Biden Says Press Has ‘Been Hammering’ Him Since Debate: ‘I Make a Lot of Mistakes’Elizabeth Weibel 12 Jul 2024
President Joe Biden claimed during a rally in Detroit, Michigan, on Friday that the news media has “been hammering” him since his performance at the presidential debate weeks ago.
While speaking to a crowd at Renaissance High School, Biden said he “sometimes” mixes up the names of people. Biden’s comments come a day after he held a solo press conference where he mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as former President Donald Trump and mistakenly introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“You may have noticed since the debate, the press, and they’re good guys and women up there, they’ve been hammering me,” Biden said as the crowd began to boo. “I make a lot of mistakes.”
“They’ve been hammering me because I sometimes confuse names,” Biden added. “I say, ‘That’s Charlie’ instead of ‘Bill.’ Well, guess what? Donald Trump has gotten a free pass.”
