Joe Biden’s in the throes of dementia and it’s clear he’s not calling the shots. From Alex Berenson at alexberenson.substack.com:
I know some of you think yesterday’s devastating report is part of a canny Democratic plot to make him step down before the 2024 election. I don’t. I think he’s in trouble. And so are the Democrats.
We’ve all seen it. Maybe with a parent. Or grandparent. Even a spouse, for the unluckiest of us.
The slips are minor at first. The name of a friend forgotten, a birthday missed. An unsteady step. Then the problems become bigger and harder to miss. Memory gaps turn into sinkholes, missed steps into falls.
Eventually, the painful reality must be faced: Alzheimer’s, dementia, senility. By whatever name, the affliction is the wastage of time, progressive and devastating.
But if we – the onlookers, the outsiders – can hardly accept the slow erasure of memory and self, freedom and personhood, how difficult must it be for the sufferer?
Especially if that sufferer has spent his life in a race to become the world’s most powerful person – and has finally reached his goal. Only to have a federal prosecutor label him, in words that will haunt him and the country for as long as he is president, a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
The harder Joe Biden and his allies deny Robert Hur’s words, the harder they stick.
I’m not a doctor (though I am sometimes accused to pretending to be one). I wouldn’t presume to diagnose Biden. But I know this. We all know this. He is not well. He is 81, and not a young 81, whatever that means. In 2022, he fell off a bike; do you remember more casual Biden bike rides since? I don’t. Try to imagine him skiing. Or golfing.
Try to imagine him walking more than a few hundred feet.
Biden wanders as often as he walks. He shakes hands with the air. His voice is reedy and slow. He has trouble finding words. On Sunday, he reminisced about a meeting he’d had recently with Francois Mitterrand, the French president. Mitterrand has been dead since 1996.
AB may have been the one saying that Mau Mau Barry has pulled the rug out from under Brandon.
The One! (umm…umm…umm) is loving the turd term as Brandon the dumb old white guy gets the blame for the fundamental Weimarbabwe transformation.
All great nations and empires are destroyed from within and FUSA is no exception.
Si se puede!
