NPR Moves Its Goal Posts On Senility From Trashing Trump’s Age To Defending Biden’s Decline

NPR tried to reassure Americans that Biden using the short stairs to board Air Force One is a normal precaution to avoid ‘bad optics.’

President Joe Biden is in severe decline, evidenced by his numerous public falls and repeated inability to coherently communicate.

The Democrat’s public displays of clumsiness have left the White House scrambling to cover up his physical and mental incompetencies. Corporate media like NPR, which is known for giving its preferred political candidate a boost in the 2020 election cycle, are all too happy to join in the fun just in time for the 2024 election cycle.

An article from NPR published on Thursday attempted to explain Biden’s permanent switch from the 18-foot staircase traditionally used by presidents boarding Air Force One to a smaller set of steps. The outlet noticed the change began around the same time Biden fell during his commencement speech at the Air Force Academy in June.

NPR tried to reassure Americans that their commander in chief, who has suffered several notable spills in recent months, forgets certain people have died, and speaks in lies sprinkled with gibberish, is just taking normal precautions to avoid “bad optics.”

“Using the safer stairs is common sense, says an aging expert,” one of the article’s subheads suggested.

The publication conceded that “recent presidents mostly used the tall stairs” to enter the iconic aircraft but defended short stairs for Biden as a procedural decision that benefits everyone and should alarm no one.

The one that got me was some time ago. He was boarding his plane, and just as he was entering he was caught on mike saying “salute the Marines”.

The only plausible explanation for this ( to me ) is that he was echoing what he heard in his ear piece, i.e. “salute the Marines”.

Of course, this was an instruction to him, and yet, if I may say so, in his addled state, he merely echoed the phrase, as was, we may surmise, the more common requirement to such a prompt, however inappropriate it may have been under these circumstances.

Just very, very, damning, in regard to his current cognitive status, IMHO. But this slid right by, I guess, unless I missed something.

NPR, proving daily that you can speak softly in a measured manner and still say really stupid things.

NPR's actions give aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States. The Constitution has a word for that.

What’s that word, what is it....

I’ve written my Senators about defunding NPR as they don’t represent many of our beliefs and report far left mantras. My Republican Senators...crickets...why is NPR a sacred cow?

The cool thing about occupied enemy territory is that the peons get to fund their conquerors.
