Joe Biden, the man affectionately referred to as “Dementia Joe” by some, recently took the stage for what his handlers dubbed a “Big Boy Press Conference.” Amidst whispers of his mental sharpness, Joe assured the nation that he wasn’t going anywhere, boldly proclaiming that nobody was calling for his resignation due to supposed cognitive decline. The New Yorker even went as far as to praise his performance as “less than awful,” which in Biden terms, is practically a standing ovation.
During the press conference, Joe tackled questions with the finesse of a seasoned politician, effortlessly navigating the topics thrown at him by journalists. His loyal wife, Jill, was quick to commend him on a job well done, applauding his ability to tackle all inquiries with confidence and apparent knowledge of the facts. It seemed like Joe had finally hit his stride, much to the surprise of his detractors.

However, it wasn’t all smooth sailing for Joe. A slight hiccup occurred when he mistakenly referred to the President of Ukraine as “President Putin” at a NATO conference. An honest mistake, surely, considering both leaders share a first name. Despite this slip-up, Joe managed to regain his composure and deliver a performance that impressed even his critics.
In the aftermath of the press conference, even former Trump administration officials like Rick Grenell acknowledged Joe’s strong showing. Democrats like Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama were forced to put their knives away, opting to wait until after the NATO Summit before making any moves to force Joe out of the race. With distractions like the upcoming Republican National Convention on the horizon, it seems like Joe might have bought himself some time.
In the world of politics, where perception is key, Joe Biden’s recent press conference may have helped him regain some lost ground. As the media cycle shifts focus and new events take center stage, Joe’s performance could be just the lifeline he needs to stay in the race a little while longer. Love him or hate him, it looks like Dementia Joe isn’t going down without a fight.
