On Tuesday, President Joe Biden gave remarks in response to the current "bipartisan" border bill introduced in the Senate over the weekend. Following his remarks, however, the 81-year-old Democrat seemed to repeatedly stumble over his words when answering questions from reporters.
When one reporter asked for an update on the hostage deal currently being negotiated between Israel, the United States, and the terrorist organization Hamas, Biden mumbled through the answer before abruptly ending all questioning and shuffling out of the room.
"This indirectly has a lot to do with the hostage deal and what's going on in the Middle East. The decision on what we do relative to Israel. The decision on what we do in terms of American funding on whether we are going to engage in the situation in Ukraine. It all goes to the question of American power. It all goes to does America keep its word? Does America move forward," Biden began before stumbling over his words.
"There is some movement, and I don't wanna, I don't wanna, let me be choose my words — there's some movement. There's been a response from the, uh, there's been a response from the opposition, but um," Biden said before being corrected by a reporter about who the "opposition," Hamas, was. "Yes, I'm sorry, from Hamas. But it seems to be a little over the top. We're not sure where it is. They're continuing negotiation right now," Biden responded.
Biden was instantly criticized for yet another senior moment while carrying out his official duties as president. "Prime example why other countries don't respect us," one user commented. "Drugs are wearing off…." commented another.
As President Biden continues to struggle with his mental sharpness, the American people see the various gaffes and senior moments almost on a daily basis. An Associated Press poll from last year found that 77 percent of Americans believe that Biden is too old to carry out another four years in the White House. By the time a hypothetical second term concludes in 2029, Biden would be 86, and throughout an entire second term, he would continue to have more senior moments that could become problematic.
WATCH:BIDEN: "There is some movement, and I don’t wanna, I don't wanna, let me be choose my words — there's some movement. There's been a response from the, uh, there's been a response from the opposition, but um..."
