The Biden administration demands that Americans believe that President Joe Biden's mental acuity isn't in decline. It figures if it disputes the obvious often enough and loud enough, Americans will finally believe the lie. This is even more so if it has loved ones and famous faces vouch for him.

One example is his wife, first lady Jill Biden, who continues to champion Biden's overall competency and presidency despite the failure of both. Last week, she had the audacity to comment at a rally in Reno, Nevada, that “Joe isn’t just one of the most effective presidents of our lives, in spite of his age, but because of it,” according to the New York Post.

Isn't the sheer fact that the first lady would need to say such a statement admitting that there is a very real problem with the president's mental health? You have to want to be fooled to believe the charade.

And that statement holds true when applied to the 81-year-old president's recognizably frozen stature during a Saturday fundraiser at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles alongside late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and former President Barack Obama.

Biden moved from a state of engagement into what looked to be catatonic against the backdrop of Obama and Kimmel at the conclusion of the fundraiser, which netted the Biden campaign $30 million, according to CBS News.

The stark contrast among all three men's demeanors became even more evident when Obama instinctively and strategically grabbed Biden's hand and led him off the stage after about eight motionless seconds.
