More questions about President Biden’s cognitive state are emerging as a new poll showed a jaw-dropping 72% of registered voters do not believe he is mentally fit for the job.
While many Democrats were left flabbergasted and sent into a tailspin by Biden’s debate debacle last week, the 81-year-old president’s cognitive slips have been nothing new to his inner circle.
White House aides have been meticulously working behind the scenes throughout his presidency to minimize his exposure to situations where his cognitive slip-ups could flare up in public and to adapt the day-to-day of the presidency to the needs of an octogenarian.
The commander-in-chief is seen as prone to absent-minded gaffes and fatigue outside of six hours a day — between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. — and while traveling abroad, Axios said in a new report.
From shorter stairs when boarding Air Force One to guiding him on jaunts over concerns about his gait and proclivity for appearing lost, his team has reportedly been forced to step up its efforts over time to shield him more and more.
“I know many of these people and how the White House operates,” said Chandler West, the White House’s former deputy director of photography under Biden, in an Instagram story after the debate, Axios reported.
“They will say he has a ‘cold’ or just experienced a ‘bad night,’ but for weeks and months, in private, they have all said what we saw last night — Joe is not as strong as he was just a couple of years ago,” West said.
“The debate was not the first bad day, and it’s not gonna be the last,” said the ex-administration staffer, who had a first-hand seat to the president’s behavior.
“It’s time for Joe to go.”

1) We in the media lied knowingly to cover for our preferred candidate Biden and didn’t care if the country is in danger from foreign rulers who knew he is feeble and declining.
2) But from now on trust us again as we tell you Trump is a liar and a threat to democracy.
Oh, they KNEW. They knew. They just don’t want the American people to realize they were/are part-in-parcel to covering up the fact that he IS senile, sundowning, debate-downing or whatever you want to call it.
Joe Biden just fit the suit at the time, Obama needed his 3rd term to permanently destroy America so he picked Biden to be his useful idiot..so they covered the fact that he has late stage dementia, but they did such a poor job covering it up it just became noticeable to EVERYONE that he has it..the media knows it, but they used “cheap fake” to cover it up, but everyone saw it now, you cant hide the obvious
calling daily caps - to hide him when he is having an episode of dementia.
having him wear the sunglasses to hide his vacant empty stare.
The rank and file Democrat voter has been breaking the 11th commandment for many years.
He will come back strong in the second debate.
Dementia is like a head cold; it goes away after a couple of weeks...
Just a week ago a Democrat acquaintance volunteered some political views and when I stated Biden is not cognitively aware enough to be president for his current term let alone another one she disagreed and pointed to Trump. Another couple of guys had never heard of Biden s propensity for being creepy around kids and when I brought up his daughters diary at first they acted like they didn’t know what I was talking about and when I explained further said oh that’s been completely debunked.
It’s like some people live in an alternate universe. Yet they act like we do!
I’m saving that quote.
I think the best like is from Chuck Todd: “Why it’s almost as if what the right-wing conspiracy theorists were right about this..”
I spit out my Pepsi and fell out of my chair when I say that...
72% say not mentally fit.
Still polling 45% of voters.
We aren’t a serious country.
“Debunked” seems to be the most overused word of the 21st century.
1. The false videos showing Joe falling or wandering away have been debunked.
2. Showering with his daughter? - debunked.
3. Hunter’s laptop having real information? - debunked.
4. Fraudulent vote counts in 7 swing states in 2020 - debunked.
5. Horrible Afghanistan military departure, including 13 military fatalities - debunked (by Joe).
But if Trump allegedly signs a check to his attorney for hush money after the statute of limitations is passed - OMG! 2 notches worse than Hitler invading Poland!
Hiding his condition from the American people is ELECTION INTERFERENCE.

The anger among Democrats was made evident on Sunday when John Morgan, a top Democratic donor, publicly blamed the advisers who managed the president’s debate preparations, citing by name Ron Klain, Anita Dunn and Dunn’s husband, Bob Bauer.
“Biden has for too long been fooled by the value of Anita Dunn and her husband,” Mr. Morgan wrote on social media. “They need to go … TODAY. The grifting is gross. It was political malpractice.”
He elaborated in a subsequent interview. “It would be like if you took a prizefighter who was going to have a title fight and put him in a sauna for 15 hours then said, ‘Go fight,’” he said. “I believe that the debate is solely on Ron Klain, Bob Bauer and Anita Dunn.”
Members of Mr. Biden’s family were likewise said to be focused on the president’s staff, including Ms. Dunn, a White House senior adviser, and her husband, Mr. Bauer, the president’s personal attorney, who played Mr. Trump during debate rehearsals.
They were asking why Mr. Klain, the former White House chief of staff who ran the preparations, would in their view allow him to be overloaded with statistics, and they were angry that Mr. Biden, who arrived for the debate in Atlanta with a summer tan, was made up to look pale and pallid, said one of the people, who has been in touch with several members of the family.
But the person said that the president himself was not among those who were upset and that he still trusted Mr. Klain, Ms. Dunn, Mr. Bauer and the others. Other Democrats said it was unfair to blame the staff for the president’s own failings, dismissing what they called typical second-guessing and scapegoating.
A couple of Democrats pointed out that family members did not attend the preparation sessions.
In the days since the debate, Mr. Biden has privately and publicly acknowledged that he did not do well, and he has been calling trusted advisers like Mr. Klain; Ted Kaufman, his longtime aide and friend; and Jon Meacham, the historian and informal adviser; as well as key donors and party figures.

the reason for the “bad” debate
is they cant juice him when he is not on a teleprompter
he would have been like a rabid dog up there
when he is juiced and on a teleprompter(leashed)
he is almost coherent
Funny, I watched the debate and then had a dream about the absolute panic and fear the leftist were going through. I don’t want to try to explain the dream, but when I woke up I knew the anger and panic was much more than I thought it would be.
Final Jeopardy
... this should happen after a Trump victory in November ...
I’ll take mass arrests for $666
Yup,, you nailed it.
Not one Dem was in the spin room post-debate......but the Trump people were talking up a storm.
What group is the power behind the throne?
