This honestly is no longer okay, we need a new president.
In a recent press conference, the current President made a notable slip of the tongue, suggesting voters elect him as he belongs to the “20th century,” a comment that quickly circulated among detractors who question his suitability for a subsequent term due to his age.
At 81 years old, the President’s remark came during the closing moments of a press event held in the White House Rose Garden with the Japanese Prime Minister. Amidst a cacophony of journalists vying for his attention, the President expressed his exasperation before addressing a handful of questions from the press.
A prominent journalist inquired about the President’s stance on a contentious abortion law in Arizona, which was recently upheld by the state’s Supreme Court, dating back to 1864 and prohibiting abortion from conception, save for exceptions to protect the mother’s life.
The President’s initial response, “Elect me,” was followed by the erroneous reference to the “20th century.” Recognizing the mistake, he swiftly corrected himself, noting the correct century and alluding to Arizona’s historical status at the time.
The incident added to the ongoing narrative surrounding the President’s public appearances, where he occasionally seems disoriented or misinforms on key details.
Further into the conference, when asked about the potential resolution of the conflict in Ukraine, the President suggested that progress hinged on legislative action concerning military aid.
Public opinion polls reflect a persistent concern regarding the President’s mental acuity, especially considering he would be 86 at the end of a second term in 2029.
In contrast, the former President, aged 77, frequently asserts his mental sharpness over his successor, a claim that resonates with a majority of the populace, as indicated by survey results.
