Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) said President Joe Biden’s “cognitive decline” is no longer a secret, saying the question is now: “What are the Democrats going to do about it?”
“It’s no longer breaking news when I tell the American people that there is something wrong with Joe Biden. Everyone can see that now. It’s not in question anymore. It’s what are the Democrats going to do about it?” Jackson told Hannity. “The natural course of any of these illnesses, I don’t know if it’s Alzheimer’s, dementia, or multi-infarct dementia. I’m not making a diagnosis, but I’m saying he has a cognitive issue related to his age. The natural course of all these illnesses is that they get worse with time. They don’t get better.”

“The White House is nothing more than an assisted living facility right now,” he continued.
While speaking with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Jackson, who served as a physician in the White House under Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump, reiterated his concern, saying the president’s cognitive decline is “an embarrassment,” “scary,” and “dangerous.”
Jackson pointed to the economy and inflation, crime, foreign affairs, the United States’s border crisis, and threats of terrorism.
“We have big issues right now that this country needs to be dealing with, and we need a commander-in-chief, and we need a head of state, that’s cognitively and physically fit to do the job, and this man is absolutely not,” Jackson said. “In the Bush Administration, we passed out presidential m and m’s. In the Obama Administration we passed out presidential kisses. In the Trump Administration and the Reagan Administration, it was presidential jellybeans. I’m assuming now if you go up you get a presidential Jell-O cup. I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s sad.”

“The Democrats are in damage control right now. They are frantic. They realize that they have made this mistake. They put this man in office and expected him to be our president for four years, and he’s not going to make it four years, I don’t think,” he added. “He’s certainly not going to make it another four years, and now they are desperately trying to figure out what do they do about this.”
At the age of 81, Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history. If elected to a second term, he would be 86 upon leaving office.
