If Biden is 5'11", that doctor walking next to him is about 5" even.
Emperors new clothes syndrome. He's 100 % firing on all cylinders. The Taiwanese will be reassured. Keep ducking 🙈
Great news.
You have my vote in 2024.
The narrative of the opposition is correct. We have heard the verbal gaffes. We have watched the Joe take questions from pre-selected, friendly news reporters. SOTUS is coming up in about 3 months. Watch for Joe to take 3 to 5 days off from his busy 3 hour work days to rest up for it. Question is can the doctor fill him with the right amount of drugs to keep him up and coherent for a 20 to 60 minute script reading. Like any other walk of life, doctors will lie.
JOE BLOOPER Biden mumbles ‘I’m gonna get in trouble’ in another confused rant as he’s accused of ‘embarrassing US on world stage’
913 your diapers are full. Change yourself.
Nobody believes that
name-calling is what you do about Biden et al
fact;, he is in public and speaking often and delivering both his message and his agenda. Now tell us what Trump did with his great health plan?where did it go? and, yes: his famous wall that Mexico will pay for.
compare now what Bidezn has done in one year with what Trump did in 4
Can't stand the truth can you?
Biden is fit and you with your medical background will tell us otherwise because you ran a battery of tests personally.
What's your medical background to declare him "fit". Please tell us, oh by the way you fool none!
Let me examine the old man please. Trust me, I'm a Doctor.
