A new report from The Wall Street Journal has revealed the extent of President Biden’s cognitive struggles. The news outlet interviewed 45 people, both Democrats and Republicans, about recent interactions with the President; Biden is clearly in decline.

The 81-year-old POTUS’ cognitive abilities have come under intense scrutiny as voters more vocally express concern over Joe’s obvious public gaffes.

From The Wall Street Journal:

The 81-year-old Biden is the oldest person to hold the presidency. His age and cognitive fitness have become major issues in his campaign for a second term, both in the minds of voters and in attacks on him by Republicans. The White House and top aides said he remains a sharp and vigorous leader.

Some who have worked with him, however, including Democrats and some who have known him back to his time as vice president, described a president who appears slower now, someone who has both good moments and bad ones.

For much of his career, Biden enjoyed a reputation on Capitol Hill for being a master negotiator of legislative deals, known for his detailed knowledge of issues and insights into the other side’s motivations and needs—and for hitting his stride when the pressure was on. Over the past year, though, with Republicans in control of the House, that reputation has diminished.

In addition to extensive interviews, The WSJ highlighted several recent events in which President Biden appeared to be struggling.

“You couldn’t be there and not feel uncomfortable,” said one person who attended a meeting on Ukraine in January. “I’ll just say that.”

“What you see on TV is what you get,” said Sen. James E. Risch, an Idaho Republican, who attended the meeting but shared only his general impression of meetings with Biden. “These people who keep talking about what a dynamo he is behind closed doors—they need to get him out from behind closed doors, because I didn’t see it.”
