President Biden reassured Americans Tuesday that there was reason to be optimistic about “2020” — mistakenly saying the wrong year four days into 2022.
Biden’s post-New Year’s gaffe came as the president urged people to keep wearing masks and get vaccinated for COVID-19 as the Omicron variant causes record-high numbers of infections.
“There’s a lot of reason to be hopeful in 2020. But for God’s sake, please take advantage of what is available,” the president said.
Biden’s political foes often claim he’s going senile and former President Donald Trump accused Biden of being “mentally shot” during the 2020 campaign.
Biden’s defenders says he’s simply prone to gaffes and point to decades of examples.
Biden, 79, is the oldest-ever president and his cognitive abilities increasingly are a topic of public debate.
Last month, Biden mistakenly referred to Kamala Harris, his vice president, as “President Harris” — repeating an error he made twice before.
Biden says he plans to run for a second term in 2024, but many Democrats don’t believe it and polls find broad concern about his mental acuity.
Biden would be 86 if he completes a second term.
A Politico/Morning Consult survey published in November found that 50 percent of registered voters disagreed with the statement “Joe Biden is in good health,” while only 40 percent agreed and 10 percent did not know or had no opinion.
The poll also found that 48 percent of voters disagreed with the statement “Joe Biden is mentally fit,” while 46 percent agreed and 6 percent did not know or had no opinion.

Okay, so none of you have even written the previous year on a check?
Biden is a barely conscious nitwit … but this is picking at a nitwit.
Democrat blacks pushed Biden over the edge - for the benefit of their their white liberal elite masters - and into the White House. Let’s remember that when President Drooling starts World War III

Dementia doesn’t get better.
Yes, except other video exists of the same event showing Biden walking normally. Maybe the news people edited it so conspiracy people would go nuts. No idea. But it isn’t a green screen. And yes Biden is a frail and senile man.
Psaki - "Why, he's always been stupid. That's no reason to think he's senile."
Hell, the guy may be right.
This is no big deal to the mainstream media that was unrelenting in its ridicule of Vice President Dan Quayle.
There was a lot of reason to be hopeful at the beginning of 2020. When I think about what we have been through the past two years, the words of the Bob Seger song Against the Wind come to mind, “I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then.”

Funny.
I know you meant well but I am already adamantly anti-smoking and anti-drinking.
I guess I’m the kind of guy Arthur C. Clarke once called the astronauts: They could liven up a party simply by leaving it.
