After giving his State of the Union speech on Thursday night, President Joe Biden joked that there were moments when he wished he was “cognitively impaired”.
Biden interacted with Congressmen in the House chamber following his speech. During the more than hour-long speech, Representative Jerry Nadler (D-NY) praised Biden’s enthusiasm, saying, “No one can doubt his cognitive abilities now.”

“I kind of wish sometimes I was cognitively impaired,” Biden jokingly replied.
During his fourth State of the Union address, President Biden engaged in multiple impromptu conversations and interactions with hecklers in an attempt to dispel reports of cognitive decline.
The president’s frequent blunders and embarrassing situations have raised questions about Biden’s age and mental state recently.
Robert Hur, the special counsel, released a report last month that described Joe Biden’s purported “poor memory,” provided a critical evaluation of the president’s mental health, and declined to bring charges against him for allegedly mishandling classified documents.
The eighty-one-year-old Biden has froze or made mistakes in recent months, such as confusing the presidents of Egypt and Mexico when discussing the Gaza War.
WATCH:
Democrats are practically in a panic over President Joe Biden, according to a significant survey, as the former president Donald Trump, who is expected to challenge him, easily won delegates in Missouri, Michigan, and Idaho on Saturday.
According to a poll conducted on Saturday by Siena College and The New York Times, Biden is now five percentage points behind former President Donald Trump. Moreover, just 83 percent of the voters who supported Biden in 2020 still do so now, with 10 percent of them now supporting Trump.

Democrats who spoke with Politico after these results were announced expressed similar feelings, comparing the state of affairs to “a slow-motion car crash” and calling the results “pretty concerning.”
