The world is laughing at the United States with Joe Biden in the Oval Office — or at least our Aussie friends downunder are getting a good chuckle out of his presidency.
Earlier this week, Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi could not contain her laughter after Biden’s doctor released a report claiming the commander-in-chief is fit to serve. Panahi played a series of verbal miscues, stumbles, and other oddities from Biden’s time in the White House to compare with the medical update.
The montage must be seen to be believed:
The week prior, Panahi also had fun at Biden’s expense as The Australian’s Washington correspondent, Adam Creighton, broke down some of Biden’s greatest gaffes
“I have argued in other columns that this has been the funniest president in history because of this phenomenon,” Creighton told Panahi as the channel’s chyron read” Another Day Another Joe Biden Blunder.”
Creighton also pointed out that it is a somewhat worrying “phenomenon.”
“Of course, the humor is not intentional, but it’s nevertheless very, very funny – and somewhat worrying, I suppose,” he added.
Last week, White House physician Kevin O’Connor released in a memo that Biden’s most recent physical shows that he is in sufficient shape to remain serving as President of the United States, even though a cognitive test was not conducted, The Daily Wire reported.
“President Biden remains a healthy, vigorous 80-year-old male who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief,” O’Connor stated.
On Friday, ABC News released snippets of an interview in which — much like Panahi’s video compilation — the president appeared to show what appear to be moments of senility.
For example, he couldn’t “recall” if he had spoken to the Mayor of East Palestine, Ohio, in wake of the toxic train derailment:
Earlier on Friday, he floundered through a question from the press before departing from the White House.
“Are you planning on traveling to East Palestine?” a reporter asked Biden.
“At this moment not. I was, I did a whole video, I mean, uh, you know, the uh, what the hell?” he responded .”On Zoom. All I can hear every time I think of Zoom is that song of my generation, ‘Who’s Zoomin’ Who?’”
“Who’s Zoomin’ Who” was a 1985 Aretha Franklin hit song that came out when the president was 43 years old.
On that note, to modify a phrase from “Charlie Brown” creator Charles M. Schulz: Don’t worry about the world coming to an end today under Biden’s command. It’s already tomorrow in Australia.
