Joe Biden as reported He found himself in hot water during a recent Zoom call with moderate Democrats, raising concerns about his ability to lead effectively.
The 81-year-old commander-in-chief faced criticism for his cognitive lapses and dismissive attitude toward key issues during the call, which took place just before the attack on Donald Trump's life.
Reports indicate that Biden struggled to maintain coherent thoughts, often losing his train of thought and resorting to vague answers that left participants unimpressed. According to sources, the call was described as “even worse than the debate”, with one person saying: “I've lost a ton of respect for him.”
“Just before Trump's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a group of moderate Hill Democrats held a 'tense' Zoom call with the White House to express concern about Biden's ability to win, and his ability of winning, and taking them down. “The call was even worse than the debate,” he was rambling and then losing his mind he just said “whatever”. He couldn't really complete an answer. I lost a lot of respect for him.” – Puck News

Despite facing growing concerns about his 2024 re-election campaign following his debate performance, Biden appeared unprepared to address the criticism and was unable to articulate a clear campaign strategy.
The situation escalated when Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) questioned Biden about national security, leading to a tense exchange between the two.
In a combative response, Biden challenged Crow's views on national security and boasted about his record, saying, “Name me a foreign leader who thinks I'm not the most effective foreign policy leader in the world.” Joe Biden's comments baffled some Democrats when he invoked his son's military service while defending his foreign policy decisions.
I, @jaketapper, Biden was caught on a Zoom call with House Democrats mocking a combat veteran's service. It was also so bewildering that several participants said it was “worse than the debate.”

The Zoom call ended abruptly shortly before 5 p.m., with Biden citing the need to attend church.
However, the consequences were overshadowed by the assassination attempt an hour later. Sources suggested the attack derailed a potential backlash from Democrats, preventing them from publicly criticizing Biden.
Although the Biden campaign denied allegations of rambling behavior during the call, critics remain skeptical of Joe Biden's ability to lead effectively. As the commander-in-chief faces mounting challenges, questions about his cognitive acuity continue to linger.
