On Monday President Joe Biden momentarily lost his train of thought, leading to a surprising pause that didn’t go unnoticed.
Biden has faced scrutiny lately over his mental fitness and the demanding role of leading the United States.
“Tremendous amount of things you can cut, maybe precisely, tremendous amount of things you can do, not cut. tremendous amount of things you can do, not cut. He said, I will, and the bottom line is, he’s still at it,” Biden said.
“Not long ago, my buddy John McCain passed away.”
WATCH:
“My predecessor friend, that’s how he ended his career,” Biden stated, leaving listeners puzzled over his use of “predecessor” to describe McCain, a fellow senator and one-time presidential candidate, but never a president.
WATCH:
In early February, Special Counsel Robert Hur released a comprehensive report meticulously detailing instances of mismanagement of sensitive information by the president, pinpointing a critical and alarming aspect of the situation: the president’s memory appears to be suffering from “significant limitations.”
The slip of the tongue fueled a spectrum of concern over the President’s mental acuity to debates.

Why are we letting these brain dead idiots run us into the ground?

And they try to tell us he wasn't drugged for the SOTU. LOL. He's cooked.

His brain is gone. The coke got him this far, but it’s almost over

To be fair, he was programmed to say "predecessor" for the SOTU and they haven't had time to update the software.
