Newly released audio of a special counsel interviewing then-President Joe Biden shows memory lapses that White House officials denied at the time, including a president clearly struggling to remember the year his oldest son died.

Trump todaybabbling like a lunatic, flattering people who funded 9/11, ignoring SCOTUS, taking bribes from a Hamas funder, got the country’s triple A credit rating downgraded and kidnapping people from the streets and trafficking them to Central America..but let’s concentrate on Biden.
Yes, I believe he had memory lapses but forgetting the year his son died?
My mother was very important to be but although I remember clearly the circumstances of her death, I often do not remember the year. That is a cruel thing to judge on.
We have more pressing matters, as the constitution is being ripped apart by Trump. An elderly man forgetting stuff is not uncommon. Consider the hateful rant Trump posted tonight.
Gosh dang…
Be grateful Joe kept the economy afloat to the point he did, bc we’re nosediving with tariffs
I really do feel like this is rage bait. Why do you keep bringing up Joe Biden? Democracy is being handed to foreign nations on a silver platter. I hope the American people can bring a class action lawsuit against these publications, cause y'all are doing us dirty.
You know what? Put this to rest. We knew he
Was struggling then, you don’t need to drag him through the
Mud cuz
It makes shitty news from a network I had
Some respect for. For Christ sake let it the fuck go and just leave him
Alone.
…and this is just one of the reasons I no longer watch NBC News or any corporate media news. Screw you. You are complicit in what is happening to our country right now.
Why is this breaking news. We survived the Biden administration and he will not run for future elections. It’s time for NBC and others to face the reality that you are helping the Trump administration destroy our country by grabbing the shiny objects Trump dangles. Stop. Just stop.
NBC...you want to talk about crazy things a POTUS says. Where the story about Trump stealing the 2024 election. You know he admitted on tape at his inauguration that Elon Musk rigged it for him. President Biden didn't lose the Democrats the election...Trump stole it...again. Get on that story.
Why is this intel we need to know? You lot are so focused on ignoring everything this current admin is doing that you will need to atone until rapture.
Who the fuck cares. Is there anything else going on the last 120 days that impact the health and welfare of millions here and around the world? FFS, do you job.
@nbcnews.com if you are not reporting on the cognitive decline and insane rantings of the current president then you can respectfully go fuck yourself. This stuff about Biden is a distraction.
Who cares? He is no longer President. When he was, his administration was doing just fine, strengthening the economy and protecting human rights. No drama only progress.
Not sure I should be the one telling you this - but, this is not news. However, the mental acuity and growing cognitive impairment of our current executive is relevant. Cover that @nbcnews.com
NBC made this dude with the Apprentice. Where’s the story on how that network got us into this mess. Same bd Tapper is hawking on his show. Still waiting on the admission that Tapper and Bash ambushed Biden and now Tapper’s capitalizing on his duplicity.
So this is what you’re going to spend your time on? A former president. Reagan’s administration hid outright Alzheimer’s during his presidency and we got crickets. Now we have Trump who is obviously struggling but that isn’t important to you.
This is why I’ve moved onto to alternative news sources
This is not News NBC. You know what is news though? The disaster that CNN created for themselves pursuing a right-wing audience. Have you seen their ratings since Zucker left?
Who cares. Start to dissect the current Demented in Chief. Trump can't remember his own children's names. Stop giving Trump a pass with all this Biden crap. Biden is not the one destroying our country. Trump is. Report on that. You need to do better NBC. Independent media is kicking your ass.
And I am 66 can’t remember when the
Exact date when my sister died .
The felon can’t remember where the Olympic Games are ,he thinks they are in New York stadium. Biden had a great administration to help make decisions ,The felon has idiots that say nothing/ “that’s why our economy is so bad .
If someone were to tell you that the current president is dismantling our democracy piece by piece, would you cover that instead of telling us that an old person is old?
Or does your fear of pissing him off supersede real journalism?
I’m 51, and I just searched for 5 minutes for sunglasses that were already in my pocket. And I certainly don’t remember what I had for breakfast on April 7th. 🤣
Who cares!!!!!! Where is your coverage of Trump lying to the World, kidnapping citizens and breaking laws! You and the rest of the mainstream media own a huge part of where we are NOW!
My son died barely 3 years ago, yet sometimes I have to stop and think what year. The death of a child is traumatic, time loses all meaning. Yet I remember exactly where I was standing when I was told. I remember the look of shock on my husband's face. Biden remembers every minute of Beau's death.
This is the news you’re choosing to report? Newsflash: Biden is not the president. The felon holding that office currently is destroying the country and consorting with enemies. Oh, and he is old and demented
And now we have a fascist in office that’s gutting every government department and cutting every service to pay for tax cuts for his friends and is being controlled by whoever has spare change. WHO CARES?
NBC won’t cover that though, apparently our ex-president’s health is more important than our current one’s (mentally, emotionally, physically). Fuck NBC for this.
Who gives a fuck! Trump is dismantling and selling America out to the highest bidder and this is the best fucking story you could come up with to publish…
Ronald Reagan couldn't even remember his last name. George W. couldn't identify countries on a map. The felon cosplaying as president right now could speak a complete sentence if his life depended on it. What is wrong with you NBC News?? I thought you were better than this. Shame on you.
My sister, grandfather, grandmother, and great mother all passed. I couldn't tell you the year of 3 of them, and I only remember my grandmother because it was last year.
I don’t remember the year or date of when my father passed away. What can be said … the nation’s credit rating didn’t fall under Biden’s Presidency. We had economic & job growth. No measles outbreak. No Fox News ppl in the White House. I’ll take Biden’s memory lapses over this idiots incompetence.
Ok, he’s older and aging and that’s normal. We didn’t start a war, the economy and job growth improved during his tenure. Sounds like there was great teamwork.
Next.
This IS NOT NEWS. NOT. NEWS. There are other MUCH more important things you could be reporting on ... like what's going on, or not going on, in Washington D.C., that is (in case you're unawares) the attempts to dismantle American democracy.
So what? He isn’t president now, he isn’t running again and he did a far, far better job than the current occupant who is babbling nonsense most of the time.
Why post this now? Media should be unrelenting in it's criticism of the obviously mental deficiency of Trump. For God's sake, he thinks Mattel is a country!!
Stop reporting on the past!! Focus on the mess in front of us. Media holds responsibility in the chaos we are in. Report on the feeble, incoherent, old man currently in the White House! How about the cabinet members Republicans put in place to play dress up? NONE are truly qualified.
Why the fuhk are we talking about Biden? He withdrew and we gave America a choice of Harris, which was rejected. And you have a mentally compromised president now and you stay quiet. Biden in that state is still better than the criminal in office now. F off!
Stop NBC!! Cover the corruption of the current president! His family is scamming on crypto, real estate, sexual assault, and all you can report on is President Biden. We did well under Biden, and awful under the orange convicted felon.
We've got a cruel, authoritarian, insane dictator in the WH who had masked, armed, unidentified thugs picking people off the streets and disappearing them and THIS is what you want to discuss. F**k YOU @nbcnews.com
Your news organization is a piece of shit. Not worthy of wiping your ass with. We have an incompetent demented man in the oval office and this is what you’re writing about. Go fuck yourself.
Oh really? Did he think that there were airports during the American Revolution? Or that immigrants are eating pets? Or that protesters were throwing cans of TUNA? Or that windmills cause cancer? Yeah,he didn't. Start calling out Trump on HIS mental unfitness. It's TIME!
🙄 NBC, *Donald Trump* is president. Trump has the mind of a child, the heart of a dictator, and the soul of a grifter. Trump's administration is literally causing death & destruction.
➡️ How about focusing on the horrors you learn about *Trump* from the hours of audio and video you record each week?
What is disturbing is the ineptitude of the dems letting an elderly individual with memory challenges run for president when they should’ve an open primary to pick the best candidate.
He has never been convicted of criminal fraud, held liable for sexual abuse or tried to overturn an election by sending thugs to the US Capitol who beat up and assaulted police. Far better in every way than the scummy con who occupies the presidency now.

How is this news ?
What is the goal with this cutting edge journalism ?
Impeach him now ?
Low effort reporting.
Really, just trash.
My mother was very important to be but although I remember clearly the circumstances of her death, I often do not remember the year. That is a cruel thing to judge on.
Gosh dang…

That’s what Dictators do.
Systematically Destroy Trust.
You know he's no longer President, right?

But just because you are getting older and declining does not mean you cannot THINK about complex matters.
Biden is more thoughtful on his worst day than Trump could ever be on his best.
Joe Biden is no longer in public life….. report on the criminal who occupies the White House at the moment
This is why I’ve moved onto to alternative news sources

Biden doesn’t remember that at 82. Meanwhile I’m 28 and I don’t remember the last time I had the flu.
Nobody cares.
Just more media bullshit focusing on irrelevant minutiae as the US sinks into chaos, economic collapse and autocracy.
Next.
BiDeN dOeSn’T rEmEmBeR soMeThInG.
Get a fucking clue.
News Flash: Biden was old. Biden is not running for anything.
It's obvious Trump's recent blathering has made the regime's press talking points shift to Biden. Deflection and projection as usual.
Last time I checked, Joe Biden wasn’t convicted of 34 felonies and transferred power peacefully on January 20th.
the White House released audio meant to make Joe Biden look bad to Axios hours after the US's credit rating was downgraded.
Stomp the dictator in office now.

Look what you assholes been bending the knee for! Sleepy Joe my ass!!
