Gas prices go up, everyone gets mad. Dude adds supply to try to lower input prices, everyone gets mad. Conclusion: some folks were born mad and are gonna stay that way regardless.
It is a survey by https://mclaughlinonline.com/
They are clearly hyper partisan, but being charitable that should be fine, we just need to see what exactly the survey methodology is, I can't find it. Wonder why.
Or its just obviously nonsense and we can ignore the crazy person?
It's a pointless strawman anyway. He's clearly not the one making the decisions, so it doesn't matter if he's sane or not. A big chunk of his cabinet is equal to Obama's as well. And before you come in with "but Trump did X". Yes, Trump was an idiot as well. Different people can be morons at the same time.
This is the first time your hearing that people want him to take a cognitive test?
It comes up in almost every one of the (very rare) times he talks to the press. I guess that means the strategy is working. That’s kind of frightening to be honest.
I’m curious if you just don’t follow political news?
The Biden campaign, and subsequently administration’s policy has been extremely limited press availability. Biden has for most of his political career been a known gaff machine; he is a compulsive liar, and will essentially make up stories on the spot which are false. He’s been doing this since the 1980s. I don’t mean this to sound like a partisan attack, and I know it sounds like that to a non political news junkie. Before you make that assumption just please google it. However in the last few years this has gotten extremely bad to the point where many even within his own party have been calling his mental faculty into question.
Anyway, the fact you didn’t know this seems to indicate that the stately of restricting his interactions with the public is working.
Honestly I can’t even remember the last time he had press availability. Was it right after the Afghanistan disaster?
He does give pretty frequent “remarks” where he’ll post some prepared speech that he reads, but that’s usually it. That’s not what I mean.
And honestly: I just don’t get where you’re going with this. Bidens mental decline isn’t even a partisan thing at this point is it? Even his own part seems to be indicating they don’t think he could handle another campaign.
(We should stop this convo though since it’s just going into politics crap now)
> Bidens mental decline isn’t even a partisan thing at this point is it?
Unfortunately, it very much is a partisan allegation - one I find poorly sourced.
> Bidens refusal to engage with the press has been a constant frustration
From your source:
>> The one measure where Biden has outpaced the men who came before him is in informal question and answer sessions – of which he has done 216 compared with 120 for Trump and just 46 for Obama.
That doesn't scream "mental decline" to me: informal Q&A's are less structured and more mentally taxing (broader topics, so coaching & prep don't help as much). In the clips I've encountered, Biden sounds very lucid, and very off-the-cuff.
