Politico Hints That President Biden Is 'Forgetful"


Politico:
Writing a speech for Biden can be hell. And that was before the inaugural. 

There is a heightened urgency to Biden's inaugural speech, as he confronts multiple crises and seeks to bridge a deep political divide. 

Joe Biden paces as he dictates long portions of his speeches to aides, spinning out thoughts that quickly pile into six, seven or eight paragraphs of copy, only to later be scrapped. 

On the 2020 campaign trail, he’d keep groups of supporters waiting inside while he’d hole up in a black car with aides, refining lines of his prepared remarks. 

Revisions go up to crunch time; it isn’t uncommon for a staffer to be scurrying to the teleprompter with a flash drive just before an event is to begin. 

For higher-profile remarks, he’d obsessively rehearse portions until he committed them to memory. 

And at times through the various iterations of outlining remarks, Biden could grow downright ornery. 

“I would never say this,” Biden once snapped at an aide, aghast over the prepared remarks he was reviewing, according to a person in the room during a speech prep session last year. 

“Where did you get this from?’” The aide explained that Biden had just said it in a public speech a couple of weeks earlier.

WNU Editor: Wow! It looks like the speech writers are now leaking to the press what they are going through when it comes to writing a speech for President Biden. 

Long time readers of this blog know that I have been pointing out President Biden's mental decline since last year. I unfortunately have a lot of experience knowing the signs and symptoms of dementia, dealing first with my father who suffered from this when he had his stroke years ago, meeting and knowing people where my father was hospitalized who were suffering from dementia, and now with my mother. 

In the case of President Biden, one only has to look at the Vice-Presidential debate in 2012 between Biden and Ryan, and compare. Then Vice-President Biden was sharp, articulate, and totally dominated the debate (link here to the debate). Flash forward to yesterday's Covid-19 announcement by President Biden (link here), it was painful to watch seeing President Biden struggling after only 10 minutes.

The contrast in 8 years is incredible, but not surprising to those who have first hand experience in dealing with loved ones who have suffered and/or are suffering from this disease.

That didn't take long. Second full day of the Biden Occupancy and the needling criticisms are coming in. Article 25 coming around to bite the rear end of the Dems.

/unless this was their strategy to begin with.

Mind wasting diseases are fair game. They are.

Democrats went after Ronald Reagan with their claim that he had Alzheimers in office. They did.

Fewer than 3% of people live more than fourteen years

Reagan lived to 2004. That is almost 14.5 years past the end of his presidency. At 3% you have to reject the hypothesis that he had Alzheimers while president.

Leslie Stahl claimed he was under the weather in 1986. Like most people of stature in her guild, she is a doctrinaire, dogmatic Leftist. We have saw behind the curtain with her Trump interview. His biological and uber-liberal son said that he knew. It was very important information that he let us know in his 2011 book which published 7 years after his father's death.

Liberals have gone there.

Liberals have gone there and they will go there with Joe, but only after they get what they want.

What do they want?

They want Joe Biden's John Henry on their wish list. They want him to sign stacks and stacks of Executive Orders (EO's).

It is better for Old Joe to sign the EO's rather than Kamala. If an EO galvanizes opposition, they can blame Old Joe and the legacy media covers smartly for Kamala. She will have the power of incumbency in 2024 and as just mentioned she can sluff off all the bad policies/EO's on Joe.

So they will keep Slow Joe around for the 1st hundred days. Jill just might be able to christen her 3 or 4 month antiseptic remodel of "her" bathroom. Dr. Jill's shit doesn't stink.

You remember exactly what you had to say/do. Your purpose was a distraction comment to try to derail a comment thread. Got tired of the "kidd" persona?

6:59 IS REALLY MAD AT US! She will be a STASI informant unless we bow down and accept her take on things. Her skirt is aflutter!

"New research links certain medications to dementia risk. A new study raises the possibility that certain medications may contribute to the risk of developing dementia. The focus of this study was on medications with "anticholinergic" effects. These are drugs that block a chemical messenger called acetylcholine, which affects muscle activity."

I wonder if she (6:59) remembers drug tolerance is like a real thing?

I bought 10 cases of Jiffy Pop to get me through the first 100 days.

But I feel really bad about eating it, since with a stroke of the pen, Dementia Joe put 40,000+ people out of work in Canada and USA. Most of those were good paying union jobs.
