On Tuesday, renowned neurosurgeon and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Ben Carson appeared on Newmax’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight” and discussed President Joe Biden running for re-election in 2024.
In light of Biden’s declining mental health and numerous public gaffes, Carson said he believes Biden’s campaign is “dangerous.”
He told Schmitt, “Well, it’s so dangerous because, what if we’re in a situation where the leader of the free world has to make a split-second decision? What do we do then when we can’t put together the group of people who are managing him?”
Carson added, “This is a real serious problem, and our enemies are acutely aware of this. I’m sure we’re the laughingstock of the world. But if you want to do something, and you don’t want an effective response from the United States, you need to do it while this man is the president.”
This is not the first time he has commented on the president’s declining health. In November, Carson pointed out the many indicators showing that Biden likely has dementia.
He started out by noting that Biden aggressively declining to take a cognitive test is the first sign as it is “typical of people in early stages of decline, to become aggressive and very defensive about who they are. It tells you that they know a little bit about what’s going on. They don’t want you to know.”
Carson also pointed out numerous instances of Biden “lacking inhibitions” when he interacts with women and children.
“That’s so sad. I actually feel sorry for him, because it’s clear that he’s not in contact with what he wants to be able to say,” Carson said at the time.
He also mentioned Biden’s racially intensive comments towards black people, one time in which he said, “if you have a problem figuring out if you’re for me or Trump, you ain’t black,” which is a “classic example of someone not having the ability to screen what he says,” Carson argued.
