During a campaign fundraiser in Los Angeles, US President Joe Biden experienced a momentary freeze, prompting former President Barack Obama to guide him off stage. The incident occurred following a joint interview with Jimmy Kimmel at the Peacock Theatre.
After a 45-minute interview with Kimmel, President Biden and former President Obama stood for applause, during which Biden seemed fixated on the crowd for about 10 seconds before Obama intervened and led him offstage. This incident adds to a series of moments captured on camera where President Biden appeared disoriented or confused about his surroundings.
Recent incidents, including one at the G7 summit in Italy where he appeared to wander off during a parachute exhibition, have raised concerns about Biden’s health and cognitive abilities. At a Juneteenth concert at the White House, he appeared momentarily disoriented while others were dancing and singing.
These incidents have sparked discussions about age and leadership. US First Lady Dr. Jill Biden defended her husband’s age during a campaign speech in Green Bay, Wisconsin, arguing that age should not be a deciding factor in the election. She praised Biden as a “healthy and wise 81-year-old” and emphasized that the elections should focus on the character of the person leading the country.
