Biden Can't Remember If He's Talked to East Palestine Mayor Amid Toxic Train Derailment

President Joe Biden's mental health is declining; that's no secret. However, it is alarming when he can't make it through an interview without stumbling over his words or being unable to recall whether he's already talked to someone.

During an interview with ABC on the toxic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, Biden said that he has "talked to everyone that there is to talk to" but can't remember who he has spoken to.

Host David Muir asked Biden if he plans to travel to Ohio and has talked to the mayor.

"I can't recall whether I've — I don't think I've talked to the mayor. I've talked to everyone else there multiple times. I've talked to both the senators, both governors, I've talked to everyone there is to talk to, and we've made it clear that everything is available," Biden said in response.

This comes the same day the president stumbled through answering reporter's questions about the incident.

After telling reporters that he had no plans to visit the train derailment site in Ohio, Biden pointed to a "whole video Zoom" conducted on the incident.

"Are you planning to travel to East Palestine, Ohio?" A reporter asked Biden.

Biden struggled to answer the question.

"At this point, I'm not. I did a whole video, I mean, um, what the hell, on…" the president said.

"Zoom?" a reporter interjected.

"Zoom! All I can think of every time I think of Zoom is that song in my generation, 'Who's Zooming who?" The president continued.

He has drawn criticism for not doing enough to help the residents of East Palestine, while former President Trump took the time to visit the area, handing out bottled water and other supplies.

Instead, Biden is off to his Wilmington, Delaware residence, where he will spend the weekend probably doing nothing.

“I’d love to see Biden travel to East Palestine, only to get booed be the local population.”

That is exactly why he will never go there.

It is a common practice among dictators.

So now we have it among #ComDem’s.

I am convinced they are doing this right in our face.

Never saw that before. Thanks.

But Sadam was real, he did have doubles. Plural

Life is not as seen on TV.

It is much more vivid.

But so is the Great Evil.

He won’t go near anywhere the actual voters can get within his hearing. He knows full well he would be hooted down and humiliated.

“He won’t go near anywhere the actual voters can get within his hearing. He knows full well he would be hooted down and humiliated.”

I think there is more to it than that. Notice that he knows he talked to the Senators and Governors, but can’t remember if he talked to the mayor. In other words, he doesn’t talk to little people. He only talks the the important people, on his level. His message for average folks is still, “I don’t work for you!”

ByeDim’s trying to check whether the 10% of the 500 million we sent Zelensky recently has been deposited in his charitable foundation’s account before he launders our next taxpayer donation to the Ukraine.

I don't see any democrats upset about how the Biden administration handled this environmental disaster. There have been plenty of them trying cover up, deflect, minimize and blame Trump and others.

Dear democrats, the toxins don't check if its victims are democrats or republicans. The environment is just a political tool for you to use against those who don't follow your "progressive" dogma.

Dementia Joe can’t remember what he had for breakfast, much less who he’s talked to. The Buttster was sent as a sacrificial lamb and got out of town while the gittin’ was good.
