Not exactly representative of Middle-Class America, the Wall Street Journal has actually printed quite the honest article, hammering the Big Daddy of Big Government.
As reported by Annie Linskey and Siobhan Hughes, both of the WSJ.com (via MSN.com), the duo penned quite the telling headline of “Behind Closed Doors, Biden Shows Signs of Slipping”
I beg to differ, ladies.
When you note of Biden that he “paused for extended periods and sometimes closed his eyes for so long that some in the room wondered whether he had tuned out”, that isn’t just “slipping.”
Personally, I don’t want the guy with his finger on the nuclear button to be cognizant only when pumped full of Adderall, Ritalin, and B-12.
From the WSJ.com;
When President Biden met with congressional leaders in the West Wing in January to negotiate a Ukraine funding deal, he spoke so softly at times that some participants struggled to hear him, according to five people familiar with the meeting. He read from notes to make obvious points, paused for extended periods and sometimes closed his eyes for so long that some in the room wondered whether he had tuned out.
Last year, when Biden was negotiating with House Republicans to lift the debt ceiling, his demeanor and command of the details seemed to shift from one day to the next, according to then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and two others familiar with the talks. On some days, he had loose and spontaneous exchanges with Republicans, and on others he mumbled and appeared to rely on notes.
“I used to meet with him when he was vice president. I’d go to his house,” McCarthy said in an interview. “He’s not the same person.”
