Biden’s Age Is Not the Problem Here!
We’ve all long known the real issue: his steady cognitive decline.

Much has been written about the remarkably large percentage of Americans who don’t want President Joe Biden to run for a second term. Most of the commentariat, however, tiptoes around the obvious reason they want him to retire after one term. When they can’t avoid discussing Biden’s bizarre behavior and weird maundering, most pundits hide behind vague allusions to his age, but the public has long known that the real problem is his steady cognitive decline.
As far back as November of 2021, a Politico/Morning Consult poll found that only 46 percent of voters agreed with the following statement: “Joe Biden is mentally fit.” In an ABC News/Washington Post survey conducted in February of 2022, a mere 40 percent of respondents said he possesses the “mental sharpness it takes to serve effectively as president.” Last month, the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll found that only 44 percent of registered voters said Biden is “mentally fit to serve as President of the United States.”
He provided fresh evidence last Thursday at a White House event where a child asked him, “What was the last country you traveled to?” Biden scratched his head and stammered until another youngster gave him his cue: “Ireland!” Biden smiled and the parents laughed, but not everyone finds such episodes amusing. Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) served as White House physician to Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump and wants Biden to take a cognitive exam. Fox News has a copy of the letter he is circulating for signatures. Here’s the key passage:
[T]he American people deserve complete transparency on the mental capabilities of their highest elected leader. Moreover, the United States’ national security relies on a cognitively sound Commander in Chief, and it is evident that you do not fit that bill. Therefore, we call on you to either resign immediately and renounce your bid for reelection or submit to a clinically validated cognitive screening assessment and make those results available to the public.more
