I’m so tired of pundits pretending the media is being unfair to Biden. He literally said he was the first black woman to be vice president today, and most outlets chose not to cover it. The media has been going exceptionally easy on Biden, which is why so many Americans were shocked to hear how incoherent and rambling he’d become, even compared to Trump. The media isn’t covering this because they suddenly want to destroy Biden; they’re covering it because the floodgates have opened and they have no choice but to acknowledge it.
Listening to this for the first time, and I don’t hear him say he’s the black woman. He starts saying something, then changes mid sentence and says, “like I said, the first black woman vice president, served with a black president, first black woman chief justice”. Are you saying he says he’s also the first black woman chief justice? There’s legitimately many concerning things he has said due to his mental issues, but this is just nitpicking.
Except that’s not what he said. His exact words were:
I’m proud to be, as I said, the first Vice President…the first black woman, to serve with a Black President.
Now, do I think that means he was so confused he thought he was the country’s first Vice President, and also a black woman who served with the first black President? No, obviously he meant that he was the Vice President to the first black President, and was President with the first black woman to be Vice President.
But do I think this is another example of him being unable to follow a train of thought long enough to complete a coherent sentence? Absolutely, yes.
Yeah, and if he wasn’t on a press blitz because he went on TV and looked like a confused grandpa during a national debate, it’d be a silly flub, not another example of his cognitive decline.

That video was stupid. Confused himself with the VP or just misspoke? Silly.

In an interview with questions his team fed to the interviewer no less.
Exactly. Since the debate, he’s been exposed to very safe, very controlled media events, and he’s still underperforming. This is extremely bad.
This was inevitable. Years of gaslighting was extremely bad.
