More questions about President Biden’s cognitive state are emerging as a new poll showed a jaw-dropping 72% of registered voters do not believe he is mentally fit for the job. While many Democrats were left flabbergasted and sent into a tailspin by Biden’s debate debacle last week, the 81-year-old president’s cognitive slips have been nothing new to his inner circle. White House aides have been meticulously working behind the scenes throughout his presidency to minimize his exposure to situations where his cognitive slip-ups could flare up in public and to adapt the day-to-day of the presidency to the needs of

The pResident has a duty to resign. Failing that, the VP has the duty to invoke the 25th amendment and assume the presidency. I don't know if Congress can enforce the 25th.
What is painfully clear, the United States does not have a functional head of state. Four days ago, I thought he was mostly incompetent. And trust me....Russia, China, Iran, North Korea and assorted Islamic terrorist organizations watched that debate. Things are about to get real over the next 6 months.

The Knotseez in the White House, under the direction of Hussein, know that Jill "Barbarian" Biden will not easily relinquish the power that comes along with the Demented Fuhrer.

Seems like maybe some prosecutions are in order.

For a good visual picture the Easter Bunny, that is what the WH aids have been doing for over 4 years.

It's nothing new to those of us in the DMV who've been paying attention for the past 40 years.

The "staffers" should all be removed from their jobs and not allowed to work for Government ever again.
We all know and we see with our own eyes what has been going on for years. We all know Trump won the 2020 election, We all know Biden is a shell, We all know our Government is being run by a shadow government probably foreign globalists. Everything they say about US is what THEY are doing. It's been this way for decades, but finally we have someone who is willing to call them out and that is Donald J Trump.
The dems/media lie unlike anything we've seen and this "debate" proves it. It showed EVERYONE everything they've said has been a big fat lie. And the media looks like the fools and tools that they are. They can spin all they want, but they keep digging themselves into a deeper hole, but they are too inept to realize it.

They did a lousy job of shielding him, just as they did a lousy job at everything else in his administration. No shock and surprises out here. Obama was lazy but he had an adequately functioning brain. Joe is just broken.

FTA: "The problem is, “A true succession plan does not exist,” a senior Dem campaign adviser admitted to CNN. “That’s what makes all of this not just heartbreaking but very problematic.”" No the succession plan for Biden is the same one for every other President this country has had. The problem (for the dims) is they don't like the succession plan. They and all his ballot counters should have considered that 3.5 years ago.

It seems to me that several government employees need to be charged as being complicit in fraud against this country. They are in the White House, the CDC, the CIA, the FBI....

I think there is no good way out! I think they should just keep Biden IN the White House, or at one of his Homes on long vacations. If there is something Important that he needs to go to, send Someone in his Administration like the Secretary of State! Until the next Election, just let things roll along. Keep Kamala in the VP's Home! Come January, if nothing horrible happens to our Country, we can all have a sigh of relief and get on with our Life! I think trying to get Biden out and put someone in his place on the Ticket would just be a Mess! Right now, Trump is a Sure Thing. If they pick someone else to take Biden's place, Democrats all over the Country might just vote for that person because they feel so sorry for Biden being kicked out against his will. I think just leave things how they are and keep Biden under wraps!

We are sitting ducks over here and hamas, hezbollah, and the iranian mullahs all know an opportunity when they see one.

White House staffers are just peons doing what they get paid to do.
I have no problem with them.
I DO have a problem with Chuck the Schmuck, Nancy Pelosi , and the whole of the democrat party in the Congress.
Joe's Dementia was no secret to them.
It was no secret when they placed him in candidacy for the Presidency.
Who has been setting policy for the last 4 years? They know it was not Biden. They all knew it.
Historians will some day wonder who has been giving the orders.

Sure, the staffers are SHIELDING Biteme. A more appropriate term would be hiding him from the public whenever possible. The citizens and taxpayers of this country have no business needing to know the person who is supposed to lead the country is nothing but a shuffling vegetable.

Will someone tell us who is in charge at the White House and who controls the Football?
Also, can someone show us one constructive thing that the VP has done in 3 1/2 years?

Look at what they are doing--- throwing Joe's staff under the bus to keep Dr Jill and the media looking oh-so-inocent-and-pure. The staff does not act on its own! They get orders from someone, somewhere. Somebody ORDERED the staff to cover up and in doing so KNEW they were putting our country at risk. That person AND the complicit media should be exposed and fired, even if it turns out to be a "doctor" in the (White) House.

This morning...President Trump sent out a message on Truth Social...there were three reasons biden did so poorly at the debate...I can list number four...obama is calling the shots and has been for three plus years...the rats never leave anything to chance...and with biden being led off by Obama at the fund raiser and his walk off at the European meeting and then the debate performance tells me that the rats want WE conservatives to get sure of ourselves and let our guard down...not happening...

Two thoughts: Andrew Bates sure knows how to spread the manure! Could a career in farming be in his future? He may just be required to choose a new path for himself.
And, will KJP hide under her desk? If so, for how long? She's been Andy's fellow manure-spreader for a while now. The press should definitely call them out for these lies but unfortunately the press was also involved in this deception.

Four years ago during the "basement campaign," Biden often either deflected a question or added to an answer, "I am going to get into trouble for saying that," or "They told me I should not go there," or "I am supposed to end now," followed by a handler announcing the press conference was over, taking the microphone from him--not that another event was scheduled that day. The press knew then. Commentators on Fox (only) frequently mentioned that the unidentified "they" (presumably his campaign consultants) appeared to be protecting him from himself. The tires were coming off when the plane first left the runway.

This is so eerily reminiscent of 1919 when a stroke-disabled Woodrow Wilson was protected by his wife Edith, and their flunkies while the country descended into a Red Scare and a tanking post WW1 economy.

No! Don’t think about the 25th amendment; let the democrats stew in their poop of their making. They are tied to this demented albatross for the whole world to see. Republicans have a great sense of shooting themselves in the collective foot. Democrats are stuck with Demented and the Ditz.
