Chaos swirled up by Biden’s debate stumble causes cracks in White House

The Hindu  

The pressure and chaos swirling since U.S. President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance is causing cracks in the White House that until now had been marked by discipline and loyalty. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre reflected on Tuesday on the extraordinary moment for the President and his team, as questions about the 81-year-old’s age and mental capacity threaten to torpedo his re-election dreams. “We are meeting a new moment that has never really existed before.” Public blame game Mr. Biden’s shaky June 27 debate performance has led to an unusually public blame game, leaks of private phone calls between the President and Democrats and questions about his son Hunter Biden’s presence at the White House. It has prompted current White House officials to anonymously vent their concerns about the President’s ability to do the job and even led to the departure of a radio journalist after details emerged that the Biden campaign had fed her and another pressperson interview questions.
