    Not The Same Joe Biden’: White House Stenographer Says

    Not The Same Joe Biden’: White House Stenographer Says Former VP’s ‘Mental Acuity’ Has Deteriorated

    Joe Biden’s former White House stenographer said the vice president’s public speaking ability has deteriorated significantly since leaving office to the point where he’s "not the same Joe Biden."

    "It is a complete difference from what he was in 2017," Mike McCormick, who worked as a White House stenographer for 15 years and with Biden from 2011 to 2017, told the Washington Free Beacon in an interview. "He’s lost a step and he doesn’t seem to have the same mental acuity as he did four years ago."

    "He doesn’t have the energy, he doesn’t have the pace of his speaking," McCormick said. "He’s a different guy."

    Joe Biden’s former White House stenographer said the vice president’s public speaking ability has deteriorated significantly since leaving office to the point where he’s “not the same Joe Biden.”

    My youngest daughter, who is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, had me join an internet Alzheimer's support group. That is a common lament -- "This is NOT the person I married."

      Being 63 years old and having listened to Mr Biden on and off for the last few decades I even can see that he is not the same. To be truthful I don't think with my memory that I should be the President either. The right thing to do in my opinion is for his family to shield him and take him out of the fight. If you remember Mrs Reagan took her husband out of the public eye so that people would remember him for what he was and not what his terrible illness had made of him.

        I wonder if his book is written in shorthand, and in steno symbols?

          Well, yeah. But Reagan was a great man, and Biden was always a snurd.

              Biden's son. Hunter. knocked up a stripper from Batesville, AR. Big court case going on right now.

              How can he let his grandson be used as a pawn in a game like that? If his son won't man up and take responsibility, old Banana Joe should step up to the plate.

              But he won't.

                Reagan's act of appearing as an amiable but somewhat in over his head duffer was an act. Susan Massie was visiting the USSR about the time of the KAL 007 shoot down crisis, she was invited to the White House. After the aides and photographers left, Reagan turned to her and said:
                "Do Soviet leaders really believe in their ideology?"

                  The guy is selling a book. You didn't think he was giving an objective assessment, did you?

                  Whatever one says about Biden, his sense of right and wrong is at least recognizable to ordinary people. With Trump, it's all about what is in it for Trump. Trump's morality is objectively anti-moral, literally the opposite of what we teach kids, or expect of our servicemen and servicewomen.

                    How could they?

                    There is a joke -- a Soviet Aparatchik made it to the top. He brought his mother out to his luxurious dacha, showed her his Zil limousine, his cellar full of fine wine. And she said, "That's all very nice, Boris. But what are you going to do when the Communists find out about it? :-)

                      got caught plagiarizing what, 3 x's now?

                      several counts of his son and dealings (Ukraine etc)


                      and, most importantly,

                      47 years in office , and suddenly he can fix the problems he either created or did nothing about ?

                        "47 years, what's he done?", one of those hollow talking points that trusts that no one will bother to consider the question at depth. "I don't know, so probably... nothing!" That talking point marks someone as a bubble-dweller.

                        What has Mike Pence done? Ted Cruz?

                        We know as VP Biden was the guy who went to the hill to hash out legislation with McConnell, Ryan, etc. That sounds more productive than what Pence does, which is to clean up Trump poop in the Republican House and Senate conferences.

                        Speaking of Ukraine, a guy named Andriy Derkach is in the news. Sanctioned by our Treasury Department for election interference. This is a guy Giuliani was feeling up for "dirt" on Biden. That's Trump for you, sending his henchmen to Ukraine to try to find political dirt with the help of crooks and Russian agents. In other words, real Trump people.

                          Mike Pence had a radio show.
