There was some discussion on Twitter recently about whether President Joe Biden nodded off during an Oval Office meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett. After the talk spread, some journalists, like CNN factchecker Daniel Dale, pushed back. "This 'Biden asleep' stuff is nonsense ," Dale tweeted on Saturday. But here's the thing. Watch Biden's public appearance with Bennett on this C-Span video . The president appeared exhausted, just as he appeared exhausted a day earlier when he delivered remarks on the deaths of 13 American military men and women killed by a suicide bomber during

his character base line was not super smart , original or even nice . His record of being one of the first to get hair “plugs” may be his most notable achievement . the rest is shambolic , lying and stealing

We watched him lay his head on his notebook just last week, for heavens sake. He’s going to be dead soon.

Old ain't Joe's problem.
Crooked and Stupid are his problems. And he's had them since a young age.

This is no country for a young, stupid, low IQ, buffoon Biden of forty years ago. He's still stupid and dumb with dementia now. Biden has always been a braggart stupid jerk who made bad decisions. I despise the man who has always been a worthless crook and tremendous liar.

We have constitutional provisions to remove a sitting president. Our current president is, kindly, not up to the rigors of the job, and as much as I dislike the second stringers in the succession line, we need to succeed this one properly, and quickly, to show that we are America.

Knowing the second in line to be as stupid as Biden with a cackling disorder I would possibly consider Dick Durbin at this point.

For what, #8? Most qualified communist pig? Durbin sucks just as bad as Harris, if not worse.

O.K. Tin foil hat time. I think the 'rats will pull a Spiro Agnew on us and replace the cackling concubine first. Then install either hitlery or Mikey as Vice President. Then they can deep-six bloody Biden. Either he dies in his sleep (this time they'll remember to remove the pillow), commits arkancide or is removed by the 25th amendment. They'll come up with something that keeps their hands clean.

Forget the age or tiredness. What about the dementia?

The answer to all of our problems will be the Taliban striking at the heart of D.C.. The “heroes” of 9/11 may have inadvertently stopped the reboot needed in our nation’s political class along with it’s Klingons (cling-ons … lobbyists, think tanks, etc.). Not sorry.

Biden is a feckless piece of crap...to quote the mother of a dead Kabul marine. Perfectly stated!

I watched the video several times. For me the tell was the just before opening his leg twitched. When I dose off for a 30 second drift off I get a twitch as i realize I just dozed off.

"Dr." Jill just rolls his a__ out of bed every morning and yells at him until he gets all his meds down and then runs around with a syringe full of crank to give ole' Joe a jolt when needed! She should be in jail for elder abuse! This guy can manage about 30 minutes of conscious thought per day and that those thoughts are totally evil and wrong...every time!

#15 This woman, who salivated for years at the chance of becoming first lady, gets her karma. She is nothing but an embarrassment to our country with no class, no manners and needless to say no sense of fashion or decorum. Instead she is only Nurse Ratched running around trying to put together the demented puppet in the bedroom for another day helping the men in white coats injecting him with the flavor of the day. She should be in jail.

Every President has aged beyond their years while in office. Not good for Biden whose already aged beyond his years thanks to his dementia. He won't have two terms. Odds are high he won't even last one term.

I agree with Number 6. His remarks pretty well cover the issues very well. Enough said.

The theatrics displayed on Biden's conference shown on FOX right now cannot hide the fact of his incompetency. His hollyweird staggers had him sitting at a small plastic table as he struggled to read a scripted speech on the table in front of him. Then video screens appeared near his table showing officials giving updates on their particular areas impacted by the storm. It looked like a scene from Star Trek rather than a serious Presidential Conference about this tragedy. But then the power was abruptly cut off, sparing Biden of further inept displays. ...I know hollyweird is trying to camouflage Biden's problems with communicating, but their staging of his appearances isn't helping.

What difference does it make whether he’s up to it?
The Hive Mind will keep repeating that he is and The Gullibles will keep repeating it to themselves.
Of course he’s not up to it. He couldn’t campaign. He can’t work. 50 years of being a venal politician and all he knows is how to do is to vehemently deny culpability and to tell stories only slightly tangential to reality about his successes.

Joe also had surgery for brain aneurysms back in the late 80s/early 90s. How come we never hear anything about that? It doesn't seem like a stretch to think that might be related to Joe's slow-down in recent years.

All you have to do is look at his history. He's a big talker with few accomplishments, if any. Fellow workers think of him as a screw-up. Plus, he's dishonest and a liar. His performance is no surprise for people in the know. He has not done one good thing for America, and has screwed up many good things that were done before him. He needs to be out one way or the other.

Joe also suffered a pulmonary embolism while recuperating from his brain surgery.

With one notable exception, #17. President Trump looks and acts just as vigorous today as he did when he came down the escalator in 2015.

Totally agree #24. It would be interesting to figure out what made the difference. The pre-mature aging effected Democratic and Republican Presidents alike.

Had it been Trump, would CNN have argued he wasn't sleeping?

Whatever, the American public needs to see the man they "elected" every day of his term. They need to be reminded that their voting choices matter. Biden-Harris is a bell to be hung around the neck of every Democrat and NeverTrumper and rung regularly.

I noted during the campaign that NONE of the Media asked Sleepy Joe 'The Age Question' as was asked of President Reagan.
