A 38-second video clip of Joe Biden is going viral after the White House staff abruptly interrupted and silenced reporters.
Biden told reporters, “Why don’t I stop and take any questions you might have?”
Only seconds later, as reporters attempted to ask questions, White House staffers quickly ushered reporters out of the room. Watch for yourself:

6-time Emmy Award-Winning Journalist Harris Faulkner of Fox News reacted, “So that was so awkward right then.”
“Clearly the president did not know when you say, ‘Can I take any questions,’ all of the media in the room might have a few,” Faulkner continued.
This certainly isn’t the first time that staffers have intervened to save Biden, who is widely suspected of suffering from dementia.
The White House decided to abruptly cut the feed of Biden during a press briefing in Boise, Idaho.
After speaking for much of the briefing, Biden said he wanted to hear more from George Geissler of the National Association of State Foresters. “Can I ask you a question?” Biden asked.
“Of course,” Geissler responded. “One of the things that I’ve been working on with some others is —” Biden said before being cut off mid-sentence.
Fox News requested an explanation from the White House, but they did not respond. Watch the clip:

Former White House physician Ronny Jackson, who was the doctor for both Obama and Trump, noted that something is “wrong” with Biden.
Jackson told Fox News that he believes Biden could be forced to resign or could face the 25th Amendment over issues related to his fitness for office.
“Something’s SERIOUSLY wrong with Biden,” Jackson wrote on social media. “And it’s only going to get WORSE! It’s past the point of embarrassment.”
Jackson continued, “He’s lost. He’s confused. He can barely put a coherent sentence together.”
“He MUST have a cognitive exam and release the results!” Jackson added.
