Democratic Congressman Argues Biden Was Fit To Be President ‘All The Way Through January 2029’

The representative, who’s two years older than Biden, said “it’s not all about age.”

Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) revealed that he still has faith that former President Joe Biden would’ve been fit to be president again for another four-year term.

While appearing on Sunday’s episode of CNN’s “State of the Union,” the congressman told host Jake Tapper that he “never saw anything” that was “out of the ordinary” about Biden’s cognitive function amid a growing investigation into the “cover up of President Biden’s mental decline.”

“I talked to him on the telephone very often,” Clyburn began. “And I never saw anything that I thought was outside of the ordinary.”

Referencing his own father as an example, Clyburn said he watched his dad “reach the age of 80” but declared it “didn’t bother his mental capacity at all.”

“So I never saw anything I thought was unusual,” he said of Biden. “Did he talk as swiftly as he used to talk? No, he didn’t. Did he walk as swiftly? No, he didn’t. But that is to be expected.”
