Full Interview: Biden Says His Mental Acuity 'Pretty Damn Good,' Defends Decision To Stay In Race

Posted • July 16, 2024: President Joe Biden sat down with NBC News’ Lester Holt, which was yet another foray into how this aging president doesn’t have the mental capacity to do the job. Like his sit-down with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, Biden sounded tired and incapable of delivering lines about his mental health and the failed assassination attempt on former President Trump with the confidence and stability needed to quell concerns about his ability to do the job. Three things were notable about this interview: Biden seemed incapable or reluctant to take responsibility for increasing the temperature of the so-called heated political rhetoric emanating from liberals in recent months. He also destroyed his talking point on being mentally sharp since he thought his Secret Service director was a man. And the president once again dabbled in poll denialism.

Biden’s age is an issue for Democrats any way you cut it: three-fourths of the nation think he’s too old, Biden can’t de-age, and the only way to turn these numbers around is to make more public appearances, which Biden can’t do. The man was gassed after his little trip to Michigan. Biden must do multiple rallies in crucial battleground states until Election Day to change the course of the race, but he will not be able to do it. The gaping wound will continue to bleed until all the ballots are counted, and it’s very noticeable among the electorate. Trump also leads Biden in Virginia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan. The national polls mean bupkis because a close race is a Trump advantage, any way you cut it. Biden must be polling much better nationally to be near a baseline where a path to 270 is possible. Right now, Biden is heading for defeat. “My mental acuity’s been pretty damn good,” says the man who referred to Secret Service Director Kimberley Cheatle as a man.

Seems, um, concerning that the Commander-in-Chief claims to be meeting with top security officials and then gets caught not knowing who those people are. The president also spoke about Trump talking about bloodbaths (a lie) and repeated the “very fine people on both sides” lie against Trump that’s long been debunked, including by left-wing fact-checkers. When Biden was asked about the classified document issues that engulfed him and Trump, the president lost his train of thought. -- Lester Holt: "Would you be open to doing [another debate with President Trump] in the next few weeks?" -- Biden: "I'm going to debate him when we agreed to debate. And I'm going to debate him in September." -- Holt: "But if the opportunity came up to do one between now and then? Is there a sense of wanting to get back on the horse?" -- Biden (getting angry again): "I'm on the horse! Where have you been!"

Biden is asked about the dismissal of the classified documents case against President Trump, starts rambling before he eventually completely loses his train of thought. -- Lester Holt: "Have you taken a step back and done a little soul searching on things that you may have said that could incite people who are not balanced?" -- Biden: "I have not engaged in that rhetoric. Now my opponent has engaged in that rhetoric…" 一一 Biden ONCE AGAIN repeats the "very fine people on both sides" lie during his NBC News interview…and Lester Holt let's it slide. It was another sloppy interview, where the president’s mental fitness was displayed again, and he failed miserably. Biden claims he’ll debate Trump in September, though he got angry when pressed if he’d do it sooner. He knows he can’t, and it’s likely that Trump’s iconic image after surviving an assassin’s bullet sealed the election for him. Also, what’s this deal about Biden not needing notes or teleprompters? That’s another total lie from the next national spokesperson for Depends.

Biden touting his 59-minute presser at NATO is emblematic of the problem: it's not an accomplishment, but something that's expected from the president of the United States. It feels like the last time Biden held a presser, the New York Giants were in the Super Bowl. I'll leave this here. We're dealing with a terrible man, a psychopath, which is in keeping with the rest of this degenerate family: -- "Was [the attempted assassination of President Trump] a massive security failure?" -- Biden: "We'll see what happens."
