For years The Gateway Pundit has reported on Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and now all of a sudden the mainstream media is questioning Biden’s mental state.
White House reporters from Fox News, CBS, CNN, ABC, Reuters, AP, Bloomberg, Newsmax, and NBC on Tuesday repeatedly grilled Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about Joe Biden’s cognitive decline following his disastrous debate performance.
Last Thursday Joe Biden crashed and burned during the highly-anticipated presidential debate against Trump after he spent several days holed up at Camp David preparing for the event.
The whole world saw Biden’s cognitive decline in real-time. The Democrat-media complex has gone to great lengths to hide Biden’s feeble state.
That all came to an end on Thursday night as a doped-up Joe Biden was unable to make a cogent point and needed Nurse Jill to guide him off stage.
One reporter point blank asked KJP if Biden has “Alzheimer’s or any form of dementia.”
“I’m going to ask something delicate and you may not like it. The President may not like to hear it if he’s watching but I think the American people need a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer. Does President Biden, at 81 years old, have Alzheimer’s, any form of dementia, or degenerative illness that may cause these sorts of lapses?” a reporter asked KJP.
“It’s a no, and I hope you’re asking the other guy the same exact question,” a visibly irritated KJP said.

CNN’s MJ Lee asked about Biden’s medical records.
CNN’s MJ Lee: “Uh — you’ve said a couple of times now that the White House has provided thorough medical records for the President. The White House released a six page summary back in February. I don’t think that was a full accounting necessarily. Um — and Dr O’Connor, in that memo, described the President as, “a healthy, active, robust 81 year old male who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.” I think that is clearly not what the majority of Americans are seeing, and we have a new poll from CBS News that says 72 percent of registered voters say the President does not have the mental and cognitive health to serve as President. So, are you saying that the majority of Americans are misguided and that they just need to trust Dr. O’Connor and take him at his word?”
As usual, KJP obfuscated.

Newsmax’s James Rosen shouted, “Is he disabled?!” “Is the President disabled?!”

Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich called KJP out for calling videos of Biden freezing “cheap fakes.”
“The administration strongly criticized the media for clips showing the President appearing to be confused, freezing at times, and you called it cheap fakes, misinformation — um, calling it deep fakes. Do you have any regret over using that language?” Jacqui Heinrich asked.
