During a CNN interview last month, for example, Biden seemed to struggle to remember a talking point about Franklin Roosevelt's creation of the War Production Board during World War II, even while visibly reading from notecards in front of him.
Recounting some of Biden's bumbles during his Friday MSNBC interview, the Boston Herald's Howie Carr asked, "If you can't figure out what Joe Biden says, is it still a lie?".
No doubt, the Trump campaign has a vast vault of video clips ready to roll out in campaign ads highlighting Biden's mental incapacity, but they're probably holding back to see if the Democrats will actually nominate the man Trump calls "Sleepy Joe." Ever since Biden scored his big Super Tuesday wins in early March to effectively clinch the nomination, there have been murmurs that Democrats might pull a switcheroo.
Wouldn't it be convenient to a certain resident of Chappaqua, New York, if this scandal were to force Biden off the ticket? And wouldn't that switcheroo spare Democrats the uphill battle of trying to convince America that Sleepy Joe is still in complete possession of his faculties? Of course, Democrats are eager to blame Trump supporters for promoting the idea that Biden isn't playing with a full deck, but these concerns were raised by some of Biden's rivals for the nomination, including Julián Castro and Cory Booker.
After one particularly bad debate performance by Biden last November, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough said: "He knows he's having trouble finding words. The sentences are jumbled, the words are jumbled. Are we afraid to say that a lot of his sentences don't make sense? That he's having trouble completing thoughts?".
Democrats and their media allies currently seem to believe they can steer Biden past the Tara Reade scandal, but what about the young woman who says Biden complimented her breasts when she was 14? Or what about the seven other women who have accused Biden of inappropriate behavior? Is it possible that still more accusers might come forward? But sexual misconduct claims are not really the worst problem for the Biden campaign.
Does anyone really believe Biden is up to such a challenge? Or is this campaign turning into a dark comedy we might call "Weekend at Biden's"? Given the probability that such a farce would conclude with Trump's reelection, Democrats might yet decide to rewrite the script.
