You've probably already seen many videos of President Biden at the G7 summit wandering, meandering and getting distracted. However, true to George Orwell, The Party has come to the rescue to tell you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears when it comes to the president we've all seen and heard for these past 3.5 years.
The New York Post this morning put it this way:

Even if you'd never seen or heard anything from Joe Biden in the last few months, one way you might suspect there's something wrong is that his defenders are forced to say "he's fine and to say otherwise is disinformation."
The videos of Biden at the G7 have sparked another round of that kind of attempted defense:

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" also got the memo from the DNC (video via Grabien News' Tom Elliott):

Morning Joe heralds Biden's performance at G7 despite "cheap fakes" & "vicious lies" that he appeared lost & confused.

You know they're really pushing it when the words "strong job" are used, which do not apply to anything this president says or does.
Lol that proof that you can see with your eyes, ignore that…that’s disinformation.

They have to censor the truth.

Because it’s so damning seeing how bad he really is.
If Biden was really "sharp as a tack" behind the scenes as the Dems claim they would have already released the Hur interview audio, but instead Merrick Garland's sleeping with it under his pillow at night to guard the tape.
Neither one of them can make eye contact with each other or the camera while claiming Biden is normal.

Perhaps they're afraid they'd start laughing uncontrollably.

Ah yes, we're "respected on the world stage" again!
One thing that's hilarious: liberals long denied that NBC/MSNBC are DNC propaganda outlets by pointing to Joe Scarborough, who, they claimed, was a far-right activist.

Now the show he hosts exceeds North Korean propaganda to glorify Joe Biden as a strong and powerful leader: https://t.co/xfIwhOkr2f
For some reason I'm reminded of the famous Margaret Thatcher quote: "Being powerful is like being a lady; if you have to tell people you are, you aren't."
The same holds true for strong, powerful and competent leaders. Biden is none of that no matter how hard the "Morning Joe" crew tries to convince everybody otherwise.
