Rand Paul (R-KY) stated that we shouldn\u2019t have to treat President Joe Biden like someone who is declining cognitively by having to help him say what he really means, Biden\u2019s \u201cintemperate speech\u201d is \u201ca national security risk.\u201d And Biden lives \u201cin an alternate universe where he just says they\u2019re not true and he didn\u2019t say them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Host Jesse Watters asked, [relevant exchange begins around 4:25] \u201cAre you surprised by these comments, Senator?\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Paul said, \u201cWell, you know, a lot of times when you\u2019re around somebody who\u2019s in cognitive decline, you find yourself trying to help them with a sentence, trying to help them complete it, and say, oh no, that\u2019s not what you really mean. Let me help you complete the sentence. But we shouldn\u2019t have to do that for the commander-in-chief. And it is actually a national security risk. Because he\u2019s sending signals that no one in their right mind would want to send to Russia at this point. We aren\u2019t trying to replace Putin in Russia, we aren\u2019t trying to have regime change, we\u2019re not sending troops into Ukraine, and we\u2019re not going to respond in kind with chemical weapons. So, none of those things are true.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Paul continued, \u201cBut, you know, he lives in an alternate universe where he just says they\u2019re not true and he didn\u2019t say them. So, I guess you\u2019re supposed to look the other way. But even the left-wing media is noticing these gaffes. So, I do think that it is a real problem. And there\u2019s a humorous angle to this, but it\u2019s really not funny. I mean, because we\u2019re worried about what he\u2019s saying precipitating or escalating the conflict in Ukraine into a world war. That\u2019s very serious.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cYou know, it\u2019s just intemperate speech, is what it is.
