Kremlin reacts to Biden’s harsh statement about Putin: "Given the irritability of Mr. Biden, his fatigue & sometimes forgetfulness, this leads to aggressive statements. We will not get into sharp assessments so as not to cause more aggression.”
lmao
Anybody outside of the US/UK, I need a sanity check: everybody else around the world knows that Biden is a feckless old man yelling at clouds and forgetting that he's president, right? They aren't fooled by any American propaganda that he's strong and knows what he's doing, right? Because the Kremlin clearly knows but I'm not sure how many American brainworms people have outside the imperial core.
Officially this is not discussed in Danish media, and from talking to the average Dane, they are firmly behind Biden and support him. I have no idea why, other than the fact that he isn't Trump, who was genuinely disliked. I've attempted to talk to a few other people who said they enjoyed following American politics, and most of them seemed to acknowledge that he was old, and likely losing his mind, but that at the current point in time he was just fine.
I dont think he’s any less coherent than on average for his age. Same with trump. They both probably have early stages of cognitive decline.
I think Brandon actually is holding his own in keeping the rabid losers around him in the state department and military from escalating this.
He has agency, and also is responsible for all the ghoulish shit like funding the police and back to the office rhetoric
He has his moments in both directions but nowhere near as clear as like 20 years ago.
Yeah, same with trump, bernie, et al
:good-morning:
It's probably kind of easier to think "This is one particularly fucked up guy in charge of stuff" rather than "Oh this is what most of them are like they just dont have a camera on them often enough or no one cares when they have old age moments".

In Denmark the political elite typically adopts democrat party variants of American brainworms and you'll not have to look long for statements praising Biden while there's far between the less impressed assessments of him and the US in mainstream media. Anti-americanism is not something the responsible adults in the room does. America might have made mistakes but they are essentially good, they're fighting for democracy and human rights and you can count on them telling the truth. Also, we owe them our loyalty and admiration for saving us from the Germans and Soviets in WWII and from the Soviets once more during the cold war.
If you ask ordinary people though they can clearly see that his brain is not firing on all cylinders and the most common assessment of him is "he's too old".
