The World Saw Biden Deteriorating. Democrats Ignored the Warnings.
Wall St Journal ^ | Annie Linskey, Laurence Norman and Drew Hinshaw

European officials had already been expressing worries in private about Biden’s focus and stamina before Thursday’s debate, with some senior diplomats saying they had tracked a noticeable deterioration in the president’s faculties in meetings since last summer.

...

“The reading in Europe is that this has been an unmitigated disaster,” said Nathalie Tocci, director of the Institute of International Affairs in Rome and a former adviser to the EU’s foreign-affairs chiefs, referring to Biden’s attempts to reassure voters worried about his age....

In the hours after Thursday’s debate, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk told reporters that the Democrats have a problem.

...

Norbert Röttgen, a senior lawmaker in Germany’s center-right main opposition party and the former chair of its parliament’s foreign-affairs committee, said on X: “The Democrats must switch horses now.” Slovenian former Prime Minister Janez Janša said he bet months ago that Biden would no longer be on the ballot in November.

...

During the brief exchange [in the trip to France], Biden flubbed when explaining what the Ukrainians would do with a new tranche of $225 million in funds that the U.S. was sending. Biden told Zelensky that money was “to help you reconstruct the electric grid.” Officials traveling with the president explained that the money was actually a series of munitions including air defenses that could protect the electric grid, among other targets, and not for rebuilding the electric grid.

Back in Washington for a brief time between his trips to France and Italy, Biden appeared at a Juneteenth concert at the South Lawn. Video footage of the event showed him clapping noticeably out of time to the music. He needed assistance from the person seated next to him when it was time for him to get up.

This article is behind a paywall, but I captured most of the major points.

There was a bit about how Biden's donors are freaking out after meeting him so add that issue to your thinking.

Oh please!! They knew. His handlers don’t care. A senile old man is the compliant sock puppet they want and need.

Meanwhile we have an incapacitated president who can’t find his way off stage without help.

And now that Hunter's laptop has been officially recognized as being completely legit by the US Department of Justice it can be said that the world saw that The Big Guy was,*in fact*,getting 10% from the Chinese...and others.

You can bet our enemies saw the brain-dead cadaver in all of his magnificent glory, up on the stage next to a REAL thinking president. We better be prepared, because the worst is yet to come.

It’s crucial to remember that what imploded debate night was not just candidate
Joe Biden, but the obliteration of a cheap, carefully constructed Democrat facade.
<><>Biden is not “wise, strong and as alert as ever.”
<><>he’s not “all right.”
<><>his age-related infirmities are not a “wicked lie.”
<><>the economy is not “thriving.”
<><>the border is not “secure.”
<><>foreign policy and national defense are not “The Best They’ve Ever Been.”
<><>our beloved country is not “fine” under Joe Biden.

Even more frightening is to think that Biden actually makes any decisions
at all, much less on the fly, which is what a President is supposed to do.

Debate night Joe was befuddled, bewildered with nowhere to turn. We should be worried. All of our countries’ enemies saw that we have no functioning president. You can bet they now smell blood. Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un were all watching and are making plans accordingly.

The deep state, democrats and their media allies have put our country closer to peril than ever before with the stunt they pulled debate night, and Biden couldn’t stop it even if he had the intellectual acuity needed to accomplish it.

The Democrat cabal, under Joe Biden, has given us government by secret committee and it doesn’t work.

The DIMs/Leftists purposefully exploited this shell of a human for their sinister, criminal purposes. “Dr” Jill intimately knew of his condition and purposefully continues to exploit him. They all plotted (including biden himself) and lied to America (and continue to do so). Aside from biden (and his extended family) being chronic, sociopathic criminals, there is no excuse for their traitorous, destructive behavior. To this cabal of anti-America freaks their goal of power and money is preeminent. To Hell with them all. Hopefully, they will all face justice before that ultimate justice. Subhuman demons like them all deserve whatever they ultimately receive. No mercy should be shown to them.

They didn’t ignore the warnings, they gaslighted everyone. They knew but lied about it. That’s not “ignoring”.

His wife and his staff are going to hold on to him like Grim Death ‘cause they don’t want to lose their positions.

The Dems watch CNN and MSNBC as their news sources. Those outlets do not reflect the truth about Biden. So I’m not surprised the Dems are just now discovering the truth. They are just now being told the truth in CNN and MSNBC. We have a news outlet problem, Biden is just a result of this primary driver.

Agreed. It's somewhat entertaining watching them try to distance themselves from the disaster of their own making however.

The Left’s denial/delusion is so severe that it might be said that they, like Biden, have a bad case of dementia.

JoeK along with Nurse Ratched were just in L.A. for a 28 million dollar Hollywood fundraiser. No break in ranks that I have heard from the Film Actors Guild members. Fluck Clooney, Julia Robert's, Striesand and the rest of those Marxists scumbags.

They are practiced at the art of deception. You can tell by their blood stained hands.
