Is 80-year-old Joe Biden really fit for four more years? After a first term marked by gaffes and falls, doctors tell DailyMail.com they fear for health of President who has suffered two brain aneurysms and has a heart issue - raises his risk of dementia

Medical experts have raised concerns about whether President Joe Biden is fit to serve another term after the 80-year-old officially launched his reelection campaign.

They fear Biden, who would be 86 at the end of a second stint in the White House, is already showing signs of 'cognitive impairment' and that the stress of another presidency could deteriorate his condition further and raise the risk of an on-screen accident.

The President's first term has been marked by a series of high-profile gaffes, falls and visible signs of disorientation - including stumbling up the steps of Air Force One and falling off his bike in Delaware.

Biden's yearly physical exam revealed America's oldest President is suffering from seven conditions, including a heart condition that makes the muscle beat too fast, causing dizziness and confusion. He has also suffered two brain aneurysms.

Dr Elena Mucci, a geriatric doctor and American College of Physicians member, told DailyMail.com: 'If I was his geriatrician, I would discourage him from campaigning. I'd strongly advocate against it.'

Dr Mucci added: 'If you were to survey healthcare professionals, geriatricians, cardiologists, I don't think you will find a single physician who would say it's a good thing for an 86-year-old to with the symptoms he's demonstrated to us already to become a president, both for the sake of his own health and for the sake of his country.'

Biden has a history of atrial fibrillation, or an irregular heartbeat, which he has suffered since 2003. He takes the blood thinner apixaban, brand name Eliquis, to treat the heart condition.

Dr Mucci said: 'If you open any medical book, one of the symptoms [of atrial fibrillation] is tiredness.

The stupid bastard was “fit” for his first four but the entire, so called “mainstream media” defended the Demented One from the very beginning. That’s why America, or are we Mehico now, is in such a friggin’ mess.

I had really hoped he’d do the LBJ thing and pass on a second term.

Just another story about age. The intent is to use it against DJTrump. No, BeijingBiden was worthless 40 years ago. He has always been a dim bulb. That is why he is such a great puppet.

Don’t even agree with the premise. Dismiss all stories about BBiden’s “aging”. It is basic competency. BBiden never had it.

When your baseline is zero worrying about the situation getting worse is just childish.

That fool wasn’t fit for his first 4 years, but, that didn’t stop the criminals in charge of AmeriKa from putting him in office, did it?

However, he was NOT elected; He was INSTALLED.

Of course. That is why I put elected in quotes

Told my husband this morning that I hope I can keep my emotions in check coming up on the Presidential election. I have lived in Georgia all my life! Trump 2024!

Crooked Joe is not fit for the term he is currently usurping, and the ONLY future "term" he should serve should be in Supermax or GITMO!

I'm beginning to wonder how much worse The Cacklin' Ho could be than Crooked Joe.

I wouldn’t hire that senile old crook to sweep my shop, no way I’d hire him to make life & death decisions with the world’s future.

I’ve gotta laugh, but I got banned from /r/whitepeopletwitter on Reddit because I called Biden a “dementia riddled pedophile”.

Everything I said in that statement is 100% true, but I got banned. Oh well, I just read it for laughs anyway.

Joe’s risk of getting dementia is zero. He already is in the advanced stage.
