Seems to have gone off the rails. His rantings are no longer interesting or cogent.

he spoke so rapidly that I had trouble understanding him. My thought was, 'is he on speed?'

I remember when we were going to be dragged kicking and screaming to their side. Still waiting for acknowledgement of failed policies and why we were CORRECT all along. The Truth, the same yesterday, today and forever.

Dean Phillips says Biden has experienced physical, communication decline
Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Dean Phillips (Minn.) said President Biden has experienced a physical and communication decline, as fears of the presidents age swarm his reelection efforts.
Look: Im an American, I want to respect my presidents. I do respect President Biden, Phillips told Fox Newss Sean Hannity.
Im not seeing cognitive decline. Of course, were seeing physical and communication decline. I think thats self-evident by any video, but I dont think that is fair, Phillips continued. But hes an 81-year-old man. Hes a human being. Donald Trumps 77.
Biden would be 86 by the end of a second term. His age is frequently discussed on the 2024 presidential campaign, as people claim it is time for a younger leader and have concerns over his well-being.
Former President Trump has hit Biden over his age, recently trolling the incumbent in an ad that refers to the White House as a senior living facility. Trump will turn 78 in June.
In his interview Thursday, Phillips reiterated a point hes made throughout his campaign: Much of the country is looking for change and doesnt want either Biden or Trump as president again, the Minnesota Democrat said.
Look: Im running for change. I think we can do this so much better. I love my Republican colleagues; I love my Democratic colleagues, he said.
Phillips continued, saying were handing the keys to this country to both the far right and the far left, and called himself part of the exhausted majority in the middle.
