Asked about a recent book on President Joe Biden which suggested people around him had seen signs of cognitive and physical decline, Clinton said he never saw any cognitive decline, and did not feel that Biden was unfit to run for President. "I thought he was a good president. The only concern I thought he had to deal with was, could anybody do that job until they were 86?" Clinton said. "And we'd had several long talks. I had never seen him and walked away thinking, He can't do this anymore. He was always on top of his briefs.
"I haven't read the book. And I saw President Biden not very long ago, and I thought he was in good shape. But the book didn't register with me 'cause I never saw him that way."
Asked why he hasn't read the book, Clinton replied, "I didn't want to. 'Cause he's not president anymore, and I think he did a good job. And I think we are facing challenges today without precedent in our history. And some people are trying to use this as a way to blame him for the fact that Trump was reelected."
The divide in America is between left and right. It's between people who think it's okay for Trump to post dumbshit and paranoid conspiracy theories (Biden was executed in 2020 & replaced by a clone/double/robot!) and those who say, WTF?

Former President Joe Biden has delivered the first remarks since he announced he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer, speaking in a steady voice during a somber Memorial Day gathering and later smiling and saying he’s “feeling good.”

Play MAGA games, lose major clients

Top law firms bent the knee to Trump, offering up to $1B in pro bono work to dodge executive retaliation.
Now it’s backfiring. Microsoft, Morgan Stanley, Oracle, and McDonald’s are cutting ties and moving to firms that didn’t fold.

Boulder attack suspect used a flamethrower in antisemitic attack
Here's what we know
• Colorado attack: A man used a flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to set people on fire Sunday at a Jewish community event in Boulder, Colorado, held in support of hostages in Gaza. He injured at least eight people ranging in age from 52 to 88 before being detained.
• Suspect identified: The FBI identified the lone suspect as Mohamed Sabry Soliman and said he yelled “Free Palestine!” during the attack. He faces multiple felony charges and is expected to appear in court later this afternoon.
Did you read the book about Joe’s decline?

Big Bill: No because he’s not the president anymore and he did a good job when he was the president.
