Breitbart reports: The president appeared aware of recent polling showing his approval ratings at record lows but expressed disbelief that his approval was low even among independents.
“I don’t believe the polls,” he said shortly.
Biden appeared to relish the length of his 112-minute press conference, telling reporters he was considering staying for as long as three hours.
“You mean, I can still stand? It’s amazing,” he said wryly when reporters thanked him for taking their questions. “I can do pushups.”
But his answers to questions from reporters grew longer and more meandering as the press conference continued.
Biden indicated he would shift his communications strategy in the coming months, and get out of the White House to talk more with the American people.
“I’m going to get out of this place more often,” he said. “I’m going to go out and talk to the public. I’m going to do public fora. I’m going to interface with them.”
