I watched the ABC interview. Biden was well spoken and was strong with his talking points. However, he did come off as evasive in regards to the questions he was asked. I don’t mind this, because a good politician answers the question they wish they were asked, rather than a question they’d rather not answer. When a premise goes against you, reject it.
The question that annoyed me was his refusal to take a cognitive test from an independent neurologist. If he took such a test, everyone could tell me and all my ilk to shut the fuck up, and we couldn’t say a single thing in response. We could confidently tell the rest of the electorate to look at the results for confirmation of his mental acuity.
Why not take such a test? What is the risk? This seems so simple to put to bed, but it still feels like the campaign is fighting the narrative rather than addressing it. The interview wasn’t designed to address skeptics. It was designed to rally the faithful.
