Joy Reid Claims Biden’s Garbled Speech Is Proof His Age Is Not A Factor – Brit Hume Disagrees

MSNBC host Joy Reid responded to President Joe Biden’s second State of the Union address — which, according to a number of people watching, was Slogans abound in this cluttered environment and fumbles — by claiming it was proof positive that age was not a limiting factor for him. Brit Hume, Fox News’ political analyst, said the contrary.

Reid offered Reid her opinion after the speech ended. “There’s a lot of anxiety in the Democratic political world about Biden’s age. He shattered that tonight. He’s obviously … it’s similar to what Nancy Pelosi is able to do. There’s certain things that an experienced politician can do … that an inexperienced politician, even a Kevin McCarthy, who’s been around a long time, but is obviously not as ready for primetime as Joe Biden.”

Reid suggested that Biden had learned from his U.S. negotiation experience. Senator Reid added that he had been in negotiations personally with many of the people in the room, and that he had used that experience as president.

As Fox News’ senior political analyst, Hume argued that Biden’s speech had not been reassuring at all for those who might be concerned that age was getting the best of him.

Hume noted that he had been to a few State of the Union speeches. “And looking at this one and this man giving it, I think that there are two ways to look at this speech.”

He said that people can look at the speech’s content and determine if it is factual and has an impact, or they can look at Biden’s appearance and the way he sounded when delivering the speech.

“The other way is looking at this man, this 80-year-old man, the oldest president I guess ever, and whether he got through the speech well,” Hume continued. “It seemed to me there was an awful lot of stumbling and slurring and words left out and so on. So the question becomes this: does someone sitting at home worried about the future of our country — perhaps suffering from inflation and the other maladies, worried about crime, worried about the border — look at this man delivering this speech tonight and say, ‘I have confidence to give him four more years. He’s the man who’s led our nation so well, he’s fully in command’?”

“Or do they have doubts?” He concluded. “Doubts that they may already harbor based on Afghanistan and certain other things. I have considerable doubt as to whether this was a confidence-inspiring speech tonight.”
