"Biden's Age Problem: Demands for Better Defense and Presidential Image"

The New York Times editorial board criticized President Biden's response to concerns about his memory and fitness for office, stating that his assurances during a press conference raised more questions and eroded public confidence. The board advised Biden to "do better" in convincing the American people that he's up to the job, especially with the potential reemergence of former President Trump. It recommended unscripted interactions, town hall meetings, and regular news conferences to demonstrate his capability. The editorial concluded with a pessimistic assessment of the Biden administration's current state and the need for Biden to show the public that he is fully capable of holding office.
