A defiant President Biden on Friday declined to agree to an independent neurological assessment and suggested the only thing that might persuade him he could lose to former President Donald Trump is if the "Lord Almighty" came down and told him so.
"Look, I have a cognitive test every single day," Mr. Biden said, insisting the rigors of the job are sufficient to prove his mental fitness. "Every day, I have that test. Everything I do. You know, not only am I campaigning, but I'm running the world."
The president reiterated that he believes he'll be fit for the job for the next four years. Stephanopoulos asked the president if he's being honest with himself about his capabilities.
"Yes, I am, because George, the last thing I want to do is not be able to meet that," Mr. Biden said.
Stephanopoulos asked the president when he realized he was having a bad night. The president replied that he recognized this when Trump was yelling or speaking loudly, and the microphone was turned off. The president said he let Trump distract him.
"I just realized that I wasn't in control," Mr. Biden said.

Yeah - into the ground.
“I’m running the world”
Big mistake as he could have dragged the test out for a few weeks and buy some time. He’s toast now.
He thinks he knows more about neurology than actual neurologists. Very arrogant.
20 minute afternoon sitdown...Didn’t answer any of the questions. poo pooed every scene Stephanie suggested. Said he talked to Schumer...but read that they haven’t talked. Which is it?
Stephanopoulos blindsided him in my own personal, correct opinion. He was brutal and relentless. I have never seen a liberal mediadiot be that vicious with anyone, especially one of their own.
This is getting weird. I’m sure this is kabuki, but Biden seems sincere in his resolve. All will be revealed.
INTERESTING THAT THIS REPORT KEEPS REFERRING TO HIM AS “MR BIDEN”. NOT “PRESIDENT BIDEN”
George was tenacious. I am not sure what his objective was. But I was expecting an indulgent interview.
“INTERESTING THAT THIS REPORT KEEPS REFERRING TO HIM AS “MR BIDEN”. NOT “PRESIDENT BIDEN””
Wow! Good pick up.
When Biden said that he was sick and thought he had Covid George voukd have asked him if you were that sick how come you went to a Waffle House afterwards to infect everyone
So, is he going to have a “bad episode” when the nukes are incoming?
