Joe Biden Says Women Are 'Raped By Their Brothers And Sisters,' Loses Train Of Thought
The debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump got off to a flying start on Thursday night.
The 81-year-old Biden came out hopped up and raring to go, opening with an incredible series of disjointed thoughts, including one where he said he created "15,000 new jobs."
It got worse from there.
Biden attempted to answer one question before rambling off on nonsensical, unintelligible tangents, before finishing by saying he had "beat Medicare."
When talking about abortion, Biden defended his position by saying that there are "a lot of young women being raped by their in-laws, by their spouses, brothers & sisters," who are trying to get abortions.
It's unclear if Biden was referring to women being raped by their transgender "sisters" and becoming pregnant, or if he's unaware of how reproductive biology works.
Trump may have had the line of the night when discussing the border. Biden again started rambling unintelligible gibberish, and when Trump was given his time to respond, said "I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don't think he knows what he said either."
Speaking of the border, Biden at one point claimed that the Border Patrol had endorsed him. In a real-time fact check, the Border Patrol Union official X account posted "To be clear, we never have and never will endorse Biden."
Joe Biden Looks, Sounds Unfit To Run A Small Restaurant
Biden's performance on the substance, repeating several debunked hoaxes, including the "very fine people" lie about Charlottesville, has been atrocious in and of itself.
But it's his unblinking, open-mouthed stare, his rambling incoherence, soft, almost unintelligible voice and disconnect from reality that was even more concerning. As OutKick founder Clay Travis said, "We don't need to see any more of this debate. The only question we should be debating is whether the 25th amendment should be put in place immediately. Joe Biden isn't fit to be president now, much less for four more years."
And he's absolutely right. Biden's mental decline has been obvious for several years, but seeing him forced to speak and act in real time was devastating for his reelection hopes.
