Joe Biden has insisted he won't quit the US presidential race despite calling Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy 'President Putin', in yet another in a series of blunders that has led critics to question his suitability for the top job. The US president said that if he slowed down and "can't get the job done", that would show he was unfit. "But there’s no indication of that yet," he told reporters.
A reporter asked: "What concerns do you have of Vice President Harris’s ability to beat Donald Trump if she were at the top of the ticket?To which, Mr Biden replied: “Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President if I didn’t think she was qualified to be President so let’s start there.”The President also swerved further questions from the press on his abilities to serve another four years in office.
