President Joe Biden has used a highly anticipated TV interview to repeatedly reject taking an independent medical evaluation that would show voters he is up for serving another term in office.
This is really hard to watch. He keeps dodging the questions, and he really comes across like he just has no awareness of what’s actually going on in his own country.
George keeps asking very pointed questions like “Do you think you have the mental capacity to do this job for another four years?” and Biden just keeps re-stating things he’s done for the last 4 years. George asks the titular “Would you have an independent analysis done, etc.”, and Biden keeps dodging the question with, “I have that evaluation every day [because I make difficult decisions]”.
He doesn’t seem to comprehend that he is likely to lose this election if he doesn’t change peoples’ minds about his mental fitness, and when offered the opportunity to prove that he’s not suffering from mental decline, he brushes it off. He says he’s going to keep running because he knows what’s best for the country, as if he thinks it’s a foregone conclusion that if he runs, he’ll win.
He just keeps going back to how much Trump lies, and how awful Trump is, rather than trying to address the concern that he’s not fit to oppose Trump.
Edit: Best Biden moment in the whole thing. “Sure [I’ve had time to challenge Trump], but I’ve also been doing a whole lot of other things, like wars around the world[…]”
It’s really coming across as stubborn arrogance. I make the decisions and I’ve proven to myself I’m fit, so you all have to just get in line. It’s true he has almost all the power to make this choice, but he doesn’t seem to get that if he doesn’t justify it to the people he’s going to keep losing support and then lose the election.
This is stupid thing to request, because such test will not provide a true/false response but a bunch of indicators. And with disinformation it will just create its own negative interpretation no matter what.
Just look at how “experts” talk about covid vaccines.
What test? You’re just butting in with an argument that wasn’t present in this comment thread. If you want to just make a comment about the post title, make it top-level on the post itself.

Why are you replying to me?
I’m saying that the test won’t conclude anything in the eyes of the public, so it is a pointless request.
