- US President Joe Biden has blamed his debate performance last week on jet lag, telling reporters that he "wasn't very smart" for "travelling around the world a couple of times" before the debate.
Biden, 81, last returned from travel on 15 June, nearly two weeks ahead of the 27 June debate.
The Democratic presidential candidate appeared to struggle through some responses during a debate with former President Donald Trump last Thursday.

if it takes more than 2 weeks for you to recover from a jet lag, this is not the job for you
It takes one day per hour of time difference. So two weeks is reasonable.
@@ChenLiYaun How would you know?
I support beating Medicare.
@@tsm784 His last trip was to Central Europe. 6 hours time difference.
@@tsm784there is a bedroom on airforce one.
Took him nearly a week to come up with this excuse!
Biden can’t hear, see and speak indeed.
You'd be surprised how little they think of for themselves. What do you think all the advisors and strategists are there for? It's the same thing with Trump, Obama, everyone. Trump however is a pretty big outlier, although there are surely those people around him, but he's still known to ad-lib more than anyone, although he still gets talking points he's supposed to reach even if he does it in his own way.
Spent a week at Camp David resting and he was still jet lagged? Dementia is not curable.
These are the people who say dudes can be chics.
yes it is degenerative and progressive mental disease 😁
Jet lag usually takes about one day per time zone flown to recover, it usually takes older adults longer to recover. So Biden flew about 8 time zones and it's not unreasonable to say he was still jet lagged.
@@johnslade7540which is a BIG problem right? A president flies around a lot. If he gets this kind of jet lag to the point of looking like he has dementia. Thats a problem.
@@wilwester He was also sick with a bad cold, you could hear it in his voice. Just to be CLEAR, I would rather have Biden serve as President from a hospital bed on a ventilator, than Trump. Have you heard what Trump has recently said? He wants to put Liz Cheney before a military Tribunal for investigating his insurrection in 2021. We don't need a dictator.
A person suffering from any sort of cognitive decline rarely accepts it.
@@John_Bradbury Ask Trump. He veered off into bragging about golfing when asked how would he prove to Americans (that rejected his candidacy in 2020) that he's fit to serve.
@@John_Bradbury Criminals like Trump deny things, too.
So true.
and get increasingly violent as the disease progresses.
3 1/2 years of jetlag. Must have been one hell of a flight

They're laughing at us and think we're dumb enough to not notice.
Last week it was a conspiracy theory to suggest he was incapable now it’s out in the open.
The media lie and then lie again.
@@alexbarbosa4666 I know the people that donate to Trump's lawyers' bills are that dumb.
You did vote for him in 2020.
@SpiderSimpleton who pays for Hunter Bidens crack?
@@studentdrake sure he got 81 million votes. It’s just a coincidence that they sent out 80 million ballots with zero security that year.
His flight took 81 years.
@@SecwetGwiwer Biden must've stopped flying long enough to kick Trump's ass in 2020. Had him crying to thenrubes and everything. It was glorious!
Jet lagg?? it's a two hour flight. From Baltimore Maryland to Atlanta is less than 2 hours. Plus a week off. 🙄
he's blaming it cause he's from a different time zone,THATS GANGSTA
JET LAG from two weeks before the debate ????????????? 2:23
Yeah,
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 3 and a half years of jet lag
It took him more then a week to realise how bad he did
*badly
cos jill told him what a gooood boy he was
Jet lag? More like brain lag.
No. It was brain lag
Damage control activated! 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖
Honestly, next time, just blame it on the full moon or Mercury in retrograde-it’s more believable.
It doesn't take 12 days to recover from jet lag. That international trip ended 12 days before the debate. What happened to I had a cold lie?
If he did have a cold, did it last for 2 years. It is hard to have dementia and not have a telepropter to tell him what to say. Just having a bad night is an indication that his dementia is at the early stages and will be getting worse.
He's had jet lag for a year and a half? Wow. Also ... how does jet lag explain 3.5 years of horrendous policies and a wide-open border?
If you care about world peace and democracy you would want him to step down. Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin are meeting as we speak and are hoping to god that Biden is not replaced or that trump is elected. They need to replace him with a strong and dynamic democrat
name me a strong dynamic democrat
Obama must be in panic mode
his cook best watch out
He needs to pass the torch to the next democrat candidate if they’re serious about winning the election
i want him to stay in so we can get someone who loves america in there. FJB
That is pretty much an admission that he isn't fit to do the job! What if war breaks out and "Oh dear I'm jet lagged, can't deal with that!" ?!
Thanks, BBC for stating North America and not America, America is the whole COntinent!
WTF? North America is the continent, not America. You're definitely trolling.
The Americas is North and South America combined that is the whole continent 🌎
America is the country the USA🇺🇸🗽
Canada is the country Canada 🇨🇦
England is the universe 🏴
@@6YJI9 Gonna be pedantic and say America is the supercontinent?
@@6YJI9 CAn a troll say, eat a rooster? u know what I mean jajaja
No way to remove him except his cabinet conceeding to reality and admitting he is unfit.
He was watching the latest season of Jet Lag: The Game on TH-cam!
Mr B needs to be in hospital and take rest for couple of years .
What happened to his cold???
He lost the plot years ago along with all the other decrepit candidates 🙄
Airforce one has a private sleeping quarters. There really is no excuse.
His memory is flying away faster than his aging. The man needs dementia therapy not presidential campaign.
😂😂😂 so there were "fake" videos.
Then the cold.
Now jetlag
🙂 Mr. Biden. You better stay home because there gonna be four tough years to come for America, for us your allias and for the world generally. So you probably will need to travel a lot and we don't need to be embarrassed after every flight you'll have.
Well, it’s not like it’s the first time. People have been talking about this for several years now
He's already forgotten he blamed it on a cold. Wow
We have nowhere to go once Europe & America is gone.... They still have their homelands.
Remigration - You owe it to your kids. 🙏
They should organize another debate asap to afford him the opportunity to prove doubters wrong
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?!
@@asadmalik2464 Trump is both old and a felon
Which is unfortunately not really convincing. He was many days relaxing and preparing in Camp David.
Then fire his team for enabling him to do this. Make no mistake on what this election means to the free world. If he doesn't understand this, he needs to step aside
US is in desperate need of a better, younger candidate
He was also attacked by Corn Pop before the debate.
The geriatric palliative care home has to deal with hundreds of "jet lagged" patients everyday!
"Ты все пела и плесала так поди ка попляши!" Великолепный дед.
✅ I blame the American Voters! ☑
as a us voter i sadly agree with you but i feel it would be different if msnbc and cnn also abc and cbs would quit covering for him
He will be pre-recording all his talks and have them cut and pasted to remove and hide any speech mumbles and gafs.
Fact check: his last flight was more than a week before the debate.........
he gets jet lag going down the stairs
Jet lag after 12 days ??? Please
Feels like he has had jet lag over the past 4 years.
What a bunch of malarkey LOL
He probably gets jet lag every day then.
He should respect himself and step aside.
This is self-actualization.
He also lied here. What is the difference between him and Trump then?
It's interestong BBC didn't mention the 2 weeks on the thumdnail
I also develop temporary dementia as a result of jet lag very standard stuff
Liar liar pants on fire...
@@DJDAVINCI Of fire not of
@@tabithatotten on fire 🤭😅
@@DJDAVINCI I dig what youre saying about Kenya. Friend of mine was there for the week. Not good not good
Here comes the excuses 😂
Er airforce one has a bed in the presidential suite!!!!! Jet lag my backside. 😂
Did she say fortnite? 1:03 😂😂😂
😂😂
Sad that you don't know what the word means, I don't blame you though I blame our education system for failing you so bad.
😂😂😂 good catch
Fortnite means 2 weeks in British English and has been used for hundreds of years. Most Americans just say 2 weeks except for Taylor Swift obviously.
It means 2 weeks
Joe is lagging, its not the jet.
first it was a cold. Now it’s jet lag.
Wow so what’s he blame for the last 3 years
The Camp David jet lag.
Someone else, someone else, someone else, someone else, someone else, someone else, someone else……both candidates suck, on both sides!
Yes, of course. Jet lag.
He needs to step aside
That’s like blaming global warming on my microwave
But airforce one was designed to avoid such excuses 😂, could be easier for u to said " I am old , what else would expect from a person like me " ,
apparently now its not the cold, he supposedly had
Haha the guy looked like he was lost in space.
Imagine 5 years of this nonsense..
Vote Reform
he jets off for long weekends all the time he cant do the job its simple as that
Where were his handlers?
congratulating themselves on a job well done
⛔STOP ELDER ABUSE ⛔
Jet lag, that's what I tell my girlfriend when I can't finish
Don't believe your lying eyes.
Everlasting jet lag 😂
Can't wait till movie is released "weekend at bidens"🤣🤣🤣
Sure! He still hasn’t landed
With all due respect to Joe Biden, people can clearly see his cognitive decline. Out of respect for the American people and positon of commander in chief, the man should gracefully step aside and allow a competent candidate to run on his behalf. Anyone encouraging this man to keep running should be ashamed of themseles. Joe Biden should be in a top tier retirement community with 24/7 around the clock assistance.
It's a reflection of the USA today and how it's been since the 1960s.
The ever-selfish baby Boomers and those who think like them including Biden and Trump are too self-absorbed to think of anything besides how wonderful they are and thus they think they are entitled to continue to do as they see fit and nothing else. That generation and those who think like them are now striving to hold on to what they are/have, and their old age only compounds their negative impact for the rest of us. It's been like this since the 1960s.
I think it's the a , a , so, a anyway.
Nice try
Dementia lag.
Wow, I've never seen so much utter contempt for the American voters as I see from both candidates. "What dumb addlepated simpletons you all are. How dare you question my validity to run based on your own observations. Now shut up and make me your king"
I blame his old age
He will be fine no problem for him just the negative lame sad judgers
Maybe constipation too.
Two full weeks since he last flew any great distance and a whole weeks holiday before the debate "jet lag" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank God he didn't blame putin 😅
Jet lag all the way from Camp David! The World laughs at America.
they are already thinking up excuses for his dismal upcoming september debate
Both Biden and Trump are getting old.
Come on man! Quit already. Save some of your dignity and legacy
President Biden Sounded very hoarse and cough,sounds reasonable.Ive had the same
Frist it was the cold, now its jetlag. Next week the reason is going be an asteroid that's headed for Earth.
@@-VForValhalla- “Frist”?
You’re talking negatively about how someone else acts, and that’s how you’re happy to present it?
Get a grip. 🤣
I blame dementia!! Let’s go Brandon!!
Bill Maher is spot on. Democrats - “We can’t abandon Biden”. The average voter - “What about me? You have abandoned me. I have no one to vote for”
As a president , jetlag doesnt ruin you, you ruin a jetlag, well, unless your biden ofc
Man he’s really this selfish?
He has the misguided idea that only he can beat Trump.
He doesn't see that he no longer has what it takes (and neither does Trump).
IS HE GONA NEED2TAKE NAPS IF NUCLEAR WAR BRAKES OUT?
He should off from Elections.
