And once more. A new video featuring Joe Biden ignites the conservative Internet and inspires conservative commentators. Former Fox News host Geraldo Rivera, no longer a youth himself, took out the violins to comment ruefully on the clip above relayed by British journalist Piers Morgan: “Time and tides have clearly dented President Biden’s ability to navigate life without someone else at the helm. Too often to ignore, he fails to leave the stage. President Obama is helping him navigate, but it is no disrespect to him to note what is painfully undeniable. Our president, aged 81, loses his position. Left alone, he could get lost in the fog. »
The scene in question took place at the end of the Hollywood fundraising gala that Biden attended on Saturday after flying back and forth between the United States and Europe twice to participate in the 80th anniversary of the landings of Normandy and at the G7 summit. On the website of New York Post, Morgan referred to the followers of his X account who commented on the clip posted on Elon Musk’s platform: “As I thought, the vast majority of them shared my honest opinion that President Biden is not fitter to hold America’s highest office. »
“I don’t mean to say he’s too incompetent for the job, although many say he is. No, I mean he is too physically and mentally unfit to perform at the extremely high level required to lead not only the United States, but the free world,” he added.
There is no need for me to repeat here what I have already written about Piers Morgan. It remains that the gesture of Barack Obama taking the arm of a “frozen” Joe Biden, according to the description of Post, to lead him backstage was something remarkable. I’ll leave you to debate whether the president’s behavior should be explained by simple fatigue or whether this behavior reflects an even bigger problem, like the one to which Rivera and Morgan allude.
One thing is certain, we cannot say that these images have no impact on the American public, to the great dismay of the White House:
PS: The first day of the second fundraising campaign for this blog in 2024 continues to go well. A big thank you to everyone who has already contributed, as well as to others who will do so in the near future!
