Joe Biden’s campaigning from his basement and frequent lids, where Biden was kept away from the media, were a common punchline in conservative media. “How can Joe run a campaign from his basement and hiding from the media?” “How can he be trusted to run the country if he can’t handle a campaign?”
Even when he did leave the basement he got questions about milkshakes. There were times when Joe Biden wouldn’t be seen for days. His campaign told us that it was because of debate prep, but no one actually believed it.
But the campaign is over now. Regardless of whether you believe Biden was legitimately elected, he has the job he applied for, the job we were told repeatedly by his campaign he was fit to handle. So it’s more than a bit concerning that on Saturday, a mere four days into his presidency, Kelly O’Donnell, the White House correspondent for NBC News, reported that the White House had called a lid, and Biden would not be seen in public for the rest of the day.
The White House calls a "lid" on the first Saturday of this administration so we will not see President Biden for any public event the rest of the day.

This isn’t even funny anymore. It never actually was funny, but now it’s far more serious. Biden and his campaign assured the country he was perfectly fit and able to handle the duties of president, and yet Biden is already being hidden from the media four days into the job.
When President Trump got COVID-19, he didn’t let that stop him from running the country, even as Biden called another lid.

“Random sentences strung together,” says Kirk.
“He looks drugged, Jim,” says McCoy. “Almost in a cataleptic state.”
“They’ve kept what’s left of him as a figurehead,” says Kirk.
Thanks for the info
I do remember reading an article about Joe's financial disclosure raising more questions than answering. If I remember correctly, a few of his homes weren't even listed.
What’s the over/under that Kameltoe appoints Rodham as her VP then suddenly resigns?
You’re right. In a dementia patient the decline can be directly equivalent to the amount of stress the patient experiences. Donald Trump was able to deal with stress because the high pressure world of NYC real estate and construction conditioned him to it.
Biden has had everything handed to him or handled through
numerous aides. He has never had to break a sweat for anything. Dementia is a literal wasting away of brain tissue.
Medications can only stave it off for a time but like a damned up river eventually it breaks and there is a flood.
Medications have side effects and for an elderly person this is a considerable risk. Biden will have another stroke at some point.
While that will be bad for the nation I have to confess I hope he does have one.
Ah yes, the Star Trek episode where they were on a planet with a Nazi government.
As I recall, that guy was a figurehead, an old infirm man, and was drugged up to give speeches, while the real power was held by some other evil character.
Parallels to today?????
“Patterns Of Force’’.
What species?

Can you all imagine Cheater’s State of the Union address? If he lasts that long.
Even the late night so-called comics will have a field day.
Remember too, that back in Roosevelt’s time, television as we know it didn’t yet exist. So people didn’t see the president on the TV news just about every day as we do now. His appearances in the movie newsreels of the day were probably staged so as to not show that he couldn’t walk.
Why isn’t Jim Acosta outside the White House right now reporting for CNN that Joe is calling a lid for the weekend?
Sometimes a new president doesn’t do a State of the Union speech, since he just gave his inaugural speech. We’ll see.
You are correct. Jo Biden’s last reported medical examination occurred more than a year ago, in December 2019. Therein his physician made no mention of his cognitive ability or his mental status.
The malfeasance of the American press needs no greater exemplification than its complete lack of interest in Biden’s apparent mental decline. There is no reported interview with his physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, over the past 18 months.
Yesterday’s ‘lid’ and the ‘president’s’ “Salute the Marines” sleep walking incident proves that a transparent cognitive review is way past overdue.
Today, did the Biden's go to Catholic Church Service?
How many of the Biden families are residing in the White House?
Good question. Where’s Hunter? In the basement doing lines of coke? How does the coke get into the white house?
President Trump worked more in one day than b does in two weeks.
I think it’s very possible. And please don’t remind me of that nutcase, having “it” be from my home state is disheartening enough.
