It’s happened so many times that sometimes it feels redundant to write about it. But there are instances where it occurs that are so disturbing that it needs to be documented for the record. An incident that happened on Monday during the White House’s Easter egg roll was one such moment.
As you’ll see in the below video, at one point something happens out of the frame of the video that makes Mrs. Biden applaud. Joe Biden, however, appears confused, and it seems from the clip that he’s not sure what he needs to do next. Does he speak? Get up? Or stay where he is?
That’s when Jill Biden puts her hand on his arm and gently informs him that he needs to “just stay.” There is then more awkwardness when Joe Biden tells the crowd that she told him he needs to stay where he is, noting that “she’s the teacher.” She then laughs and echoes his point as though it’s totally normal for her to tell him whether he needs to move, get up, stay or speak.

It’s sad to see the president cognitively not all there.
