Trump shares ruthless reel of Dems calling Biden ‘sharp’ after veteran journalist rips cover-up of ‘obvious cognitive decline’
New York Post ^ | Dec. 31, 2024 | Isabel Keane

President-elect Donald Trump has shared a ruthless highlight reel of Democrats repeatedly praising President Biden’s mental sharpness, releasing it soon after a veteran reporter blasted those who helped hide his “obvious cognitive decline.”

Trump shared the brutal supercut Monday, hours after CBS News reporter Jan Crawford ripped the media for helping to cover up the oldest-ever president’s decline until it was too obvious to ignore at the debate.

The nearly three-minute video — set to the goofy Wii theme music — started with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre appearing baffled that someone would even dare question Biden’s mental acuity.

It’s hardly a cover-up when most of us already knew it. That’s how dumb they think you are.

I had a cat that was sharper than Biden, he, mind you, on his own, figured out where the litter box was and how to use it. He was already one up on Biden.

It was only a cover up if the viewers were total dumbarses. My word how could anyone not possibly notice.

But in those fidiots defense, I guess they’ve never been around dementia before, but it’s so blatantly obvious... even at the beginning stages. Joey ain’t gonna know Joey in a few months.

I can nor will I ever forget the party that foisted Biden upon the country for.
political gain. It’s unpardonable the danger the leftist Marxists put the Republic in. Treason of the highest order.

Just prior to Bidumb’s disastrous 2024 debate, some lib puke actually called him a “Socratic scholar.”

When Biden was running I could already see the same look in his eyes that my mom had. She had dementia. I knew it then. They all knew and what they did was elder abuse.

During the Soviet Era, and continued by Putin, the government there practiced the art of vranyo or telling obvious lies, while not expecting anyone to believe them, but to show the government's power by no one daring to question them.

A longtime Moscow correspondent for the New York Times gave a more nuanced explanation of vranyo. He wrote: A Russian friend explained vranyo this way: ‘You know I’m lying, and I know that you know, and you know that I know that you know, but I go ahead with a straight face, and you nod seriously and take notes.’”

This has been the Biden Administration since Day One.

I will never forget Biden’sabortion debate answer tying in raping in laws and sisters. He is disgusting along with the whole Biden clan going back generations.

SELF DECEPTION IGNORANCE LIBERALISM

“Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to. ”
~ Theodore Dalrymple [Anthony Malcolm Daniels] (1949-) English writer (generally using the pen name Theodore Dalrymple), retired prison doctor and psychiatrist]

David Mamet had a famous saying, essentially: …"in order for Democrats, liberals, progressives et al to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend Not to know a lot of things’… "By pretending ‘not to know’ there is no guilt, no actual connection to conscience. Denial of truth allows easier trespass."

I still just don't understand why some folks on freep continue talking about President Joe Biden and whether he's capable of handling the awesome duties of being POTUS. Frankly, I haven't seen anything that indicates President Biden can't fully handle the job of being President. And if President Biden couldn't handle the job, then why was he running again in 2024 for a second term? Oh wait, umm ... never mind.

All Democrats in unison: "Sharp as a tack! Best he's ever been! We in the Administration can't even keep up with President Biden! He's just overflowing with big-dad energy! Oh wait, no, that's The Coach who's overflowing with big-dad energy: 'Joy!' But getting back to President Biden, he's got the most energy I've ever seen in a person. He may be in his early 80s, but he's got the energy of someone who only just turned 80 ... or maybe just turned 90, 100, or 110. Age is just a number anyway. So vote for Joe! Or Kamala, or Justin Trudeau, or whoever, just as long as you vote Democrat. Close your eyes and just vote! Just do it!"

Even today, Jimmy Carter is still sharper than Joe Biden.

The Whitewashed “Hur Report” WRT Biden’s diminishing mental faculties
The well-rehearsed Biden’s convincing act for the gullible Hur kept Biden out of jail

Special Counsel Robert Hur is coming in for scrutiny from the press over his characterizations of President Biden’s memory. The special counsel’s report on Biden’s handling of classified information, characterized “significant limitations” in Biden’s memory during the president’s interview with Hur’s office.

Those limitations, in Hur’s view, justified a decision to decline to prosecute the president, despite Hur’s unflattering depiction of the volume of classified information discovered at his Delaware home and at the Penn Biden Center, and Biden’s mishandling of it.

Biden, Hur reasoned in his report, could be successful in presenting himself to a jury as “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

But today, March 12, the full transcript of Hur’s interview with Biden was made public in advance of the special counsel’s testimony before the House Judiciary Committee.

And as reporters noted, the Biden of the transcript looks quite different from the forgetful Biden described in the report.

“Biden doesn’t come across as being as absent-minded as Hur has made him out to be,” wrote the Washington Post. Both the Post and the Wall Street Journal described the transcript as “more nuanced” than the report itself in terms of what it showed about Biden’s memory.

Yet there’s an irony to the media’s criticisms of Hur in light of the transcript. Overstated though his report might have been, Hur’s interest in Biden’s age was no match for that of the mainstream press itself.

Consider how the Times and the Washington Post covered the original report. “Special Counsel’s Report Puts Biden’s Age and Memory in the Spotlight,” blared the headline of a New York Times article, which described the Hur report as a “political disaster.”

The Washington Post characterized the mood among Democrats as “hair on fire.” By one tally, the Times and the Post each published over 30 stories about Biden’s age and memory in the days following the release of Hur’s report.

“IS BIDEN’S AGE NOW A BIGGER PROBLEM THAN TRUMP’S INDICTMENTS?” asked a CNN chyron two days after the release of Hur’s report.
