Staff Reports
In a cringe-worthy display, President Joe Biden bid farewell to a press conference in Vietnam with an announcement that it was time for his bedtime and then stumbled off stage amidst the jazzy tunes in the background. At 80 years old, the president delivered a speech that lasted approximately 27 minutes at the G20 summit in Hanoi, Vietnam.

True to form, Biden’s speech was characterized by slurred speech and a noticeable drowsiness as he relied on a cheat sheet to call on reporters. Although he attempted to project strength by praising the summit as a success for America and its partners in the Indo-Pacific region, Biden’s restlessness became apparent towards the end of the presser.
In a moment of confusion, Biden turned to his staff for guidance, suggesting that he was merely following orders. This out-of-touch display revealed his lack of control and raised questions about who is actually running the show. As reporters clamored for attention, Biden deviated from the topic at hand and rambled through a series of disconnected thoughts before bluntly stating, “But I tell you what, I don’t know about you, but I’m going to go to bed.”
Rather than using humor as a defense mechanism, Biden’s attempt to make light of his advanced age only highlighted his apparent loss of mental acuity. Shortly after his peculiar bedtime announcement, Biden was hastily ushered off stage while reporters continued to shout questions. Ignoring the commotion, Biden continued speaking into his microphone even after it was turned off, further emphasizing his detachment from reality.
It is becoming increasingly evident that Biden is no longer disguising his lack of vigor and his inability to effectively perform his duties. This disconcerting image raises serious concerns about his fitness for office. Public confidence in Biden is dwindling, with polls consistently reflecting the belief of most Americans that he is too old for the job. Yet, instead of addressing these concerns seriously, Biden continues to downplay the issue by attempting to make self-deprecating jokes.
The fact is, Biden’s performance in Vietnam is far from amusing or reassuring. It is time to acknowledge the distressing reality that our president is no longer capable of carrying out the responsibilities of his office. The nation deserves strong and competent leadership, not a beleaguered figurehead who stumbles through press conferences and then shuffles off to bed as if he were a child. The situation is deeply concerning and demands our attention.
