A senator from Joe Biden’s Democratic Party, Sheldon Whitehouse, has asked for reassurances about the US president’s health, saying the American public wanted to be sure his dismal debate performance was just an “anomaly.”
In the Thursday night debate, Biden sometimes lost his train of thought, gave halting responses, or stared blankly with his mouth agape. For months, the White House has downplayed any concerns about the president’s physical and mental health, despite the fact that his gait has visibly slowed and stiffened, and his sentences sometimes trail off.
Others have asked Biden to respond directly to the concerns, by either taking part in press conferences or sitting down for interviews with journalists.
