Audio released of Biden interview with special counsel who described him as an ‘elderly man with a poor memory’

CNN — Audio of then-President Joe Biden’s interview with former special counsel Robert Hur in the now-closed probe over Biden’s handling of classified documents was published by Axios on Friday.

The interview became one of the most notable and politically controversial parts of Hur’s investigation, which concluded there wasn’t enough evidence to charge Biden with criminal mishandling of records after his vice presidency. In a final report, Hur called Biden, 81 at the time, “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

The audio comes as questions about Biden’s physical and mental capabilities have returned to the spotlight. A forthcoming book – “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again” by CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’ Alex Thompson – details signs of Biden’s decline while in office.

If you listen to the audio, it's pretty clear he had diminished capacity.

Trump needs to challenge every single bill and pardon Biden conducted.

There is no way that Joe will be able to articulate what he did in any response

The gullible Hur made every Asian look like a brainless loser.

Hur called 81 y/o Biden, “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

Hur underplayed Biden’s senility. He was too kind.

That is an outright lie

I have a sneaking suspicion Hur got bamboozled by Biden insiders—
promising him if he went easy on the filthy Biden, he’d get a higher-paying govt job.

Why was the audio released now?

My hunch is the D’s want Biden to go away. Lady McBiden won’t let that happen. He showed up on The View, for example.

Deep state swampers/Obamas “leaked” these to far left “Axios” in order to embarrass the Bidens into a silence and obscurity.

The gov should definitely re-examine all of Biden’s work. Who signed the pardons? Who signed the bills? Were there crimes committed? I have a feeling, however, this will be a Woodrow Wilson thing..an “Oh yeah...sheesh” moment where nothing happens except a history book footnote.

We all knew Biden was a sock puppet...we said so continuously and constantly.
I AM disgusted that Jake Tapper is now profiting off the decline he clearly saw because he is a LIAR.
I AM disgusted that there is no real backlash against Schumer and Pelosi for lying to us all and orchestrating a coup. [Glad, tho, that it failed so miserably.]

It was a tragic 4 years in our history.If Congress will get off their azzes, we can turn the page and have a fantastic couple of decades...

I guess Hur & I can agree that Biden is a man (I have a degree in biology so stay in your lane!) but I feel zero sympathy for a man who is in equal parts stupid and vindictive. His memory may be poor but what he’s forgetting is the evil that he’s done.

Not true.

There was plenty of evidence that Biden was guilty of criminal mishandling records, including the actual possession of said records in multiple unsecured locations, and Biden's admissions that he shared the information with his ghostwriter in preparation for writing a book.

Hur felt that no jury would convict Biden in his frail state, but the evidence of the crime was plentiful.

I’m disgusted that the demented cretin was INSTALLED in office through a fraudulent election. And NOTHING will ever be done about it.

These tapes bring up several different crimes to pursue.

1. The malpractice lies of the examiner.

2. The lies of the staff shielding Biden’s incapacity.

3. The lies and crimes of the family members

4. The overreach of the people actually making administration decisions.

5. The illegality of the orders and bills from the administration.

6.the election tampering that installed this puppet to manipulate.

I am sure there is more

The problem with the 25th amendment is that it doesn't vacate the office of the presidency; presidential power transfers to the Vice President as Acting President, but the President still remains in office until he either dies or resigns.
