US President Joe Biden has angrily criticised an investigation that found he mishandled top secret files and said he struggled to recall key life events.
In a surprise news briefing on Thursday evening, Mr Biden insisted: “My memory is fine.”
He slammed a claim that he could not recollect when his son died, saying: “How the hell dare he raise that?”
The inquiry found Mr Biden “wilfully retained and disclosed” classified files, but decided not to charge him.
Yeah, the problem is the Democrats have gone with him as a candidate knowing that this was a critical weakness and point of attack. Hilary Clinton was a bad candidate; Joe Biden is a bad candidate. The Democrat leadership is bad at selecting election winners.
They needed a proper open primary to select a good candidate. Obama was a great candidate, and he won the primaries in a year where the Democrat leadership had decided it was “Clinton’s turn”.
The republican party leadership is also bad at selecting election winners. Trump is trash but he does have popular support on the Republican side.
Biden is running as the “least bad” option, but with major question marks over his mental fortitude. A young candidate would mean Trump’s mental fortitude would be the real issue, but he’s getting away with being crazy and showing signs of dementia because attacking Biden’s mental state is a good distraction. Total own goal on the Democrat side. It’s not too late for Biden to step down for the good of the country and the party, but it’s getting to be if the democrat primaries advance much further.
