New Low for Biden's Mental Condition
This is getting serious, folks. Biden’s senility, dementia, whatever you want to call it, is dangerous, and is also leading to extremely embarrassing situations, and even his staff is starting to “play on” his fragile grip on reality as he dodders his way through the day.
It seems a measure of White House staff (rumor is that it was elements of Jen Psaki’s support team) taught Biden a “Knock-knock” joke about a month ago. Their intention was that Joe would enter a folksy mood and tell it to Jill, or some close confidant, in the near term. The joke had a built-in “backfire” that went completely over Joe’s head and staff had quite a giggle teaching him the joke and imagining his telling of it. Staff quickly forgot about this little scheme in the routine course of the plethora of gaffes and verbal stumbles dispensed by Biden.
But we now know how Biden opened his call with Putin - the second “Ukraine” call of recent days.
Joseph Biden: ‘Good morning President Putin.’
Vladimir Putin: ‘Good morning President Biden, how are you?’
Biden: ‘Oh, you know. This morning I bent down to tie my shoe and I thought, “What else can I do while I’m down here?”’
Putin: ‘I don’t understand…’
Biden: ‘You know. When you get older, it’s like when you go down the stairs, maybe to the basement, and on that trip down there to do something, um, down there, um, where was I going?…’
Putin: ‘May I ask you to focus, Mr. President?’
Biden: ‘Wait! Before I forget, I have a knock-knock joke for you! Are you familiar with knock-knock jokes, Mr. President?’
Putin, with exasperation: ‘I am familiar with that structure, yes.’
Biden: ‘Knock-knock.’
Putin, sighing: ‘Who is there?’
Biden: ‘Shit.’
Putin: ‘Sh… Shit? Shit who?’
Biden: ‘Shit fer brains!!’
Putin, cringing: That’s, that’s… funny. Do you have a written agenda, Mr. President? May we get down to businesses?
