'Honestly sad to watch': Questions arise about Biden's condition following new videos of president seemingly 'confused'

New videos have surfaced of Joe Biden that left many netizens expressing concern over the condition of the current president.

President Biden gave a speech in Pennsylvania on Friday on the eve of the third anniversary of the riot at the U.S. Capitol building. Biden used his speech held near Valley Forge to accuse former President Donald Trump of being a threat to democracy. The speech was Biden's first political event of the election year.

"Donald Trump's campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future," Biden said. "He's willing to sacrifice our democracy, [to] put himself in power."

"Today, I make this sacred pledge to you, the defense, protection, and preservation of American democracy will remain, as it has been, the central cause of my presidency. America, as we begin this election year, we must be clear, democracy is on the ballot. Your freedom is on the ballot."

Speaking of the events of January 6, Biden claimed, "We nearly lost America — lost it all."

As Biden ended his speech, Jill Biden rushes to the stage and escorts the president.

The official account on the X social media platform posted a video of President Biden being led off stage with the caption: "Jill, Ed.D., escorts Biden off the stage following his remarks."

Video shows the first lady lead the president off stage and as soon as she believes she is out of camera view she immediately drops his hand.

Numerous online commentators questioned the manner that President Biden was escorted off the stage.

GOP rapid response director Jake Schneider said, "She's walking him off the stage like a child."

Conservative influencer Benny Johnson wrote, "I’m convinced Joe Biden should be followed by a full crew of tarmac air traffic controllers with light wands to guide him off stage full-time."

The Daily Mail said of Biden's exit, "Jill Biden rushed to embrace zoned-out Biden after he finished speech, then went into trance-like state on-stage."

Biden returned to Delaware later that day.

Online commentators also suggested that President Biden looked "confused" after stepping off the Marine One helicopter.

The video was captioned: "After two weeks of vacation and a 32-minute speech, Biden is back in Delaware for a weekend respite. He was VERY confused upon landing."

The footage shows Biden looking from side to side, then peering back at the helicopter until a man in uniform guides the president to the motorcade.

Washington, D.C. reporter Paul Bedard noted, "I covered White House for 10 years and never saw a president have interactions/directions like these."

Trump advocate Karoline Leavitt added, "This is honestly sad to watch."

In June 2023, the octogenarian president appeared to need guidance to walk off a stage after making a perplexing comment about the late Queen Elizabeth.

In February 2022, President Biden seemingly needed assistance in exiting the stage after a speech.

In December 2021, a CNN reporter admitted that Biden looked "confused."

In June 2021, Biden suffered several mental lapses and gaffes at the G7 summit. At one point, fellow world leaders openly laughed at Biden over his forgetfulness.

Joe Biden – who is running for reelection – is currently 81 years old. If he were to win the 2024 presidential election, he would be 86 years old at the end of his second term.
