Western Diplomats Express Doubts As Media Praises Biden’s ‘Comeback’

The mainstream media’s praise for President Joe Biden has raised eyebrows, especially among Western diplomats who remain skeptical. Despite the press’s portrayal of a “comeback,” Biden’s recent public appearances have left some European leaders concerned.

For a brief period, the media was candid about Biden’s health issues, but this changed after his recent press conference. Although Biden struggled and even confused Kamala Harris with Donald Trump, the media quickly shifted to defending his capability. This has led to a disconnect between the media’s narrative and the reality observed by international diplomats.

European diplomats have reportedly started reaching out to Donald Trump, anticipating a potential shift in U.S. leadership. During a NATO summit press conference, Biden mistakenly referred to Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as “President Putin,” causing visible discomfort among European leaders. One diplomat described the reaction as “OMFG.”

Despite public support for Biden, behind the scenes, European diplomats are preparing for a possible Trump administration. They have been meeting with Trump’s allies and establishing connections, reflecting their lack of confidence in Biden’s re-election prospects.

The divergence between media reports and the views of those closely watching U.S. politics highlights the growing skepticism about Biden’s leadership. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen whether Biden can overcome these doubts or if the diplomats’ concerns will prove justified.
