President Biden took a tumble while passing out diplomas at the Air Force Academy yesterday. His communications director says it was due to a sandbag on stage, but this isn’t the first time we’ve seen him fall.
From tripping on the stairs of Air Force One to falling off his bike while approaching the press, we’ve seen these instances over and over, which is why it’s so concerning.
Biden is 80 years old, which makes him the oldest president in U.S. history. It’s a serious topic that deserves a discussion. Americans deserve to know our president is mentally capable of doing the job they elected him to do. If he's not, he shouldn't be in the Oval Office, and he certainly shouldn't run for reelection.
To address these concerns, I, along with many others, have signed onto a letter by Rep. Ronny Jackson that asks the president to take a cognitive test. This isn’t a gimmick or a way to poke fun; it’s a legitimate concern rooted in wanting what’s best for our country.
There is no doubt that being president is demanding. It requires a leader who is all in and all there, especially at this critical point in our history.
The American people deserve transparency and confidence. Let’s ensure we have a leader who is mentally present, capable, and fit to guide our nation forward.
