On X, Charles Hoskinson ignited the debate by highlighting what he saw as the irony in media outlets now scrutinizing Biden’s performance. In addition, he criticized the Democratic Party for not holding a primary that could have revealed Biden’s cognitive decline. He stated that voters were left with no real choice.

Furthermore, Hoskinson suggested that the lack of a primary amounted to the party making decisions for the voters. Additionally, the Cardano founder presented them with a stark choice between “a dementia puppet or the party deciding for you.” However, a user on X countered Hoskinson’s claims. They argued that while there were no debates, it is not unusual for an incumbent president to avoid serious primary challenges.

They also pointed out that recent incumbents like Trump, Obama, Bush, and Clinton did not face significant primary debates either. Hoskinson responded by questioning the legitimacy of the primaries. In addition, he suggested that when super delegates indicate that even 100% of the votes wouldn’t guarantee a win for a candidate, it undermines the democratic process.

Fox Business journalist Charles Gasparino also weighed in, expressing his discomfort with people diagnosing Biden with dementia on social media. He emphasized the severity of the situation if Biden is indeed experiencing significant mental decline and it is being concealed by those around him. Gasparino argued that such a cover-up could be one of the most significant presidential scandals, potentially rivaling Watergate, due to the implications for national leadership.

McBride, picking up on Gasparino’s points, bluntly asserted that it is “obvious” Biden is suffering from dementia. Moreover, the former Ripple alum asserted that Democratic elites have been covering up the extent of his decline. In addition, he drew a parallel between the administration’s actions against Donald Trump’s campaign and the Watergate scandal.

45% Democrats Vote For Presidential Candidate Replacement

The debate over Biden’s cognitive health has intensified, especially as he prepares for a critical election period. During a debate watch at an assisted living facility in Washington, residents were visibly concerned about Biden’s performance. Moments such as his inexplicable remark, “We finally beat Medicare,” left viewers questioning his capability.

The perception of older voters is crucial for Biden, as they are a demographic that turns out in large numbers at the polls. In the 2020 election, Biden lost voters aged 65 and older to Donald Trump by a narrow margin and is now aggressively courting this group. However, incidents that highlight his age-related vulnerabilities are likely to hinder these efforts.

In addition, recent polls indicate a growing unease among Democratic voters about Biden’s viability as the party’s nominee. Furthermore, a CBS News poll revealed that 45% of Democratic voters think Biden should step aside and not seek re-election. This sentiment reflects broader concerns within the party about Biden’s ability to lead effectively amid ongoing questions about his mental acuity.
