How apparent is the president’s Parkinson’s drawback? One New York specialist, Dr. Tom Pitts, nailed it when he instructed NBC Tuesday that “I may have identified him from throughout the mall.”
Frankly, it doesn’t take a specialised doctor to do this.
A layman’s look at Joe Biden — together with his vacant stare, shuffling gait and frozen face — would inform anybody able to primary commentary that one thing critical is flawed.
“I’m a Democrat,” Pitts went on. “It’s identical to — this man just isn’t a tough case. I see him 20 instances a day in clinic.”
Regardless of this, the Biden administration nonetheless continues to dodge, duck and obfuscate across the points.
Its newest laughable effort?
The pretense that Parkinson’s skilled Dr. Kevin Cannard’s eight visits to the White Home in as many months had nothing to do with Biden’s neurological well being.
Chief flack Karine Jean-Pierre even stated that Cannard’s assembly with Biden’s private doc Kevin O’Connor was by some means not involved with Joe’s well being, solely to have O’Connor later admit it was (forcing her to confess the identical).
What’s as laughable — and much more worrying — is the president’s refusal to take a diagnostic cognitive check and make the outcomes public.
Joe tried to brush the difficulty off in his interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulus. He insisted that he has “a cognitive check every single day. The whole lot I do. I’m not simply operating a marketing campaign, I’m operating the world.”
Sorry, Joe. If that’s the “check,” the outcomes aren’t promising: Simply take a look at Gaza or Ukraine — or inflation or the border.
As Pitts additionally identified, Biden’s refusal to deal truthfully with the general public on this difficulty recollects how authoritarian leaders behave as they deny the plain.
For the nice of the nation — and to finish his personal humiliation — Joe must take an early night-night from the presidency itself.
