Biden Denies Allegations
The President counters these claims by affirming his memory is fine and, despite his advanced age, he is fully aware of his actions. "I have good intentions. I'm an older man, and I know what I'm doing," he said, emphasizing that he is the one who "got this country [the United States] back on its feet."
At 81 years old, Biden is preparing to run for another term as president. The allegations of memory issues pose a challenge for him in winning over voters.
"My memory is fine. Take a look at what I've accomplished since I became president. None of you thought I could get many of these things done. How did I manage that?" Biden defended.
Yet Another Misstep
The controversy surrounding President Biden and his handling of classified documents has been officially resolved. There will be no prosecution for Biden taking confidential national security documents with him in 2017. This information was released by the special prosecutor in his report on Thursday, according to PAP (Polish Press Agency). However, this conclusion hasn't put an end to the president's troubles. Critics point to his gaffes as indications of his unsuitability to serve as the nation's leader.
In a recent televised speech, Biden confused the president of Egypt, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, with the president of Mexico. "I initially thought that Mexico's president Sisi was reluctant to open the border to allow humanitarian materials entry. After speaking to him, I convinced him to open the gate," he said, confusingly referencing the Egypt border.
