The Political Insider

In the latest example of Joe Biden’s mental abilities being called into question, a video is going viral in which the former vice president can’t even bring himself to say the words “America First.”

“This guy’s whole idea of America— America on its own has meant America alone,” Biden said, referring to Donald Trump. “We’re out there by ourselves.”

Biden previously tried to attack President Trump for his “America First” mantra back in April, but it didn’t go so well for him back then either.

“If, in fact, for example, we solve the problem in the United States of America and you don’t solve it in other parts of the world, you know what’s going to happen,” Biden said at the time.

“You’re going to have travel bans, you’re going to not be able to do— have economic intercourse around the world,” he continued. “Look, when America goes alone— when America is first, it’s America alone. And the idea that we’re stepping back from the world leadership that we in fact engaged in during the virus and the pandemics in the past, it is leaving it leaderless as a matter of fact.”

These clips raise even more questions about Biden’s cognitive capacity at a time when that is the last thing that he needs. Just last week, he was asked if he’d been tested “for some degree of cognitive decline,” and his answer was just the kind of nonsense that we’ve come to expect from Biden.

“I’ve been tested and I’m constantly tested,” Biden responded. “All you’ve got to do is watch me, and I can hardly wait to compare my cognitive capability to the cognitive capability of the man I’m running against.” Well, we’re watching you, Mr. Biden, and we’re sure not liking what we’re seeing.

During an interview last week, former White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson called this latest claim by Biden into question.

“I think that he’s old enough now that he’s having cognitive difficulties and that just happens. It’s part of growing old,” Jackson said. “If [Trump] goes head-to-head with Joe Biden cognitively, there just wouldn’t be much of a comparison. It would be very one-sided.”

I think that anyone who has watched Biden recently would find this hard to disagree with.
