Now Jill Biden has admitted that Sleepy Joe wasn’t fit to be president. “No matter how scathing Donald Trump and the Maga movement's treatment of Joe Biden was over the years, nothing they said quite compares to the devastation wrought by the man's own wife.For years, Biden's opponents delighted in every stumble and verbal hitch. He was Sleepy Joe, Slow Joe, The Worst President in American History, and the old man with the autopen. But this was predictable, bitter, entertaining, and honestly, a flash in the pan compared to the public humiliation now coming from his own household.Meanwhile, we were forced to watch Dr Jill prop up her incapacitated husband in what often resembled institutional elder abuse. Anyone who dared mention that this man probably shouldn't have the ability to call a nuclear strike, and that the leader of the free world was pretty clearly showing profound signs of cognitive decline, was instantly dismissed by the Biden administration and mainstream press as a crazy conspiracy theorist.”“Why expose these deeply private, agonising moments now? The answer seems to be that Dr Jill is aware that history will judge her as the ambitious driving force behind a failing presidency. By airing her doubts and showing how she left sticky notes on the bathroom mirror trying to direct foreign policy, she is trying to retroactively paint herself as the grown up in the room.Instead, she has achieved the exact opposite. She has confirmed the suspicions of her worst critics. By telling the world that she knew her husband – the president of the United States – was spent, physically and mentally, she has exposed a profound betrayal of public trust.But the ultimate betrayal is personal: Joe Biden survived five decades in the brutal arena of Washington politics, only to have his final, absolute humiliation delivered by the one person who was supposed to protect him.”
