My mother had a saying that fits Joe Biden to a tee. “The great thing about becoming senile is that when it happens, you won’t be aware of it. Well, maybe Joe doesn’t realize it but everyone else sure is. To illustrate that point, you will be seeing two video clips. One is from ten years or so ago and the secnd is from this election season.
For those youngsters amongst us, you probably weren’t aware that Joe Biden used to be articulate and well spoken. That was before his brain was run through a bloody blender. Lately, it seems that Joe Biden can’t even say hello without messing it up. He never knows what city or state he is in, whether or not he was arrested while trying to see Mandela or whether that woman next to him is his wife or his sister.
For younger voters who don’t have much prior knowledge of Biden, it may be shocking to see the politician speak in clear and complete sentences in past video.
Compared with footage taken during his current campaign for the Oval Office, it’s hard to believe Joe Biden is the man now being filmed.
Now, 13 years later and in his late 70s, Biden struggles at times with remembering the names of people interviewing him and even what states he’s in.
The sheer number of gaffes is remarkable, and a compilation of the missteps is the only way to truly grasp the scale and diversity of the candidate’s mistakes.

The former vice president is no longer the cool, quick-witted man who walked into the national spotlight more than ten years ago.
It’s unclear whether the worst of his gaffes, like a claim that he was arrested in a rebellion against apartheid in South Africa, are simply lies or something Biden believed actually happened.
With the Democratic 2020 candidates now whittled down to a few outlandish people, it appears leftist voters have the unenviable choice of deciding between avowed socialist Bernie Sanders and the increasingly incoherent Joe Biden.
