'Going to get worse': Ex-WH doctor warns pace of Biden's cognitive decline already putting US 'at great risk'
Fox News ^ | 11/26/23 | Taylor Penley

Posted on 11/26/2023 3:38:22 PM PST by Libloather

resident Biden's 81st birthday ushered in even more conversations surrounding his age and declining cognitive acuity, two things Texas Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson, a former White House physician, believes are valid causes for concern.

"[The decline is] happening quickly," Jackson told "Sunday Morning Futures" guest anchor Sean Duffy.

"Like you said, I've taken care of three presidents… so I know firsthand what it takes to be the commander-in-chief and the head of state. It's a grueling job, both mentally and physically. This man can't do the job. He's proven to us every single day that he can't do the job, but this is going to get worse."

Jackson served as a physician under the Bush, Obama and Trump administrations and has previously sounded the alarm over Biden's cognitive acuity, even demanding he take a cognitive test or drop out of the 2024 race.

Jackson said the decline has been evident for some time, looking back on Biden as a candidate before his 2020 match-up against then-president and current Republican frontrunner Donald Trump, whom Jackson has endorsed for their 2024 rematch.

"It's just unbelievable how much he's degenerated just during his time in office. We cannot afford to have this man in office for the remainder of this term and then [for] another four years after that. He's already putting us at great risk right now," he said.

Meanwhile, young voters lament the president is "out of touch" with everyone as his support among Gen Z voters – a crucial demographic for Democrats – erodes in recent polls.

One recent NBC News poll, for instance, indicated that Trump leads Biden by four percentage points among registered voters between the ages of 18 to 34.

My progressive son likes what whoever is running the WH is doing, and will vote for Biden again, regardless.

I, for one, am in favor of trotting this demented clown out and about at every opportunity until he publicly melts down in a racist, expletive-laden tirade, right before he falls over and soils himself.

That’s must-see tv!

ugh. That has to sting. I hope my kid gets out of college without going prog. So far, so good. He got an internship with a conservative and he is loving it. Hope that will work out.

Dementia runs 3-5 years before cognition is completely gone.

No guarantee, but I started up armoring my boys around age 4, and both still see through the BS now that they’re young adults

It is horrible watching a parent fall ever deeper into dementia. Physically. My mother and father in law are healthy.
But mentally, there is nobody home upstairs.

Joey has been a loud mouth stupid arrogant bastard his entire adult life. I for one also want to see him trotted out in public. The Dems foisted this demented POS on us so they should be made to see Joey be Joey on a daily basis.

FJB. Let’s Go Brandon!!!

I know, it’s horrible. But it sure is fun watching this treasonous bastard lose it on stage.

God help your wife and you. We went through the whole course with my mother in law she passed about a year ago. It is a truly horrible thing.

The Obama Junta which actually runs the country, does NOT want a president who can think for himself. They got a puppet that reads from the script. That's exactly what they wanted. Obama and his cabal run the country.

> My progressive son likes what whoever is running the WH is doing… <

Not that you asked, but I suggest that you work hard to separate politics from family. Better yet, bury politics when you’re around family. Your son can’t see the facts. But one day he might. So don’t burn any bridges.

I have some experience in this regard. A good 1/4 of my extended family are blue dog Democrats. They are all good people. Fine people. But they are blind. They still think the Democrat Party is the party of Truman and JFK. You can no more convince them otherwise than you could convince a Catholic cardinal to become a Buddhist.

At a typical family gathering:

Blue dog Democrat uncle: Biden is doing all he can to help working people.
Me: I’ve got a small leak in my roof. It’s driving me crazy.
Blue dog Democrat uncle: I’ll be over tomorrow to take a look. It just might be a bad shingle.

So now we’re talking about roofs instead of about Biden.

Yep...DNC/Obama Cartel had Newsom planned out when Biden took office.

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with that.

My dad started losing his cognitive abilities in his early to mid-80s. Sometimes he didn’t recognize my siblings or me.

I miss him, but it was also a relief when he went to be with the Lord and with our mom who he missed terribly ever since she passed from an illness at age 52.
