President Biden's highly anticipated solo press conference Thursday evening was panned as a "disaster" on social media by conservatives, who criticized the president for a performance that they said featured Biden stumbling through answers to reporters' questions about foreign policy and the 2024 presidential race.

"This NATO press conference with Biden is another disaster. It is inexplicable the people advising this man continue to think that somehow he's not going to humiliate himself and this country. Why do they continue to allow this to happen?" Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce posted on X during the press conference. 

Biden joined the media Thursday afternoon while wrapping up a NATO summit in the nation's capital, where the president made a series of gaffes, including confusing Vice President Kamala Harris with former President Donald Trump, trailing off while answering a question, and announcing to the room that he had a list of reporters he would call on.
