Is the press preparing for the exit of Joe Biden?

 Well it won't be his fanboy Joe Scarborough;  ‘The best Biden ever’ - Washington Examiner;   "On his MSNBC program Wednesday, former Republican Rep. Joe Scarborough launched an impassioned and aggressive defense of President Joe Biden — specifically, of Biden’s mental fitness to serve a second term as president. Scarborough’s performance was an attempt to show that the best defense is a good offense: In Scarborough’s view, the 81-year-old Biden is not only not declining cognitively, but he’s absolutely the best he’s ever been. And to majorities of voters, both Democrats and Republicans, who believe the president is not up to a second term, Scarborough had a simple message: “F*** you.' ” . . .

"In sum: "There’s one last possibility. Scarborough didn’t exactly say Biden
is super sharp. He said Biden is the best he, Biden, has ever been, intellectually and analytically. In light of that, remember the words of former Defense Secretary and CIA Director Robert Gates, who in 2014 wrote that Biden “
has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.” Certainly Biden’s handling of some of the key events of his presidency has done nothing to prove Gates wrong. In that sense, it might be fair to argue that Biden is as wrong as he has ever been. He could arguably be “the best Biden ever,” but that still wouldn’t be very good."

. . ."I think that's probably the main takeaway here. The White House has been trying to sell us on the idea that Biden is better off camera than on, but this story suggests that's not true. The overall picture is of an older man who has moments of lucidity during which he is like his old self and other moments where he seems to trail off, mumble, talk quietly and forget the details. In other words, the same stuff we've all seen him do when he speaks in public." . . .

None of this is rocket science, and while both parties are responsible for these circumstances to some extent, young people wanting to launch their careers and lives are undoubtedly beginning to long for the days when the economy was unmistakably stronger before the pandemic, and when a senile old man wasn’t telling them that all of their problems would be solved if he’s able to unconstitutionally take money from the plumbers and truck drivers among them to pay off a small portion of the loans taken out by the college students among them.

. . ."But when you read the interview, what you come away with is a president who’s in conversation with the walls, perhaps with his gruel. This president is no longer with us.

"That’s not just because he’s got all the wrong principles. It’s not just because he has effectively set America’s foreign policy on fire, while also lighting the jet fuel under the inflationary economy that Americans have been suffering through." . . .

'National security issue': Ex-WH doctor raises alarms on Biden's mental health after bombshell report | Fox News   "A former White House physician turned Republican lawmaker says President Biden's mental fitness is a matter of "national security."

"The article's just documenting what I've been saying all along: he's not fit to be the commander-in-chief," Rep. Ronny Jackson, R-Texas, told Fox News Digital on Wednesday. "He's got significant issues, he shouldn't have the job. You know, it's a national security issue for us."

"It comes after a bombshell report in The Wall Street Journal that cited interviews with 45 people over the course of several months, claiming that congressional leaders and others who have met with Biden have noticed he "appears slower now" and is "someone who has both good moments and bad ones." 

"Before being elected to Congress, Jackson served as the top White House physician to former Presidents Obama and Trump. He also served as chief medical adviser for the latter."
