The whole Ukraine story didn't stick. Nor did the sexual harassment BS. Joe was too squeaky clean, so they had nothing left but his age and perceived diminished faculties, which was pretty ridiculous considering Trump's erratic and unstable behavior. If anyone showed signs of early onset dementia, it was Trump, not Biden.

With his world rapidly unraveling, he is going to spiral downwards at record speed and he'll probably be very much alone.

A clone, being blackmailed by Trump and doing what Trump tells him, Trump in disguise, Trump wearing Biden's face, a robot programmed by Trump....

Just a few of the Trump-didnt-fail-us theories I've seen. They can't believe Trump's not in charge, so now everything Biden is doing is actually what Trump wants done.

The learned "doctors" on the forum have declared him to be suffering from dementia. Their other popular claim is that Biden has said that nothing could be done about Covid.

Tried to tell me he saw on the “news” Joe stumble and fall on the Capitol steps and if his Secret Service agents had not been nearby to catch him, he would have fallen all the way down the steps.

I just laughed and said you need to find some real news not that OAN made up crap

I said Joe is obviously in way better shape than trump.

7. No, it isn't. I've run across it in the last week just doing quick checks of Newsmax and RW talk

radio, including Hannity's show.

It was brought up on Newsmax during an insane panel discussion of how Biden really isn't working hard, unlike Trump, who worked even while golfing.

Uh-huh.

One of the panelists mentioned that Biden working very few hours (which they'd earlier said was dangerous considering all the challenges facing the country) might actually be a good thing considering his declining mental abilities...and the rest of the panel seemed to agree with that.

Hannity was talking about playing examples of what he considered Biden's mental failures, and how he kept adding to those.

And I heard it mentioned on other RW radio shows.

It's still an article of faith with RWNJs.

I do like to keep track of what they're talking about, though.

And sometimes it's inadvertently amusing, like the talk of how hard Trump worked.

One of their main talking points since the election has been that Biden isn't in control of his agenda, that he's just a puppet for AOC and Bernie Sanders and other Dems always described as socialists if not communists.

RW hosts and pundits are very determined to stamp out any thoughts their listeners might have that Biden isn't an extremist and does want to unify the country.

They're also claiming Biden wants to forgive much more student debt than he's actually proposed, trying to use that as a wedge issue, class warfare to rile up people without college degrees against the liberal elite.

I still see digs at Biden's mental fitness in comments sections in multiple platforms. The flying monkeys will never stop parroting this bullshit, no matter how much evidence there is that he's still sharp as a tack. It's just like the birther crap that they still believe. They don't want to believe the truth, because they're happy in their own warped reality, and they are not even capable of absorbing any evidence to the contrary.
