For The NY Times, Biden Will Never Be Too Old To Be President

Is Joe Biden Too Old To Be President?

Watching Joe Biden struggle through jokes at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner was just more proof that he may not be fit for the presidency. But one New York Times columnist argues that we don’t even need a president. David Leonhardt wrote in a newsletter last week that the American government can function without a healthy president. However, his comparison of Biden to former President Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II is wrong. FDR was mentally sharp throughout his tenure in the White House and was 20 years younger than Biden.

Biden’s Decline Is A Concern

Now, let’s be clear: We’ve never had a president so out of it in the history of America. We could list a thousand examples, but just one is needed — the most recent. Biden popped by a gathering of parents and children on Take Your Children to Work Day. One child at the White House event asked the president, “What was the last country you traveled to?”

“The last country I’ve traveled — I’m trying to think the last one I was in — I, I’ve been to 89 — I’ve met with 89 heads of state so far, so, uh — I’m trying to think. What was the last — Where was the last place I was? It’s hard to keep track. Um, I was — ” Biden said.

“Ireland!” another child yelled in reply.

“Yeah, you’re right, Ireland,” Biden said. “That’s where it was. How’d you know that?”

Because that child’s got a working brain, Mr. President.

Is Biden Running The Show?

One Republican presidential candidate thinks that Biden running for re-election is tantamount to elder abuse — and claims that Biden isn’t really running the show, anyway. Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy said last week on Fox News. “It’s just the managerial class using Joe Biden as a front to advance its own agenda. To them Biden’s cognitive impairment isn’t a bug. It’s a feature.”

“This is how the managerial class crushes everyday citizens – not with a bang, but with a whimper,” he said.

Ramaswamy was harsh, calling Biden a “hollowed-out husk.”
