Social media users were in a frenzy after President Joe Biden appeared flustered as he finished an anti-Donald Trump speech last weekend and was ushered off the stage by First Lady Jill Biden.
Biden was giving a speech on the occasion of the three-year anniversary of the riot that took place on January 6 in the Capitol building, which is the holiest day in the Democratic calendar.
“Today, we gather… just one day before January 6, a day that will remain in our memories forever because on that day we almost lost America – we lost everything,” Biden told his supporters at a campaign rally.
Then Biden became lost.
The Daily Mail reported that Biden “appeared completely isolated at the end of his first campaign speech of 2024.”
The post noted that Dr. Jill Biden “rushed over to him to hold his hand” and whispered something in his ear, “only for her husband to suddenly turn to the crowd and begin speaking again, speaking over the music that was already playing over the speakers.”

Confused President Biden is saved by Jill
While President Biden getting lost and disoriented on stage has become a time-honored tradition, the Daily Mail's assessment that he “went into a trance-like state on stage” may be a bit of an exaggeration.
The video shows that Jill caught the boss's eye when she rushed onto the stage, and it seemed like he was simply waiting for her to get up there and guide him off the stage like some kind of tapioca brain whisperer.
While the decision on whether to impeach Biden is unclear, it's almost certain that Jill's only job on the planet is to make sure her husband can find his way off the stage.
She does It's time, And timeAnd this time again. And when you are not able to direct it? Bad things happen.
Social media followers mocked President Biden because he appeared confused at the end of the speech.
“He doesn't even know how to get off stage.” one person wrote.
“She's there to protect him from getting lost.” Another said For the first lady. “He walks like you would expect a corpse to walk.”

Things didn't get better
Things didn't get much better for President Biden after his January 6 speech, as video emerged of him looking even more confused after landing in Delaware later that evening.
Biden flew on Marine One to Delaware to spend the weekend with his family after his divisive speech. Upon landing, the X users couldn't help but notice his strange behavior again.
“After two weeks of vacation and a 32-minute speech, Biden returned to Delaware for the weekend,” the Republican National Committee wrote. “He was very disoriented upon landing.”
Note that these videos come on the same weekend in which The Hilled tried to argue that President Biden is actually “deeply nuts” — which they describe as “a subset of people 80 and older who are physically and cognitively functioning on… level which is common among those much younger.
Our eyes tell a different story. There are people who are 90 plus that physically move better and function cognitively at a much higher rate than this guy.
Biden is 81 and turns 125.
