Hey, so this actually is a form of fake news. The tweet specifically ignores the context of the conversation - Nato. Here are some other quotes from President Biden during this interview:
“I asked the — our NATO Allies that we bring on the group from the South Pacific: Australia, New Zealand, Japan-”
“And, by the way, I was able to get 50 other nations — 50 — five-zero — to support Ukraine. Fifty. And we were able to bring about a coalition between — in — of Europe and Asia — Japan and South Korea.”
“I just met with — we’ve talked about AUKUS and we talked about the relationship between Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, the United States. We’re making the world safer and stronger, because we have to deal with a new arrangement that exists in the world”
Listen, I don’t give a shit about Biden, but I hate fake news. South Korea and Japan have had 80 years of history now post WW2, and it is bizarre to claim that Biden is out of his mind for saying “I brought them both to the table to help support ukraine”. Context matters, and your goddamn bad faith interpretation of literally goddamn everything is annoying as hell. Shame on y'all
everyone in the notes is taking the original tweet at face value and I’m terrified for the country as a result
but also like. WHY would you assume that’s something he would just Say? why wouldn’t you look it up and see what the context was?
guys. he’s not actually doddering and losing it. he remains a standard politician, with all that implies, but still mentally together. that’s media spin and you should know better than to trust it at this point
