Confused Biden wanders behind podium, stares at the floor as Jordanian king speaks
NY Post ^ | 2/12/24 | Victor Nava

A confused-looking President Biden paced back and forth behind King Abdullah II of Jordan Monday, apparently unsure of where to stand ahead of the royal’s remarks.

“Your majesty, over to you,” Biden, 81, told the king after welcoming him to the White House.

As Abdullah prepared to deliver his speech, the president shuffled around behind him and the podium, gazing down at the floor as if looking for a mark indicating the proper place for him to stand.

Biden waffled between two different spots before settling on what was initially his first choice, to Abdullah’s left side and in front of the Jordanian flag.

The president’s indecision appeared to throw off the king, who at one point looked over his left shoulder expecting to see Biden but he wasn’t there.

“I switched sides on you,” Biden said, before moving over to the left side of the now smiling king.

Biden’s latest episode of onstage confusion comes days after special counsel Robert Hur opted against recommending criminal charges against the president related to his handling of classified White House documents, in part because a jury may view Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”

Biden couldn’t recall the years he served as Barack Obama’s vice president and when his late son Beau Biden died, according to Hur’s report.

RNC Research, an X account managed by the Republican National Committee, seized on the gaffe, clipping the video with the caption, “BIDEN: What am I doing? Where am I going?”

“The world is laughing at US,” Andrew Giuliani, a former Trump administration official and the son of the former NYC mayor, wrote on X, sharing footage of the strange moment.

“Don’t judge his mental acuity...

Dr. Jill says he's just fine. Also read somewhere that Brandon took no questions. There should be a doomsday clock for all this.

Historians will look back at this period as “the age of silliness”.

I would imagine the end of this madness could be quite entertaining.

For previews folks can visit the residents of the dementia wing of the local assisted living or nursing home.

"Okay, here's the thing, Joe: We cooked up this classified document squeeze against Trump and we would have finally gotten him on something except in the process, it came out how you're actually the one who's guilty as sin along with that useless tool Pence. We managed to push him out of the way, but we can't do that with you. That means instead of you walking into walls around convention time and we move in a new nominee, you're going to have to do it sooner so we can get you off by saying you're unable to mentally function.

Now stop complaining. Just do a little here and there while we finish the report, but you have to make it look good once it comes out in February because we need to drop the anvil on Trump for Super Tuesday and that's not until early March. Now don't worry, we'll cover you till then by playing up the internal fighting in the party angle plus a little Dr. Jill protecting her man at key points.

After we drop it on Trump, we'll have you tone it down until we get closer to the convention. It's going to be tight, no thanks to you thinking you could use your @#$&*! garage like it's one of those take-a-book kiosks, but we should be able to go back to our original plan and still nail Trump. Obama was right about you, but even he can't believe the mess you made of this."

This was after looking around for the King’s son, as if he would be on the podium too.

Joe will go at the Dems convention. Over all her theatrical protests, The Mooch will be drafted by Dems honchos and billionaires. She will accept for America! That she loves! So much that Donald Trump must be defeated.

Kamala is a clown who will be shunted aside. She will be promised a cabinet position in the Mooch administration. Kamala mind is gonzo. She will be as bad as Joe Potato in 25 years.

I honestly think they may even be deliberately dialing back his medicine so that he gets worse as November approaches.

The Roman Empire had it share of Caesars who had serious mental conditions, but it was the duty of the Praetorian Guard to corner the really insane, and somehow, exit from a closed chamber with a call going out for a new Caesar.

Caligula comes to mind. Tiberius was the ultimate “dirty old man”. Nero had a blood-lust with his first two wives, killing and beheading the first, and kicking the second one to death. Nero replaced her with a young male whom Nero had castrated and turned into a transvestite, and there are also stories about a carnal relationship with his own mother. Commodus was a megalomaniac, competing in gladiatorial contests, posing as Hercules, and even, for a short while, had the City of Rome renamed after himself. And as a precursor of the present day mania for “transgenderism”, Elagabalus became ruler at age 14, changed the religion of Rome to animal sacrifice, and demoted even Jupiter to a secondary position among the gods, indulged in “experimental” sex, and even compelled his physicians to castrate him and give him female organs. Not much under the sun is that new or original.

As dismal and horrid as Kamalla would be Michelle would be exponentially worse.

It won’t be Michelle, they’re throwing that name out there as a head fake.

“Historians will look back at this period as “the age of silliness”.”

I strongly disagree. It will be the age of utter insanity and corruption.
