The report outlines instances in which Biden had difficulty remembering important details and events, such as when he served as vice president or the exact date of his son Beau’s death.
“Anyone with their eyes open can see what’s going on,” Phillips said of Biden. “I think it’s unfortunate. I think it’s embarrassing. And I think it’s sad.

“Brian, I’m trying to encourage Americans on the center right and the center left to come together as a tired majority, because we’re becoming more and more laughed at around the world.” said Phillips. FOX News’ Brian Kilmeade.
”[W]We all see his speech and decline with our own eyes. He’s an 81-year-old man,” Phillips said, adding that Biden would serve as president until 2029 if re-elected.
The Minnesota congressman’s high-profile primary challenge to Biden has frustrated some members of his party, but the congressman has yet to resonate in a meaningful way. Biden won 96% of the vote in this week’s South Carolina Democratic primary, but Phillips finished third behind Biden and Marianne Williamson with just 1.7%.
Phillips told Kilmeade that both former President Trump and Biden are too old to serve as president.
“I know most Americans feel the same way,” Phillips said. “What bothers me is a political system, a duopoly, that increasingly only elevates people who are less valued.”
Phillips, who has previously criticized the media for denying him airtime, said it was important for mainstream media to help people “wake up” to Biden’s failed political opportunity.
“If people don’t wake up soon, we’re going to have a really serious problem,” Phillips said. “When millions of people get their news from a single source, It influences people’s opinions.”

“Look at the support numbers. They’re the lowest in presidential history,” he continued. “President Biden is 20 points lower than Jimmy Carter in January 1980. He is 5 points lower than former President Trump at the same time. Every opinion poll shows that President Biden is losing in the battlegrounds. “Brian, I come from a business background and I can’t imagine politicians doing the same thing.” “At the end of the day, we can’t look at the data-based truth. It’s only going to get worse.” .I don’t think what happened yesterday will improve the president’s position.”
