Democrats Worried About Biden’s SOTU Address, Fear Mistakes Will Wreck Everything – ‘We Are All Nervous’

Some Democrats aren’t convinced that President Joe Biden can make it through Thursday’s State of the Union address without at least one embarrassing gaffe.

One Democratic member of the House of Representatives confessed his or her anxieties over the event when speaking to Axios.

“We are all nervous,” the unnamed representative said of the speech.

The Democrat also questioned Biden’s “ability to speak without blowing things.”

Another anonymous Democrat also expressed fear of embarrassing verbal lapses — while seeking to deflect to the speaking style of former President Donald Trump.

“Listen, Trump has made rhetorical slips.”

Biden is going to make rhetoric slips. I think the key is his energy level.”

Does this make you worried about Biden’s mental state?

The concerns of the Democrats aren’t without basis.

Biden has struggled at times with public speaking since beginning his candidacy for president in 2019, at times forgetting crucial details and experiencing mental lapses.

Biden couldn’t make it through his 2023 speech without multiple highlight-reel-quality gaffes, according to the New York Post.

Biden incorrectly referred to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer as the minority leader — before appearing to forget the name of the Ukrainian ambassador to the United States, who was in attendance.

The president paused awkwardly before inviting Ambassador Oksana Markarova to stand before Congress.

Biden released a promotional video touting his upcoming speech Thursday morning. In it, he spoke with Hollywood actors known for playing the roles of historical presidents.

Biden will deliver his 2024 State of the Union address at the age of 81 years old — the oldest of any American president in history.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

 

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

 

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans.
