    Democrats worried after Biden’s bizarre claims in a radio interview even after the questions were vetted by his team

    Synopsis

    Despite being provided with the questions in advance, Joe Biden is reported to have messed up during the interview to two radio channels. He apparently made some bizarre claims and was yet again found to be fumbling. This only adds to the concerns of the Democratic party who are seeking his ouster ahead of the US Presidential Election in November.

    Biden dismisses age questions in interview as he tries to salvage reelection effortAP
    In a show hosted by the CNN, two radio presenters who got an opportunity to interview US President Joe Biden expressed their surprise that the president could not answer even questions that were pre-approved by his team. The president had the questions given to him before the interview and yet he could not answer coherently. This just adds to a growing number of media reports that have suggested a ‘cognitive decline’ in the US President. A Philadelphia radio show host said that Biden’s team had fed her questions before the interview. She said that the president made certain bizarre claims during the interview. This has been reported by the New York Post.

    Biden’s bizarre answers:

    While speaking to Victor Blackwell who is the host of CNN’S “First of all”, Andrea Lawful-Sanders said that her interview was expected to boost Biden’s approval rating among the Blacks and other panicking supporters. She said that Biden’s team had given her a list of eight questions to lead the discussion. She is the host of “The Source” on WURD.

    Biden stumbled many times and made bizarre claims such as that he was the first Black woman to serve with a Black President. He also said that he was the first president who got elected statewide in the state of Delaware when he was a kid. He also repeatedly stumbled in a second radio interview. He was on “The Earl Ingram Show” in Milwaukee.

    Clarification issued by Biden's team:

    Biden’s team dismissed reports that it had setup the questions before the interview. A spokesperson for Biden said that it is a normal practice for the president’s team to suggest some talking points or topics for the hosts. They also added that the host was free to ask other questions apart from those that were suggested.

    ABC Interview:

    Biden also participated in an interview with ABC News. His participation in the interview only raised further questions regarding this health and his continuation as the Democratic Party’s official presidential nominee. He is yet to secure this nomination.
