NEWT:

Well, look, I thought his performance in Maui was so bad, he was so clearly out of it that, frankly, I think it’s frightening. This is not about politics and scoring points. This is the commander in chief of the most powerful, powerful military in the world. And it’s clear that at least half the time he’s just not there. I mean, month by month, his cognitive collapse is more and more obvious. The Associated Press just reported that 77% of all Americans, Democrats, Republicans, independents, 77% now believe that Biden is too old to run for reelection. I suspect by next summer that number will be in the nineties because once this starts, it’s just going to get steadily worse. He’s clearly in cognitive decline. He’s clear, in fact it makes me wonder who’s making the real decisions at the White House. Obviously, Joe Biden is not he’s not capable of it.

NEWT:

Well, first of all, one of the nice things about cognitive dissonance is he may not know the number and it may not occur to him that it matters. And he’s just going on with his life. You know, he’s back on to the beach. He’s relaxing and doing some bicycling. He has a pretty decent life. And it doesn’t occur to him that all these other things are piling up in a way that will be an absolute disaster for the Democratic Party. My personal guess is that that the driving force behind the Biden administration is Barack Obama. Obama is the only president since Woodrow Wilson to stay in Washington, and in Wilson’s case, he stayed because he’d had a severe stroke and he couldn’t be moved. So the fact that Obama is here all the time, the fact that his staff permeates, literally permeates the Biden administration and Obama is really, really smart. I mean, whatever Biden’s problems are at being kind of slow and cognitively decaying, Obama doesn’t have any of those problems. And if you watch the administration, it’s much more an Obama administration than, say, the Joe Biden of ten or 15 years ago. This is a very radical, very left wing administration, deeply dedicated to policies that are close to crazy. Their electric car policy is a disaster. As President Trump said today, it’s going to destroy at least 100,000 jobs. And we’ll achieve nothing in the long run. There are policies across the board going out. The idea that they might propose that Americans be limited to two beers a week, you know, this is the kind of petty nanny state interference that most Americans will find crazy.
