To be honest, for years when I watched politicians avoid answering questions by talking about completely unrelated subjects, I wondered how you could tell the difference if they were just avoiding the question or if they were demented or batshit crazy. I guess I know now.

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Part of the other concern is that-- this seems to fit into a pattern of decline that has been reported on recently. New York Times had a headline on July 2nd, "Biden's lapses are said to be increasingly common and worrisome." Here's what they wrote.
"People who've spent time with President Biden over the last few months or so said the lapses appear to have grown more frequent, more pronounced, and after Thursday d-- Thursday's debate, more worrisome. By many accounts, as evidenced by video footage, observation, and interviews, Mr. Biden is not the same today as he was even when he took office three-and-a-half years ago." Similar reporting in The Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal. Are you the same man today that you were when you took office three-and-a-half years ago?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: In terms of successes, yes. I also was the guy who put together a peace plan for the Middle East that may be comin' to fruition. I was also the guy that expanded NATO. I was also the guy that grew the economy. All the individual things that were done were ideas I had or I fulfilled. I moved on.
And so, for example, you know, "We-Well, that was true then, what's Biden done lately?" Di-you-just just see today, just announced 200,000 new jobs. We're movin' in the direction that no one's ever taken on. I know you know this from days in-- in-- in the-- in the government.
I took on big pharma. I beat them. No one said I could beat them. I took on all the things we said we got done, were told we couldn't get done. And part of it is what I said when I ran was I wanted to do three things: Restore some decency to the office, restore some support for the middle class instead of trickle down economics both from the middle out and the bottom up the way the wealthy still do fine, everyone does better, and unite the country.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: But what has all that work over the last three-and-a-half years cost you physically, mentally, emotionally?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: Well, I-- I-- I just think it cost me a really bad night, bad run, but, you know, I-- George. I have-- I'm optimistic about this country. I don't think we're a country of losers that he points out. I don't think America's in tough shape. I think America is on the cusp of breaking through in so many incredible opportunities.
In this next term, I'm gonna make sure we gotta-- straighten out the tax system. I'm gonna make sure we're in a situation where we have healthcare for all people, where we're in a position where we have-- have childcare and eldercare, free up-- and all these things.
One thing I'm proudest of is, remember when my economic plan was put forward? A lot of the mainstream economists said, "This is not gonna work." Guess what? We now have 16 Nobel laureates, 16 of 'em in economics saying that "Biden's next term would be a sig-- enor-- based on what he wants to do, enormous success." Trump's plan would cause a recession and sig-nif-- gi-- increase inflation. I've made great progress, and that's what I plan on doin'. And we can do this.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: I-- I-- I understand that, and I'm not disputing that. What I'm asking you is-- about your personal situation. Do you dispute that there have been more lapses, especially in the last several months?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: Can I run the 100 in 10 flat? No. But I'm still in good shape.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Are you more frail?
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN: No.

President Biden: I was also the guy that expended NATO
Biden admitting that the Biden admin had being expanding NATO even as far into Asia and then they wonder why China is with Russia?

He also said everyday was a cognitive test for him since he’s basically running the entire world. Any POTUS who thinks it’s America’s job to be the center of the entire planet doesn’t understand America’s intended role. Not to mention the inherent hubris.

Given that his wife, Dr. Jill, has a doctorate in education, I figured that she would have filled him in on how to cope with a noisy classroom. They had a week to prepare him for debating Trump. A review of Trump's debates with Hillary would have led them to expect Trump's tactics.
And not being in control? If he can't handle the stress of dealing with Trump being loud and obnoxious, how does he manage to deal with stress in a major internation event. Actually, it sounds like he was in the beginning stages of a Derealization and/or Depersonalization (mental health) event. And the blank/detached stare he had during the debate provides further evidence to that.
From what I am seeing, this interview didn't help Biden.
Also it looked fake. The audio didn't match up with his lip movements and at times it looked like Biden's face went fuzzy like some filter they were using messed up.
I don't think anyone will believe anything that Biden does from now on that isn't live.

I suggest you find the dissertation she wrote to get that doctorate. It was so poorly written at an elementary level. If I would have turned that in in 4th grade I would have failed, and that's not hyperbole. Biden got the university more federal money and that's the only reason she passed and has the doctor title. Honestly pedo Joe even in his senility is probably more well spoken than "Dr" Jill.

Personally, for being a lifelong parasite I hope this is his hell and he's getting what's supposed to be coming to him.
