Is Joe Biden a ‘10am-4pm’ president? New details emerge on how the White House has been active in shielding the president

Is Joe Biden a 10am-4pm president? The US President is seen to be absent minded and a clear cognitive decline seems to be visible beyond these hours, according to a report by Axios. Many of the people noticed the cognitive decline in recent times, especially after the first US Presidential Debate, while many others in White House have been dealing with this issue since the past few years. The White House team has rubbished many of the reports mentioning the incumbent president’s declining cognitive abilities. This report comes at a time when a YouGov survey has found that 72% of the respondents said that Biden should not contest the upcoming US Presidential election in November.

Cognitive decline:

The Axios report stated that the President is only active from 10am-4pm and he is unable to focus after these hours. He is also seen not be healthy during his foreign visits. This is a working time of only six hours. Further, it has also been reported that there are shorter stairs when he boards the Air Force One.

His proclivity for appearing lost and wandering off has also been in the news. During his recent visit to Italy for the G-7 summit, he was seen wandering away during a group photo session before the Italy Prime Minister gently nudged him. The President is also having certain physical health challenges.

White House is working overtime:

According to the same report, many personnel who are part of the presidential staff at the White House have been aware of the president’s declining health. This has been well known to people in the White House for the past few years. Further, many have been working to reduce the scrutiny on Biden and helping avoid many of the gaffes. It was earlier reported that Jill Biden was upset with many of the members of Joe Biden’s team and had said that the team was unable to prevent these gaffes and its utterances.

White House rejects these reports:

The White House has strongly rubbished many of these reports. Taking cognizance of some videos, they termed it as “cheap fakes”. Further, they pointed out that it is under Biden’s administration that the US has successfully dealt with foreign policy issues, brought back manufacturing into the US from China and performed well on the economic front.Also Read: Highlander reboot: Here’s when you can witness the Henry Cavill starrer | Latest update
