Dr. Jill insisted that she had never seen anything to indicate that Joe Biden was in cognitive decline during an interview with CBS Mornings host Rita Braver.
Jill Biden sat down for an interview with CBS Mornings to discuss life after the White House.
“Did you ever see signs that [Biden] was falling into cognitive decline?” Rita Braver asked Jill Biden.
“No,” Jill Biden said.
Rita Braver was not buying Jill Biden’s claim.
“No?” Rita Braver asked.
“No,” Jill Biden insisted.
“Truly?” Rita Braver asked.
“No,” Jill Biden said.
“Oh, he was definitely aging; I mean, we were all aging,” Jill added. “So, yes, he was slowing down.”
“People were saying he wasn’t the same Joe Biden,” Rita Braver said.
“Well, I don’t think that’s true,” Jill said.
She continued, “He was the same, the essence of the same Joe Biden, but yeah, he was slowing down. He was getting older.”
“It’s a very intense job. I think it ages you quickly. Look at the other presidents, I mean, in comparison, when they started in office and got out of office. It was natural aging,” Jill Biden insisted.
