By now, the whole world knows that Old Joe Biden, who is ostensibly still the president of the United States, is in the throes of a steep cognitive decline. The whole world, that is, with the exception of his would-be successor, Kamala Harris. The question hardly matters now in terms of the executive branch, as everyone also knows that Old Joe isn’t in charge anyway. It does matter, however, as an indication of the honesty, or outrageous lack thereof, of the political and media establishment. And now they’ve been caught lying about this yet again.
Harris was asked during an NBC interview last week: “Can you say that you were honest with the American people about what you saw in those moments with President Biden as you were with him again and again, repeatedly, in that time?” Kamala tried to bluster her way through as if the question itself were absurd. “Of course,” she said, “Joe Biden is, uh, an extremely accomplished, um, eh, eh, experienced, and, um, and, and capable in every way that anyone would want of their president. Absolutely.”
NEW: Kamala Harris’ voice gets oddly high after being cornered during an NBC interview about Biden’s mental decline.
Harris started bumbling after being asked about her own judgment regarding her apparent failure to notice Biden’s cognitive decline.

Nevertheless, the reporter persisted: “You never saw anything like what happened at the debate night behind closed doors with him?” Harris, her voice getting higher, responded: “It was a bad debate. People have bad debates. He is absolutely —”
“But that’s the reason why you’re here and he’s not running for the top of the ticket,” the reporter shot back. To that, Harris said: “Well, you’d have to ask him if that’s the only reason why.”
“What do you think?” the reporter asked. Harris replied: “I am running for president of the United States. I speak with not only sincerity, but with a, a, a, a real firsthand account of watching him do this work. I have no reluctance in saying that. No, of course I don’t.”
She should. The New York Post reported Wednesday that Biden “struggled to remember basic words — or even keep his feet — at campaign fundraisers more than a year prior to dropping out of the 2024 race, with witnesses describing him as ‘frighteningly awful’ and resembling a ‘senile grandfather,’ a new book has revealed.”
Yes, you knew that and I knew that well before a year ago, but remember, that was during the time when Harris and other Biden regime officials were insisting on a routine basis that Biden was as sharp as a tack, with the energy of a man half his age, and that when the cameras were off and they were working over some tough problem, Old Joe would lead the pack with incisive questions and unique insights and outlast them all as he worked into the night for the common good.
Yeah, it was a big load of hooey when they said it, and it looks even worse now that Democrats have nothing to lose by spilling the tea about the putative dynamo in the Oval Office. “At a Silicon Valley fundraiser in June 2023, the commander in chief ‘could not wait to sit down and only took two pre-arranged questions,’ Bob Woodward quotes a Democratic donor as saying in ‘War.’” Yes, Bob Woodward is hardly an unimpeachable source, and this could all be propaganda to silence the We-Were-Better-Off-With-Joe crowd, but over the past four years, we’ve seen innumerable examples of Biden’s incapacity, only to be told that he was fit as a fiddle and that we should not trust our lying eyes.
Now, however, the cat is out of the bag: “During a different event that same month at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York, Biden could not recall the word for ‘veteran,’ and pleaded with the crowd for help describing a person who has ‘served in the military.’”
Some of those who met Biden at various events described the experience of trying to engage the alleged president in conversation as “painful.” At one fundraiser, an attendee recounted, “he never completed a sentence. He would start to talk about something, jump somewhere else. He told the same story three times in exactly the same way and it meandered so much… Frankly, my impression was there were times it was as though we didn’t exist. He was just rambling and talking as to what came into his head.”
That sounds like Old Joe. Or, as Kamala Harris would have us believe, that sounds like a man who is “capable in every way that anyone would want of their president.” But give Kamala a break: she may not be lying. She may really regard Old Joe as capable since her own capabilities are not significantly better than Biden’s.
Gordon says
I believe her. Looking through her lazy, low IQ lens it may appear to her that Biden is cognitive dynamo workhorse.
David Ray says
The fact that the cackling bitch didn’t ever show up to the 1st gov’t job that Willow Brown gave her (for services rendered) means you have a point.
Ben Shapiro listed the topics she was rated on, and they were in the toilet. For example; she got a “1” rating on returning phone calls, as it’s difficult to call people back when you’re never at the office.
She had to revise her “100” prosecutorial cases down to less than 50.
It was more around 5 – and she never thundered away at the accused.
How could she have? “Passage of time”, and “unburdened by what has been” doesn’t exactly resonate in a court room.
The research in her lackluster book & other materials was plagiarized from other sources. Actual research isn’t her ambition, nor her ability (nor Biden’s).
She’s exceptionally stupid & lazy, so when the press insisted she wasn’t the Border Czar – they inadvertently had a point.

Kamala Harris: Trollop of San Fran Cisco: ~Never met a perp, She wouldn’t set free, no MATTER THE
CRIME! A-moral, criminal mind….[ no wonder she fits this Demo’rat form so well!] The entire DNC, is a
writhing, slimy, odor reeking filth of what it once was! It all started with slick perverted Willie, & his
criminal wife…then Homo-bama, & his questionable “wife’…Big Mike”? { Gynecology exam needed
here}…Then the criminal that put “Al CAPONE TO SHAME”: Joe Biden &, his family of crime, sex, &
lap tops! DNC, corrupted our FBI, & DOJ! { Now, they are trying for the SCOTUS!….THEN?…we are
*FINIS*} Bath House Barry Homosexuality, & “FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE” Has almost ended this
Nation!
Jeff Bargholz says
She never met a street corner she wouldn’t work.
Rob A says
What other choice does Kammy have? Even with his mental infirmity, Biden is still smarter than Kammy and Biden is, was and will always be a lowbrow klutz.
William Wallace says
IN his present state of decline, Joe is still smarter than she is and has a better grasp of an issue…which isn’t saying much for the dumbest man to ever sit in both of those offices
Rob A says
He’s definitely smarter than pantry chef Harris the word salad queen!
Jeff Bargholz says
What does she see anyway, on her back with her legs spread? How a ho as ugly as her ever got ahead in life is beyond me. Old “Downtown” Willie Brown isn’t exactly a good looking guy so he was probably desperate for the head jobs.
BLSinSC says
Imagine if this was PRESIDENT TRUMP and Pence we’re discussing – the Military would be taking over to make sure Our Nation is secured. But then Our CURRENT Military Leaders are no better than the biden/harris bunglers!
Rob A says
Several of my neighbors are retired military officers and what they tell me is that is was Obama who cashiered most of the warriors out of the top ranks of the US military officer corps and replaced them with politically correct careerist bureaucrats (aka “pencil pushers.”)
FYI:
In the US Navy, we had a term for the careerist bureaucrat types. We called them Lifers: “Lazy Inefficient F**k ups Expecting Retirement.”
Spurwing Plover says
Sounds as always delusional and demented as Biden the Blunder
Kathy S says
I was trained and worked with people who suffered from dementia for over seven years. I could ALWAYS tell how acute they were bc there’s a certain, squinty LOOK their eyes get.
Biden definitely HAS THAT APPEARANCE!
EVERY SINGLE PERSON who’s kept him in thr arguably the most important post in the world should be brought up on ELDER ABUSE charges!! The man is despicable, with all the pay for play, etc. Now he’s just PITIABLE.
Kaycee says
That is what I have been saying for two or more years now, especially his wife, the esteemed Dr. Jill – charge her for elder abuse.
Jeff Bargholz says
More like vegetable abuse.
Kasandra says
Well, Kamala could say (all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding) that she never saw anything wrong, inviting the question “Then why are you here as the candidate?”. Or she could say ” Yeah, he’s been a train wreck for years and we all saw it” and invite the questions, “Then why did you lie about it and why didn’t you invoke the 25th Amendment?”. Also, if she says this we’d quickly be deluged with leaks from the White House on how stupid, lazy, and nasty she really is. What’s a girl to do? Seems like going with the former is a lot less harmful to her candidacy and here we are.
Onzeur Trante says
He’s so capable in fact that she doesn’t want him to campaign for her.
Daniel Nicholson says
Why don’t the democrats do what they usually do and lie? They could simply state that while he is currently cogent enough to do his job those of us closest to him can see that he would not be able to function for a full term. Of course it’s all a lie but it’s more feasible that what they have been saying.
