Following the total collapse of Biden’s candidacy during the first presidential debate, the rush was on to prove that the president was not, in fact, senile. One of the first attempts are resetting the deck was a series of radio interviews in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
As RedState reported, those didn’t go well, with the president weirdly proclaiming himself the be “the first black woman to serve with a black president,” among several other verbal miscues. Now, we are learning more about how those interviews were conducted, and it’s adding another layer to Biden’s situation.
According to a new report from The New York Times, the questions asked in those interviews were pre-written by the White House and submitted to the hosts.
Holy smokes.
The Biden camp has been pointing to the local radio interviews he did after the debate as evidence that he’s fine, but the radio hosts who conducted those interviews told CNN this morning the questions were scripted and provided by the White House. pic.twitter.com/ttExWKE7Vz

The questions asked of President Biden by two radio interviewers this week were provided in advance to the hosts by members of Mr. Biden’s team, one of the hosts said Saturday morning on CNN.
Andrea Lawful-Sanders, the host of “The Source” on WURD in Philadelphia, said Biden officials provided her with a list of eight questions ahead of the interview on Wednesday.
“The questions were sent to me for approval; I approved of them,” she told Victor Blackwell, the host of “First of All” on CNN. Asked if it was the White House that sent the questions to her in advance, she said it was.
“I got several questions — eight of them,” she said. “And the four that were chosen were the ones that I approved.”
In other words, Biden had advance notice of everything he was going to be asked. Does that sound like someone of sound mind, capable of fulfilling the duties of his office? These interviews were supposed to prove that the president was fine and that all the talk of his senility was manufactured. Instead, this latest revelation does the exact opposite. What an absolute trainwreck this administration and campaign are.
Rest assured, this has likely been going on for a long time. It’s only getting reported now because the press is scrambling to save face after Biden exposed their cover-up on live television in front of tens of millions of Americans. The Times could have investigated when the president was caught with a reporter’s name and her question on a cheat sheet. They could have pushed back when the White House began pre-selecting reporters, again suggesting that questions were being screened.
The Times and other mainstream outlets didn’t do that, though. They were too concerned with protecting the Democratic Party. Only because the facade was ripped down by Biden himself have they changed course, and that’s almost certainly a temporary development.
This entire ordeal continues to be a total embarrassment for the nation. Our adversaries have to be laughing out loud at how ridiculous this all is. We are run by selfish elites who would rather put the entire world in jeopardy than relinquish power.
I’ll leave you with this thought. These interviews were scripted, and Biden still managed to present as completely gone mentally. That’s how bad off he is.
