He probably knows that he's messed up and is annoyed with himself.

just watched it on You tube. You can very clearly see, a completely vacant look on his face at times. I don't know how much longer they'll keep this up for.

Well to his albeit diminishing credit, I don't remember Biden
a. releasing a major member of the Taliban from prison
b. ignoring/failing to invite the existing president of Afghanstan to peace talks
c. Holding talks without informing NATO
All of the above I'm pretty sure were the actions of the previous president so let's not pretend old trumpy boy is as pure as the driven snow.

Never said he was, I was referring to the current presidents mental capacity or lack of it.

They are both equally to blame. Anyone trying to make a Trump/Biden issue on this is talking smollocks.

Nope, I actually blame Biden more, he had the chance to reverse Trumps stupidities Yet instead he chose to use this as a vote winner in next years mid terms

Actually Obama started it.

Quote:
President Barack Obama had promised to end the war, so on Dec. 28, 2014, U.S. and NATO officials held a ceremony at their headquarters in Kabul to mark the occasion.
...
In a statement, Obama called the day “a milestone for our country” and said the United States was safer and more secure after 13 years of war.
“Thanks to the extraordinary sacrifices of our men and women in uniform, our combat mission in Afghanistan is ending and the longest war in American history is coming to a responsible conclusion,” he declared.
...
Obama had scaled back military operations over the previous three years, but he failed to pull the United States out of the quagmire. At the time of the ceremony, about 10,800 U.S. troops remained, a decrease of almost 90 percent from the surge of forces that he had sent to Afghanistan in his first term. Obama promised to withdraw the rest of the troops by the end of 2016, coinciding with the end of his term in office, save for a residual force at the U.S. Embassy.

Re: US President Joe Biden
America urgently needs to ratify the 28th Amendment, no person over the age of 70, may become or remain the President of the United States, or be elected to either the House of Representatives or The Senate. A clause should be included that if a president is elected just prior to their 70th birthday, they must retire on the day they reach 70 and the Vice President assumes office of the president (They also have to be under the age of 70).

I don't think that's necessary, as there are plenty of competent 70+ years olds that could do a good job.
I do think that regular cognitive tests should be done though.

Not everyone over 70 is incompetent, in fact many under 70s are complete halfwits, I think a competency test every six months what ever their age would be a better approach.
