Peter Doocy confronts Biden with the perfect question after alarming report about his memory — and he doesn't like it

Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy asked the question that everyone is thinking after special counsel Robert Hur released his damning report about President Joe Biden's classified documents scandal.

After Biden defended himself in a brief speech — that showed more signs of Biden's cognitive decline — Doocy confronted Biden with Hur's description that Biden is a "well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory." Those circumstances, Hur's report explained, are the chief reason why he declined to prosecute Biden despite clear evidence that Biden broke the law.

"I'm well-meaning and I'm an elderly man, and I know what the hell I'm doing," Biden reacted. "I've been president and I put this country back on its feet. I don't need his recommendation."

Doocy followed up with the million-dollar question.

"How bad is your memory? And can you continue as president?" he asked.

But instead of providing the American people with a legitimate answer, Biden chose to attack Doocy with sarcasm.

"My memory is so bad, I let you speak," the president quipped.

Biden spent the remaining question-and-answer time attacking the press and Hur's report.

Not only did he mock questions about his memory, but Biden dismissed concerns that voters have about his mental and physical health, refused to take responsibility for improperly storing highly classified documents (he blamed his staff), asserted that he is the "most qualified" American to be president, denied sharing classified information with his ghostwriter, and claimed he did not break the law.

Hur's report, however, revealed that Biden did share classified information with his ghostwriter, and the report certainly did not absolve him of breaking the law.

"Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen," the report states.

Biden's public reaction to the report, his inability to grapple with the facts, and his decision to lash out at the media have some Democrats wondering why the White House thought the press conference was a good idea because, if one thing is for certain, it did not help him.
