Despite the claims from White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre that staffers struggle to keep up with President Joe Biden, it’s pretty clear that the 81-year-old is slowing down both physically and mentally.
Here is White House Press Secretary KJP laying it on thick about Joe Biden’s energy back in August when polls showed that most Americans think that he’s too old to run for re-election.
Karine Jean-Pierre lays it on thick in response to polls showing most Americans say Biden is too old to run for re-election:

She’s saying that it’s difficult to keep up with the guy with a 30-hour work week, who has spent half of his time as President on vacation, mostly schedules public events between 10am-4pm, and when he does show up in public, he shuffles along, stumbling and bumbling through the event while making major gaffes.
Who can forget how Biden: has been spotted shaking hands with the Invisible Man, recently recounted his G7 chat with the very dead President of France, forgetting that Rep. Walorski had died even though a memorial video was played at the same event, confused the Salvation Army with the Secret Service, falls asleep in public, and is constantly getting “lost” on stage. (Trump did a great impression of that last one.)
It’s quite apparent that the guy who has never been all that bright to begin with is getting dimmer by the day as he shuffles along at public appearances, relies heavily on staff-prepared note cards even when meeting with foreign leaders like Putin, mumbles incoherently through speeches and slurs when answering the pre-vetted questions from the pre-vetted press.
No wonder the White House staffers are doing their best at hidin’ Biden and stopping him from answering impromptu questions whenever they can.
Sometimes, it’s just not possible — especially when they’re trying to make the growing border crisis the fault of Trump and “MAGA Republicans”.
In a presser on Tuesday about the Dead-On-Arrival border bill with a bunch of Democrat poison pills in it, Biden actually took questions from the press.
In the rare moment, Biden responded to a question about the negotiations for the release of hostages that Hamas has held in Gaza since the October 7 terror attack that triggered the war with Israel.
While giving his answer, he couldn’t seem to remember the name of the terrorist organization.
“There is some movement, and I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, let me be choose my words—there’s some movement,” Biden said. “There’s been a response from the, uh, there’s been a response from the opposition, but um…”
Fortunately, a kindly journo was there to help him out.
“Hamas,” said a reporter on the audience.
“Yes, I’m sorry. From Hamas,” responded Biden.
You’d think that since the administration has been in constant negotiations with Hamas for the past 4 months, the President would know what the terrorist organization’s name is.
When Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, more than 1,200 Israelis were killed and around 250 were kidnapped and taken into Gaza.
During a week-long ceasefire in November, around 100 of the captives, mostly women and children, were released.
On Wednesday, EuroNews reported that of the remaining hostages, Israeli authorities have confirmed that 31 are now dead.
Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is currently working with Israel, Qatar, and Egypt on another ceasefire in order to get the remaining hostages released.
Also on Wednesday, Israeli news organization Haaretz reports that Hamas has a counter proposal.
Hamas laid out a three-phase plan to unfold over 4 1/2 months, responding to a proposal drawn up by the United States, Israel, Qatar and Egypt. All hostages would be released in exchange for hundreds of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel, including senior militants, and an end to the war.
The proposal would effectively leave Hamas in power in Gaza and allow it to rebuild its military capabilities, a scenario that Israeli leaders have adamantly rejected. President Joe Biden said Hamas’ demands are “a little over the top” but that negotiations will continue.

Biden can’t remember the name of the terrorist organization that is currently the elected leadership in Gaza that his administration is currently negotiating with.
He truly is “Clueless Joe.”
Check out Doug’s latest book, The Art of Joe: The Political Brilliance of President Biden. If you have left-leaning family members, workmates, or classmates, buy several copies and place them in common areas. Make sure you have your video camera ready for when they pick it up and thumb through it because they will be triggered which will make for a great viral video to share across social media. Also, buy a couple for the GOP NeverTrumpers that you know. Finally, both the book’s cover and the epilogue, Notable Quotable Joe are worth the price of admission. We’ve included before and after Biden on Afghanistan. Jen Psaki will no likey this book, but you will. BTW, the book is 95% bereft of any content. Just like Biden’s head.
