Byron York: Joe Biden's decline: The inside story and the outside story "We've gotten a new tidbit of information about efforts by the Biden White House and some in the press to cover up President Joe Biden's age-related infirmity. It comes from a new book, 2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America, by reporters Tyler Pager, Josh Dawsey, and Isaac Arnsdorf of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post, respectively.
"The authors report that "top White House aides debated having [Biden] undergo a cognitive test to prove his fitness for a second term but ultimately decided against the move," according to a report on the book in the New York Times.
"The revelation is the latest in a series of news nuggets about the 82-year-old Biden's senescence, stories like White House aides putting tape on the floor so that Biden wouldn't wander off course, that have been included in new books about the 2024 election. More is promised in yet another book to be published later this month. But the fact is, you already knew about Biden's cognitive decline because you saw it with your own eyes.
"There is an inside story of Biden's decline and an outside story of Biden's decline. The inside story is the effort by the White House staff, plus its Democratic allies, plus its supporters in the press, to conceal Biden's problem. The outside story is the many public appearances — moments of Biden appearing confused, lost, or frozen — during which millions of viewers could see for themselves that the president had a serious problem." . . .
“There is nothing worse than a politician down in the polls using fear as a mechanism to drive voters to the polls,” Mr Houghton said." . . .
. . ."US President Joe Biden’s address to the nation on the American soul was the most “divisive, hate-filled and fallacious” speech, says Sky News host Rita Panahi.
"Ms Panahi said the President’s “hate speech” delivered at Independence Hall in Philadelphia today perfectly “matched the dystopian aesthetic”.
"“Far from unifying the country, the President is keen to paint half of America as filled with extremists who want to destroy democracy,” she said.
“And of course, no Biden speech is complete without the leader of the free world looking a little dazed and confused.
“But I want to say, I prefer the incomprehensible gibberish we often get from Joe Biden compared to the dangerous, divisive diatribe we got today." . . .
