President Joe Biden’s speech in Philadelphia caught the attention of many when a video clip surfaced showing him appearing confused and struggling to find the exit after finishing his address. Here’s the full story.
The Confused President
In the video, President Biden can be seen looking to his left before heading in that direction. However, he soon turned around and walked the other way, seemingly disoriented.
He Was Guided to Exit
Finally, the Secret Service guided him from the ground to the right stage exit.
It Went Viral
The incident sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with users expressing alarm and embarrassment.
Cognitive Decline?
Some suggested that Biden’s actions were intentional, while others worried that he might be suffering from cognitive decline.
This Is Getting Worse
One person wrote, “As I’ve said many times, it only gets worse fast. He’s so far gone.” Another user echoed this sentiment, stating, “This is embarrassing.”
His Speech Was Also Controversial
During his speech, Biden’s remarks also raised eyebrows, further fueling the discussions surrounding his fitness state.
He Made Many Slip-Ups
During his speech, Biden once again claimed that he had lowered the deficit by $1.7 Trillion.
He made statements like, “I often say, and I mean this sincerely, Wall Street — good folks down there — but they didn’t build the middle class. They didn’t build America. The middle class was built by the middle class.”
Trickle-Down Economics
He added, “I watched my dad growing up, and not a whole lot of benefit trickled down on his kitchen table as a consequence of trickle-down economics.”
Questions Surrounding His Effectiveness as a Leader
These slip-ups fueled debates over whether President Biden’s age and possible cognitive decline could impair his effectiveness as a leader.
What Is He Talking About?
Several Twitter users shared their thoughts on the incident.
One person added humor to the situation by writing, “He’s fine. This is fine,” while another wrote, “Biden just said he watched his dad suffer under ‘trickle-down economics.’ In the 1950s? Wut?”
This Is Not Normal
“This isn’t normal. Why is anyone pretending otherwise?” tweeted one person, while another added, “Guy needs a guide dog to get him off the stage.”
