    Biden slowly lowers his hand from his heart during the Indian national anthem


    President Joe Biden had an awkward moment when he appeared to realize the Indian national anthem was playing rather than "The Star Spangled Banner," resulting in him slowly lowering his hand from his heart.

    Standing next to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Biden appeared to believe that "The Star Spangled Banner" would be played by the orchestra first, raising his hand to his heart. However, video showed the president slowly lowering his hand back to his side when the Indian national anthem began to play.

    What can be said? Just more confusion from Biden. Is there some sort of an index, or scale for dementia? Because it would seem that an America President and career politician who does not recognize the US National Anthem has a pretty serious imparement. Just sayin.

    Ridiculous. You apparently think that you never make mistakes. Biden had expected the U.S. National Anthem first-- what about that, says "dementia" to you? Once the anthem had started, obviously, he needed to play it off with whatever subtlety he could muster.

    The hilarious part, is the almost ceaseless cavalcade of stupidity we see & hear from Trump, from DeSantis, and from so many Republican Senators and Congresspersons. But you miss all of those incidents, I guess.

    One incident after another indicates dementia. Do you really want me to list the incidents?

    Your second paragraph is just a strawman fallacy, Trump whataboutism, false dichotomy fallacy, and an ad hominem fallacy.

    If your intent was to make a case for dementia, then you should realize that this single incident does not remotely come close to hitting the mark. So, yes, I would expect you to list however many incidents would be needed to prove your thesis. But I am now sensing that your thread was only meant for people who already believe that Biden is suffering from dementia.

    I was more concerned with him seeming to have his left hand clinched shut and his right hand extended out during the start of the thing for a fair amount of time. Makes me wonder if he has something neurological going on. Most people would have their hands in the same position when standing with them at their sides.

    Anyway, as far as the national anthem, who knows. Sometimes they set the speakers up to face away so people on the stage cannot hear as well, especially if there is a lot of ambient noise in the area. I understand that is why a lot of performers wear ear pieces---they cannot hear the music otherwise when they are singing.

    I think Biden didn't know how to react like he thought he should raise his hand to his heart but realized that he didn't need to. Rightists will create hoopla over anything just like Leftists do. I could have made the same mistake.

    I don't think that we should do like Democrats and focus on every little minutiae. This is akin to the left throwing a big deal over toilet paper stuck to the president's shoe

    But but but the left loved them some two scoops, eating chicken with a fork and liking steak well done. Those were all front page stories on CNN. Do you recall the ONE time Trump had a brief problem speaking and the ensuing leftist insanity? I do.

    To the confusion of observers, he concluded, "All right. God Save the Queen, man," before looking around to figure out where to walk offstage.

    Your a lying dog faced pony soldier.

    Jackie, are you here? Where's Jackie?

    President Joe Biden misspoke when he told reporters on Friday he would hold a “major press conference” later in the afternoon, the White House said while clarifying that he was instead referring to a previously scheduled interview—adding to the long list of Biden gaffes amid concerns about his age.

    "Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he'll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people.

    "Repeat the line"
    [literal reading of teleprompter]

    During a speech Biden made at a rally in Pittsburgh, while campaigning for then-Pennsylvania Democrat Senator hopeful John Fetterman, he appeared to get confused while trying to leave a stage.

    Now when President Harris and I took a virtual tour of a vaccination center in Arizona not long ago,

    "And, by the way, if they do, that means, not a joke everybody, that's why we defeated it in 2018 when they tried to do it. We went to 54 states.

    Anyway, you guys, I'm heading down to first of all, going to Cairo for the environmental effort [COP27], then heading over to Colombia and then—I mean, Cambodia."

    "Let me start off with two words: Made in America.

    "New York sent not only a Congresswoman, one of the most congresswoman in the Congress,"

    "And I know the family well – the George Family Justice Act, Policing Act – I know the family well," Biden said, mangling the name of Democrats' George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

    “We have plans to build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean”.

    “I was sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community at home,

    “This was given to me by one of these guys, right here. He was a hell of a rugby player. He beat the hell out of the Black and Tans.”

    "And maybe most important, I've committed to – by 2020, [
    2 years before taking office] we will have conserved 30% of all the lands and waters the United States has jurisdiction over and simultaneously reduce emissions to blunt climate impact," Biden told those gathered at the preserve.

    Your a damn liar. Look fat.

    continue to bear witness, to keep alive the truth and honor of the Holocaust

    “If your home is powered by safer, cheaper, cleaner electricity, like solar or heat pumps, you can save about $500 a month on average,”

    “It seems like yesterday the first time I got arrested,”

    “I’ve adopted the attitude of the great Negro at the time,” a squinting Biden said, soon after laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

    “And I want to thank, er … that fella Down Under,”

    “I remember spending time at the, you know, going to the, you know, the Tree of Life synagogue, speaking with them,” Biden said.

    The next day, the White House had to admit that Biden made the story up.

    Biden showing the rest of the world the US national anthem should always be played first. Some of you may not like it though.

    What wrong with these two people??? Seriously? They seek attention and the bases' money so desperately? Fleecing the Ultra MAGA seniors should be a crime...

    @JET3534

    Part 2:

    https://www.liveabout.com/dumbest-bush-quotes-of-all-time-2734076

    "This is an impressive crowd—the haves and the have mores. Some people call you the elite—I call you my base."


    "You know,
    one of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror."


    "I would say the best moment of all was when I caught a 7.5-pound largemouth bass in my lake." —on his best moment in office, interview with the German newspaper Bild am Sonntag, May 7, 2006


    "If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator." —Washington, D.C., December 19, 2000


    In Hindsight...
    It's particularly painful when history proves you were wrong from the outset:

    "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job." —to FEMA director Michael Brown while touring hurricane-ravaged Mississippi, September 2, 2005

    "I don't think anybody anticipated the breach of the levees." —on "Good Morning America," September 1, 2005, six days after repeated warnings from experts about the scope of damage expected from Hurricane Katrina



    "Can we win? I don't think you can win it." —after being asked whether the war on terror was winnable, "Today" show interview, August 30, 2004


    "I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." —Washington, D.C., March 13, 2002

    "The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our No. 1 priority, and we will not rest until we find him." —Washington, D.C., September 13, 2001



    "You work three jobs?… Uniquely American, isn't it? I mean, that is fantastic that you're doing that." —to a divorced mother of three, Omaha, Nebraska, February 4, 2005


    "Do you have Blacks, too?" —to Brazilian President Fernando Cardoso, Washington, D.C., November 8, 2001



    Going Out in Style
    In some of his most poignant misstatements, George W. Bush revealed his bitterness as he was leaving the Oval Office:

    "Goodbye from the world's biggest polluter." —in parting words to world leaders at his final G-8 Summit, punching the air and grinning widely as those present looked on in shock, Rusutsu, Japan, July 10, 2008


    "So what?" —President Bush, responding to an ABC News correspondent who pointed out that Al Qaeda wasn't a threat in Iraq until after the United States invaded, December 14, 2008
    <End>



    Is that the kind of sanity you're promoting, to replace Biden? Or maybe it's with the sanity of the House Freedom Caucus?

    At this point, we don't really need any more evidence that Joe Biden is slipping mentally. That ship has sailed. It's clear his age has caught up with him.

    Actually went the band began “I” thought it was an intro to OUR National Anthem. Had I been there I would’ve done the same as President Biden. As an aside; I guess I’ve never heard it before or maybe paid attention but, the Indian anthem … well, it sucks!

    Every single one of these threads outlining the "crimes" or "proof of dementia" of Biden are just "whataboutism" in an attempt to distract from the real crimes and cognitive problems of Trump.
