We’ve seen all kinds of efforts on the part of the Biden team to cover up for Joe Biden’s issues and incoherence.
They’ve done all they could to try to rush people out of the White House events, rudely yelling and basically pushing them out of the room, even cutting off UK PM Boris Johnson in the process. But it’s not as easy now that Biden is in the White House as it was during the campaign when they could hide him in the basement.
As my colleague Sister Toldjah explained, they even scrapped the traditional “Three Amigos” press conference with Canadian and Mexican heads of state. This was in response to Biden’s numerous off-script mistakes.
Here’s Justin Sink of Bloomberg quizzing White House Deputy Press Secretary Chris Meagher.
“If Jen said that this is going to happen and there’s long-standing precedent of this happening and the most recent data point is yesterday where you guys had to clean up not only this Olympic comment, but his comment on the timing for the Fed and his Taiwan comment, is the worry that you don’t want the president taking questions? And if not, I think the best way to satisfy that would be to have the president out there tomorrow,” Sink said.
But instead, Meagher deflected and said they would have “pool sprays” which wouldn’t necessarily allow questioning Biden.
This led to the bizarre situation that Justin Trudeau (Canadian PM) answered questions on the events of the meetings and Biden did not. Trudeau does not represent our leader, and it is right for us to get answers from anyone who claims to be in the office. We are instead whipped by people who believe they do not have an obligation to Americans. That’s shameful.
But there’s the basic Joe Biden rule — they can always go lower.
If you don’t like elevator music, you’re going to be hearing it where you wouldn’t expect it would ever be — from the White House team instead of any answers from Joe. Just like during awards shows when the speaker has gone on too long, now we’re going to hear music to signal the press that Joe Biden is out of there, as he totters off. No, seriously, I’m not kidding. Let’s talk now about reality TV show hosts. All of this just increases the Joe Biden-like fantasy-land feel. This is why they are so popular on the faux White House stage.

Biden received a physical which included a description of his gait. According to the physical, the problem with Biden’s gait was attributed to spondylosis. He also suffered from peripheral neuropathy. Fox’s Dr. Marc Siegel, who is a clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, said he felt that assessment on the gait problem was insufficient.
“I don’t like that they ascribe his gait issues to a broken foot. First of all, why did he fall,” Siegel inquired, adding that the report also “prescribes the gait problem to spondylosis.”
“That’s an incomplete characterization,” Siegel continued, stressing the importance of understanding why Biden is facing certain health issues. “What I want to know is, where’s the MRIs and where’s the EMGs?
“They did a thorough neurological exam, but they also need to do a nerve conduction EMG, and they need to do an MRI of the brain and the spinal cord to try and explain where this gait problem comes from,” Siegel said.
Biden passed the physical and was declared fit to serve. But there was one big thing that was missing from the physical — that was a cognitive test. So they didn’t answer the biggest question — the one that’s impacting his answers and the reason they’re trying to prevent him from answering. Siegel suggested they could have done tests that could have “ruled out” things associated with cognitive decline. But apparently, they didn’t — perhaps they feared what it might show?
