Americans have been suspicious about Biden’s mental health for years. But now there’s irrefutable evidence.
Because Joe Biden’s mental breakdown was caught on camera and now Democrats are panicking.
President Joe Biden’s blunder in claiming to have met with a long-dead French leader immediately after assuming office as commander in chief in the White House has gone viral yet again.
While delivering remarks in Las Vegas on Sunday, ahead of the Nevada primary this week, Biden alluded to a G-7 summit in the United Kingdom and a NATO leaders’ conference in June 2021, at which a discussion concerning the January 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol was reportedly brought up.
“I sat down and I said, ‘America’s back’ and Mitterrand from Germany — I mean from France looked at me and said, ‘You know why — how long you back for?’” Biden recalled, invoking François Mitterrand, the former president of France, according to a widely shared post to X by National Pulse editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam along with a clip of the remarks.
WATCH: Joe Biden says he recently met with “Mitterand from Germany.”

One obvious flaw in his recollection is that Mitterrand, France’s president from 1981 to 1995, died in 1996, about 25 years ago.
Emmanuel Macron was France’s president when the G-7 met in 2021.
And that is not the first time Biden has suggested that he interacted with Mitterrand during the same meeting.
In 2022, Biden repeated a similar narrative, with the same Mitterrand error.
In both cases, the White House versions of Biden’s speech had Mitterrand’s name scratched out and replaced with Macron.
Biden has a history of gaffes, but as he seeks a second term in the White House, those concerns have grown, spurred by the president’s age, his tendency to lose his line of thought while speaking, and incidents recorded on camera in which he has tripped or fallen down.
Biden has gained poor press for telling lies, including repeating an exaggerated home fire event.
A national poll published by NBC News in June of last year revealed growing concern about Biden’s fitness to serve, with more than two-thirds of registered voters — 68% — expressing moderate to major concerns about him “not having the necessary mental and physical health” to be president.
Nikki Haley, 52, is competing for the Republican presidential nomination. She began her campaign last February by advocating for rigorous mental fitness testing for legislators over 75 years old.
In an appeal to voters who are anticipating a hypothetical 2020 rematch between former President Donald Trump, who is now 77, and Biden, who is now 81, Haley has referred to them as “grumpy old men.”
Unfortunately for Haley, far more people think Biden is unfit for office than Donald Trump.
And you don’t need a poll to tell you that.
Just look at Haley’s performance against Trump.
