  • Considering the parlous state of Biden's re-election bid and simmering Democrat rebellion against his candidacy, the presser could be the most consequential of his recent political career.
  • Biden will be faced with intense press scrutiny and be working off-script and off-telepromter for the first time since his disastrous performance in the first presidential debate upended the election cycle.
  • As the Democratic Party intends to hold a roll call to formally anoint the presidential nominee before the convention in August formally (July 21-25 has been floated), and Congress will be out of session during the intervening period, today's presser might be the last major hurdle for Biden clear and one of the last opportunities for lawmakers to hammer out a Plan B.
