Joe Biden’s time in public office is now behind him, but his age and mental acuity have become a litmus test for the next leaders in his party.
Audio was published Friday from portions of interviews Biden gave to federal prosecutors in 2023, the latest in a stream of reports putting questions about Biden's health back in the spotlight. Months after former President Kamala Harris lost to President Donald Trump, a new book alleges that White House aides covered up Biden's physical and mental decline.
Several potential Democratic contenders for the 2028 nomination have been asked in recent days whether they believe Biden was declining in office or whether he should have sought reelection before a disastrous debate performance led to his withdrawal.
Many Democrats would prefer to focus on Trump's second term. Trump has done his best to prevent that — mentioning Biden's name an average of six times per day during his first 100 days in office, according to an NBC News analysis — and Republicans have followed his lead, betting that voters frustrated by Trump's policy moves will still prefer him over memories of an unpopular presidency.
In the race for Virginia governor, one of this year's highest-profile contests, Republican Winsome Earle-Sears is running a pair of digital ads tying Democrat Abigail Spanberger to Biden, with images of the two hugging and the former president calling her a friend.
“The stench of Joe Biden still lingers on the Democratic Party,” Democratic strategist Sawyer Hackett said. “We have to do the hard work of fixing that, and I think that includes telling the truth, frankly, about when we were wrong.”
Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut told Politico this week that “there’s no doubt” that Biden, now 82, experienced cognitive decline as president.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
'Those mistakes were largely driven by Joe Biden, and I think any Democrat not willing to say that is not really prepared to face the voters, who want the truth and they want authenticity,' Hackett said."
So, get busy and LIE BETTER? *SMIRK* Same advice Carville is giving the Socialist Democrats!
Oh, that's gonna take a loooooong time.
Yeah...”wrong”...more like lying, conniving, commies
Biden had more synapses connecting in his brain than Kamala.
Not just the Dems...
Every enemedia outlet, every one of our so-called allies...
They all kept the secret, didn’t they.

A modified limited hangout.
Deep State doesn’t allow dissent.
He couldn’t even remember when Trump was elected

He sounded like the smartest guy in the room.
Thanks for posting. No sympathy. Why isn’t that POS and any of his enablers in prison?
30 years too late.
When is the complete audio going to be released? Why aren’t the media forced to play this to show their corruption and propaganda? Where is congress in this? Where are the J6 tapes???
Joe doesn’t have enough left between his ears to understand what’s going on. But Dr Jill does and it’s got to just royally fry her. I hope it leads her to bar no holds in their upcoming revenge book
The song has ended but the melody lingers on...
Dems should be grateful there was no video to go with the audio.
I know there was no primary process to let her run for president, but when was the election that actually elected her?
