Sources close to Biden report 'marked incidence of cognitive decline' in last 6 months: Bernstein

The insiders (Obama’s crew)...calculated this five years ago...you’d have a dementia president and a half-wit as VP. Jill saw the whole script developing and never said a word. All of these failures since 2021....really lay at the fault of the Obama crew thinking their combined strategy would make for a cohesive operation.

What do we actually know?

1. Biden is mentally and physically impaired.

2. The degree of his impairment is difficult to ascertain in the absence of tests but the extent of the impairment inferred from isolated incidents of observation, when considered together, indicates moderate to severe mental impairment.

3. The nature of the impairment is not certain but a reasonable inference drawn from his visible symptoms is that he is suffering from Parkinson's disease which carries both mental and physical disabilities.

4. Observations over the past 3 1/2 years make it clear that Biden's impairments have increased and it further appears that the pace of that increase is accelerating.

5. Whether the degree of Biden's impairment has reached the stage which requires his removal from office in an amendment 25 proceeding is not clear.

6. Regardless of the actual degree of Biden's impairments, there is little reason to believe that his cabinet and Vice President, in judging the level of his impairment, would behave impartially, that is, patriotically.

7. It is not clear that Biden can function at a level that is acceptable from a 25 TH amendment perspective until January 20, 2025. But it is also not clear that the people who would be responsible for invoking that amendment would do so or fail to do so based on the actual facts of Biden's condition.

8. The state of Biden's physical and mental condition means that, while imprecise in clinical terms when the diagnosis is drawn only from occasional episodes, it is certainly clear that Biden likely will not physically survive this life until January 20, 2029.

9. Even if there is no absolute certainty that Biden will not survive physically until January 20 2029, it is too dangerous in the nuclear age to expect Biden, in view of his level of mental deterioration and the pace of acceleration of that deterioration to serve as president for one more full term.

10. Polls taken over the course of the Biden administration show clearly that no Republicans, nor even Democrats, favor Kamala Harris to succeed to the presidency between now and January 2029.

Given these conclusions, we ought to consider what we know or should expect concerning:

1. Whether the Democrat party can replace Biden on its ticket against his will and nominate someone else?

2. Whether the Democrat party might be satisfied to leave Biden on the ticket because it substitutes a more reassuring person as vice president candidate, such as Newsom.?

3. Whether Biden might be convinced to withdraw?

4. Is there a difference between the party at convention or otherwise simply changing its candidate on the one hand and changing the candidate state-by-state according to state laws, on the other hand?

5. Assuming Biden is replaced on the ticket, can he logistically be placed on the ballot in all 50 states?

6. Assuming Biden cannot be replaced in all 50 states, will the missing states assure his defeat?

So, is Bernstein and Woodward going to team or compete to take down Biden, securing his resignation?

[AnthonySoprano]

2021 when he couldn’t remember an answer. He looked like he was going to cry.

[Gene Eric]

Exactly.

[Gene Eric]

It should be an interesting convention. Can’t imagine all the love the delegates are currently getting.

Remembering September 29, 2020, Hume claimed that Biden was “senile”: “I don’t think there’s any doubt (Joe) Biden’s senile.”

I thought he was losing it when he debated Paul Ryan. Biden is what you get when a pathological liar gets dementia

[BerryDingle]

Jimmy Carters' 99 in hospice, but I understand he still has his faculties.

There's a huge digestive disagreement among media and liberals inside America's Colon about Biden getting reinstalled. The media was well aware last June when they called for a debate. Let's Go Brandon is in stage 7 of Alzheimers, if he makes it to Nov, he may be in hospice. Hard to wrap your mind around the fact there's asshats out there that want him running again. Fentanyl, sex and slave labor, and Chinese oil may figure in prominently.

But, but, but... isn't the job of the reporter to assist the power elite?

[Recovering_Democrat]

This is fake news. Biden has had noticeable decline for more than five years. I refuse to give the media a pass for saying “it only happened the last six months.”

[GOPJ]

“The job of the newspaper is to comfort the powerful and afflict the powerless.”

New slogan for the Washington Post...

Here is the CNN segment

[Pete Dovgan]

The obvious questions came.

“How long has it been like this?”

There come the same media shills that said there wasn’t a problem pre-election, now saying only a few months. The next question the Democrats should ask:

“How long has the media been lying to us, and was Donald Trump right all along?”

However, don’t expect that level of intellectual honesty from people who still believe that 2020 was clean and fair election.

Really?

The decline started in 1975.

[Clutch Martin]

We knew this 10 years ago

[Ann Archy]

Forget that Biden is mentally and physically impaired......he is an EVIL, CORRUPT, CRIMINAL LIAR!!! He is PURE EVIL!!

WHO would EVER say that little girls are RAPED by their IN LAWS, BROTHERS, SISTERS, etc.......UNLESS they had EXPERIENCED SUCH!!

[Clutch Martin]

The economist Thomas Sorrell calls Biden an idiot. Biden pretends and BS his way through a Committee inquisition.
