Former Vice President Joe Biden continues to raise concerns about his mental and physical capabilities as he continues his campaign for the presidency. In a recent string of events, Biden’s incoherence and strange behavior have been on full display, leaving voters and critics questioning his fitness for office.
On Thursday, Biden made headlines for insulting voters in Iowa and appearing to mock the “March for Life” event. He also confused and surprised audiences when he claimed to have taken a picture with someone in the audience, only to realize the person was not present and it was just a figment of his imagination.

But the real cause for concern came on Friday during a meeting with the U.S. Conference of Mayors at the White House. In addition to his usual slurring and strange stories, Biden was seen randomly saluting people who were not even in the military. It’s a behavior that has become increasingly common and has left many wondering about his mental state.
During his speech, Biden made a puzzling comment about why it’s better to marry someone with five sisters. According to Biden, one of the five sisters will always love you, implying that the others may not. It’s a strange and questionable statement that has raised eyebrows and caught the attention of the public.

But perhaps the most concerning moment of the event came when Biden attempted to speak about Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg. Instead of saying his name correctly, Biden seemed to say “Boot-ey Judge.” Many also believe they heard Biden say “My wife Is gonna sh*t,” or something along those lines. This is just the latest in a series of gaffes and slip-ups from the former Vice President that have left people questioning his ability to lead the nation.
Despite his team’s best efforts to convince the public of his vigor and capability, it seems that many are not buying it. Biden’s bizarre and incoherent behavior, coupled with his slurring and confusing statements, continue to cast doubt on his mental and physical fitness.
It’s even more concerning to consider that Biden has announced his intentions to run for re-election in 2024. If he were to win, he would be nearly 86 years old by the end of his second term. This raises questions about his ability to handle the taxing and demanding role of the presidency, both mentally and physically.

As the 2020 election draws closer and the race for the Democratic nomination heats up, the focus on Biden’s mental and physical state will only intensify. It’s important for voters to carefully consider these concerns before casting their votes in the primaries and eventual general election.
In the meantime, Biden’s team must address these concerns and provide a solid explanation for his strange behavior and slurring. The American people deserve transparency and honesty from their leaders, and it is imperative that Biden’s team addresses these issues head-on.
For now, the future remains uncertain as to whether Biden will ultimately become the Democratic nominee and potentially the next President of the United States. But with each strange and concerning moment, it becomes increasingly clear that his mental and physical capabilities will be closely scrutinized by voters and critics alike.
