Joe Biden had an utter meltdown on live TV. Making matter worse, the former vice-president blasted a black reporter who caught him in a huge lie about his cognitive testing. “Are you a junkie?” Biden asked. Now, his campaign is feverishly attempting to do damage control, but it was too late. Americans torched him. You’ll love this.
Joe Biden had a meltdown over a question about whether or not he has taken a cognitive test, asking an interviewer whether he would pass a drug test and stumbling over his words several times in the course of one minute.
During an event with the National Association of Black Journalists, CBS News’ Errol Barnett asked if Biden has taken a test that would assess his mental fitness, and Biden snapped, “No, I haven’t taken a test! Why the hell would I take a test? C’mon, man!”
The reporter also reminded Biden he had confirmed in June during a press event that he gets cognitive tests all the time. The life-long politician then tried to bully the journalist to avoid additional questions.
Biden challenged Barnett, “That’s like saying you— before you got in this program— if you take a test where you’re taking cocaine or not, what do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?”
Then, poor Joe’s interview only got crazier proving this guy has no business running for dog catcher, let alone the president of the United States.
The presumptive presidential nominee went on to boast of his mental acuity and readiness to debate Trump — but stumbled with word order, word choice, and pronunciation multiple times in the same sentences.
The former vice-president lets out a fake laugh when the reporter tells him the president has been tested and boasts about his mental acuity.
“Well, if he can’t figure out the difference between an elephant and a lion, I don’t know what the hell he is talking about,” Biden said.
“Did you watch that—c’mon man!” Biden adds looking confused. “I know you’re trying to goad me. But I mean I am so forward-looking to have an opportunity to sit with the president or stand with the president in the debates.”
“There’s gonna be plenty of time,” Biden declares. “And by the way, as I joke with him, you know, oh, I shouldn’t say it. I’m probably gonna say something I shouldn’t say.”
“Anyway, I am uh, I am uh, very willing to let the American people judge my phy-phy-physical and mental f-f-fitness,” Biden stuttered as the video abruptly cuts off.

“Apparently Racist Biden is not aware that most job applicants today are required to take a drug test. Of course, Biden NEVER had a real job. (Nor has his son),” tweeted Twitter user “Robert.”

In May, Biden caused controversy when he told Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne tha God that “you ain’t black” if voters go for Trump.
“If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black,” Biden said.
“It don’t have nothing to do with Trump, it has to do with the fact — I want something for my community,” the radio host shot back.

Biden claiming he has not taken a cognitive test is a reversal from a statement he made in June.
“I’ve been tested and I’m constantly tested,” Biden responded when he was asked by a reporter about a mental assessment.
“All you’ve got to do is watch me, and I can hardly wait to compare my cognitive capability to the cognitive capability of the man I’m running against,” he said.
Former White House Physician Dr. Ronny Jackson has said President Trump “aced” a cognitive assessment in 2018.
Biden is now refusing to attend the Democrat National Convention claiming “coronavirus concerns.”

His campaign knows their nominee would have to make a live speech and be subjected to many interviews. They need to keep him away from the public and in the basement as long as possible. What more do Americans need to know? Joe Biden is utterly unfit to become the most powerful leader of the free world.
