In the days since his State of the Union address, Joe Biden continues to look worse, and I have to wonder if anyone in the White House is noticing because it’s hard to understand how or why they are letting him embarrass himself this way.
On Monday, Biden flew to New Hampshire for an “official” presidential visit to Goffstown, to discuss “lowering costs for American families,” and to say it was a disaster is an understatement.
“Last night — not long ago, my buddy John McCain passed away,” he said at one point during his speech.
McCain certainly didn’t pass away last night. So I suppose it’s a good thing that Biden corrected himself by saying “not long ago” in reference to McCain’s passing, but even that suggests that he doesn’t remember when McCain died, which was August 2018, nearly six years ago. “Not long ago” is obviously a subjective measurement, but I suspect that Biden, who nearly said that McCain passed away “last night,” thinks he still passed away more recently than he actually did.
