Biden’s health condition, his main obstacle to the election

whoever wins will Elections on November 5the United States will be governed by an 80-year-old man. If the winner is Donald Trump – who just turned 78 yesterday – he will remain president until age 86.Joe BidenWill leave office with 87.

The United States will not only be the leading world power. It will also be the country with the oldest head of government. In fact, in 2020, after the resignation of the Malaysian, it already is mahathir mohamad At 89 years old. It could be argued that the US is a presidential system, meaning that its maximum leader combines the functions of head of state and government. In that case, there is one country that beats the US: Cameroon, whose president, Paul Biyaturns 91 in February. Of course, Biya has been in power for over 40 years amid persistent accusations of undemocratic practices, so he’s not the best example.

The ages of the candidates for the White House show that the political gerontocracy that rules the United States is in excellent health. Another thing, naturally, is the health of the politicians who are part of that gerontocracy. This is a complicated subject, especially because of the tremendous physical, mental, and psychological effort required to hold the most powerful and complex position of all: the presidency. This is a particularly serious problem for Joe Biden, whose mental health condition He’s worried about his constant public gaffes and the fact that he’s in the White House Armored

. His campaign rallies are typically very small. His advisers say it is to maintain the intimate and direct nature of these meetings. But the contrast with Trump, who loves crowds, is clear.

These are questions of internal politics. And, moreover, they are not spoken of publicly. Even Republican opposition politicians do not use the president’s health as an electoral weapon, although institutional accounts such as the Republican National Committee do. Some of them, such as this week’s video in which Biden appeared to sit in an imaginary chair next to long markor he has lost his sight G-7 family photowhen he was prime minister of Italy Giorgia Meloni He had to be guided back to the group, they are fake. But the others don’t. Biden’s wife was also present at a recent tribute to the heroes of Normandy. Jillwhom many accuse – with small mouths – of being responsible for the president’s decision to run for a second term. According to this rumor – which is unproven – Jill Biden wants to remain First Lady, and has convinced Joe to stay in politics despite his lack of enthusiasm. In addition, the conviction of his son Hunter is an additional psychological blow for Biden, who has always taken pride in his status as a family man.

as part of that shieldBiden barely gives interviews or press conferences, when he does it’s under extremely controlled circumstances. And yet there are reasons to doubt the president’s mental abilities. He has been photographed several times at press conferences Chop Which contains not only the answers – something that is not unusual – but also the names of the reporters he is going to give the stage to. The White House refused to allow Biden to give the interview new York Times This is one of the main factors in starting the fierce war waged by the New York newspapers, which are the traditional defenders of the Democratic Party and the White House. He new York Times

has turned against Biden, with An editorial position that has angered many DemocratsFor whom the leading newspaper in the United States is treating the President the same as Trump, despite the fact that Trump never tried to steal the election.

The electoral reflection of Biden’s problems with age goes far beyond that new York Times. In February, an NBC television poll showed that 62% of voters believed the president “lacks the physical and mental health to serve a second term”That compared to 36% who thought this way about Trump, whose mistakes are also spectacular but seem to be the complete opposite of Joe Biden.

Your brain works faster than your tongue

Where the current president appears lost, the candidate does the exact opposite, mixing ideas and phrases that are often unconnected, but which give the impression that his mind is working faster than his tongue. The same thing happens with your actions. Biden it seems he can’t walk. Trump moves fast. And, when he takes the wrong exit — which is often — he leaves at full speed. Either way, the percentage of Americans who believe Biden’s health is a problem is as serious as Trump’s legal proceedings.

However, the White House has said that everything is going well. “Biden’s head is absolutely fine”said a man who meets him every fortnight or so on Monday this week. “What happens happens Physically he is older“, he admitted. It is undeniable. Biden has experienced a great physical decline in the White House. Also has a motor problem that causes him to lose his footing and is in constant danger of falling. This is something that causes panic among his team, who fear that the president will trip on the White House lawn or in any hallway during a summit with consequences that will be greater. Solitude.And, with it, more rumors.

The truth is that Biden has always been a first-rate mess. And a man capable of combining the friendliness of a born streetwalker with enormous “limits,” as when in 2008 he referred to his then-rival for the White House, Barack Obama

as “the first clean black candidate I’ve seen,” which could be construed to mean that the other candidates are not clean or have no criminal record. You pick the insult. Biden was often considered the only candidate in the Obama White House The Lost FoolAn idea that the president himself was responsible for emphasizing with his phrase, in 2020, when the possibility of the current president being nominated as the Democratic candidate for the White House was qualified with a brutal “never underestimate Joe’s ability to screw everything up.”

But the question now is if Biden goes blank, if he doesn’t know where he is or if he gets lost. The president shakes hands with the same person twice. Or they shake his hand once and three seconds later he puts himself back into shaking position. His ability to confuse names, dates, morning, noon and night is legendary. Also for Confuse Ukraine, Gaza… and Iraq. “There’s the kid,” he called the then Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison, while announcing AUKUS, a nuclear agreement between the US, Great Britain and that Oceanian nation, at a joint press conference on September 15, 2021.
