting questions and giving rambling answers that didn’t directly address the subject he had been asked about. Trump, the 78-year-old presumptive Republican nominee, quickly ridiculed his successor in a statement on social media.

Biden smiled to himself and replied, “Listen to him,” before walking off stage. Thursday’s press conference was billed as the best opportunity for Biden to prove to Democrats that could handle tough questions and think on his feet in an unscripted environment. Pressure for Biden to drop out of the 2024 race has escalated for weeks, following his disastrous debate performance against Trump on June 27 and his campaign’s subsequent failure to assuage voters’ concerns about his health. It quickly became clear that Biden’s hourlong press conference did not put Democrats’ concerns to rest, however. Four minutes after he walked off stage, Rep. Jim Himes of Connecticut, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, released a statement calling on Biden to exit the race. Shortly afterwards, Rep. Scott Peters, D-Calif., did the same. “The stakes are high, and we are on a losing course,” Peters said in a statement. Watch the full press conference:

According to CNN, Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi have met privately to discuss their concerns about Joe Biden’s presidential campaign. They both reportedly expressed doubts that Biden can defeat Trump in the 2024 election. Also, they’re both stumped on what to do. “CNN spoke with more than a dozen members of Congress, operatives and multiple people in touch with both Obama and Pelosi, many of whom say that the end for Biden’s candidacy feels clear and at this point it’s just a matter of how it plays out, even after Thursday night’s news conference,” CNN stated.

And to a good chunk of them, that end can come if and when she tells Biden that he has to drop out. Pelosi has spoken to Biden since the debate, but in the time since, the California Democrat has made clear that she does not see Biden’s decision to stay in the race as final. But she, through an aide, declined to comment further. Obama’s decision not to make any public comment for two weeks has left a number of leading Democrats feeling like he has left them flailing by holding to the same posture that has largely defined his post-presidency. After the debate, he posted on X, “Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know,” reiterating that sentiment at a fundraiser in New York for House Democrats the night after Biden’s performance. The former president hadn’t even planned to make any public statement, but Biden and Obama aides coordinated to get that post out in a way that reflected Biden campaign talking points that Obama’s first reelection debate in 2012 went badly, too, and it didn’t end up ending his campaign. But Obama’s deepening skepticism about his friend’s ability to win reelection is one of the worst kept secrets in Washington.

[WATCH] Nancy Pelosi Asked If Joe Biden Has Her Support Biden's press conference on Thursday didn't help matters and intensified calls for him to step aside. In the presser, he introduced Volodymyr Zelensky as President Putin and referred to Kamala Harris as Vice President Trump. From the New York Post: Biden has rejected mounting calls for him to give up his candidacy in the wake of his train wreck first presidential debate against Trump on June 27. Those cries will likely only get louder following his error-laden “big boy” press conference Thursday night, which had only been called to try and dispel the Democratic clamor for Biden to step aside. “They are watching and waiting for President Biden to reach a decision on his own,” a longtime Democrat close to Obama, Pelosi and Biden told CNN. Meanwhile, other sources told Axios that high-powered Democrats — mostly veterans of the Obama and Clinton administrations — have been plotting on an hourly basis on how best to get Biden to drop out. The group, which the outlet dubbed the “unofficial Committee to Unelect the President,” have apparently been firing off a barrage of texts and emails, commissioning polls and organizing donors in a bid to get rid of him.
