Whether you agree with former Vice President Joe Biden’s positions or not, he’s still a man who devoted nearly 50 years to public service.
And that’s what makes it so sad… and frightening… to watch him now.
Biden has always been a self-described “gaffe machine,” known for saying the wrong thing or putting his foot in his mouth.
But what’s been happening lately with Biden feels different.
At one rally, he didn’t realize which state he was in… and he wrongly claimed he was still vice president during the 2018 Parkland, FL school shootings.
Now, at a recent campaign stop, Biden seems to struggle to remember the name of former President Barack Obama, his old boss.

The incident is typical of what many people have been seeing of Biden lately. He’s going along great one moment — and then he starts flailing.
In this clip, he appears to actually give up on trying to remember Obama’s name.
Maybe Biden is just tired… and maybe it was a simple verbal flub.
But with his poll numbers falling fast, the nearly-77-year-old Biden can’t afford too many more gaffes or questions about his age or memory.
