Biden's 'mental acuity' has diminished in the last 4 years, ex-WH stenographer says: 'He's lost a step'
Fox News ^ | September 08 2020 | Alana Goodman | Washington Free Beacon

Joe Biden’s former White House stenographer said the vice president’s public speaking ability has deteriorated significantly since leaving office to the point where he’s "not the same Joe Biden."

"It is a complete difference from what he was in 2017," Mike McCormick, who worked as a White House stenographer for 15 years and with Biden from 2011 to 2017, told the Washington Free Beacon in an interview. "He’s lost a step and he doesn’t seem to have the same mental acuity as he did four years ago."

"He doesn’t have the energy, he doesn’t have the pace of his speaking," McCormick said. "He’s a different guy."

Young folks may not remember Foster Brooks, but Biden is beginning to remind me of the guy:

Partner, Hiding Biden has lost a step. More like lost half his brain.

These riots, looters, throwing firebombs at police, throwing firebombs at buildings and watching them burn to the ground. These riots are so bad that Hiding Biden has lost the election in November.

This country of Americans are not going the Communist route or Socialist route. We are going the Freedom route.

Look at what has happened to Venezuela and Cuba.

Cuba is led by Raul Castro who is a lot worse than his brother as far as communism is concerned.

I feel sorry for Venezuela and the folks that live here know how bad it is to live under communism.

We are hoping the DemonRat party goes down in flames.

That “step” Joe lost was one stride of the Jolly Green Giant across the cornfield.

It’s always been my observation that if you started out with ‘less’ you weren’t going to automatically improve with old age.

The brain is like any other organ...’use it or lose it’

Also, people who speak and articulate the ‘sloppiest’ way are showing you the condition of their brain. If their statements expose a lack of logic or clarity... then THAT’S what their brain is like...disorganized, inarticulate and dull. Don’t expect accountability out of Jello

He didn’t have much mental acuity to start with.

I hope you’re right. But if you have enough of the wrong people voting, the socialists get into and remain in power. Despite what it has done to them, most voters in Venezuela vote for socialism.

Ditto for California. There is nothing that Biden could say or do that will cost him that state’s 55 electoral votes.

And we must remember that his “diminished mental activity” didn’t exactly start from even a “normal” measure.

Biden has always been a pathological liar. He has told so many lies about himself that I think he accelerated his mental decline by confusing his made-up, brag-ass version of himself with reality.

I’d say he’s lost a 5 mile hike.

Conroy?
The Athletics and Cardinals pitcher?
I never knew he had a career before baseball.

TIM CONWAY on the other hand was a hell of a comedian and one of my favorites.

I am sure there is a way, underhanded as it may be, to pull him at the last minute and put someone new in. Or, Gf, put Kamela at the top of the ticket. Just MHO

I’ve searched and can’t find a reference to Biden being humiliated by Putin in 2011. That is a throw away nugget in this article that needs more explaining.

I did find a reference to Biden claiming he looked in Putin’s eyes and TOLD PUTIN to his face that he didn’t have a soul. Any one believe that whopper???

Partner, you are correct in that California and NY will vote for Hiding Biden.

This is why we are seeing so many folks from these two (2) states going south.

The folks in Florida have gotten a hugh boost in folks from Venezuela and President Trump will win the state of Florida in a landslide.

Chavez and Maduro were propped up by the Communists from Cuba. The secret police in Venezuela is all Cuban Communists and boy are they helping Maduro. It was Raul Castro who propped up this idiot Maduro and Maduro was ready to leave with his millions $$$ out of Venezuela.

We already know that the current Cuban leader that replaced Fidel Castro is his brother Raul Castro who is a tyrant of the nth position.

We also know there has been another Cuban President elected in Cuba and put in by the Communists in power. Not by the people of Cuba.

Venezuela is a drug infested country right as is Mexico.
