When\u200d asked by host Bret Baier about when she\u200b first noticed any decline in Biden&#8217;s mental faculties, Harris appeared caught off guard \u2064and deflected the question, emphasizing Biden&#8217;s experience and decision-making\u200d abilities instead. Baier pressed her \u2064with follow-up\u2063 inquiries\u200c regarding the \u2063absence of concerns \u2063during her regular meetings \u200bwith Biden. Throughout the exchange, Harris did not provide a clear answer, instead focusing \u200bon criticizing Trump. \u2064The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/msnbc-article-suggests-republicans-are-worse-than-nazis\/\" title=\"MSNBC Article Suggests Republicans Are Worse Than Nazis\">article suggests<\/a> that her evasiveness raises questions about Biden&#8217;s fitness for office and \u200dimplies \u2063complicity in obscuring his cognitive issues, prioritizing political self-preservation over transparency with the American public. The commentary concludes by \u2063highlighting the significance\u2064 of Biden&#8217;s mental status as a current topic of interest, given his \u200dposition as president.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-body body-md bdr-top-black pt-30\">\n<div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\n<div class=\"col-12\">\n<figure class=\"article-thumbnail mb-30 mb-sm-60\">\n<div class=\"article-thumbnail-caption d-flex align-items-center justify-content-md-end label-xs mt-15\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-camera me-10\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Image Credit<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Dqxx1GgvnrQ\">Fox News\/YouTube<\/a>       <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-share text-center article-share-simple\">\n<h5 class=\"label-sm mb-10\">Share<\/h5>\n<ul class=\"article-share-list list-unstyled m-0 p-0\">\n<li class=\"article-share-facebook m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/10\/16\/harris-wont-say-when-she-first-noticed-bidens-cognitive-decline-after-she-helped-cover-it-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Facebook<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-twitter m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Harris%20Won%E2%80%99t%20Say%20When%20She%20First%20Noticed%20Biden%E2%80%99s%20Cognitive%20Decline%20After%20She%20Helped%20Cover%20It%20Up&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/10\/16\/harris-wont-say-when-she-first-noticed-bidens-cognitive-decline-after-she-helped-cover-it-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Twitter<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-truth-social m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/share?title=Harris%20Won%E2%80%99t%20Say%20When%20She%20First%20Noticed%20Biden%E2%80%99s%20Cognitive%20Decline%20After%20She%20Helped%20Cover%20It%20Up&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/10\/16\/harris-wont-say-when-she-first-noticed-bidens-cognitive-decline-after-she-helped-cover-it-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">         <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"currentColor\" style=\"width:36px;height:auto;\" viewbox=\"0 0 92 93\"><path d=\"M69.444 55.716H56.772v10.37h12.672zM64.487 37.795V27.32H38.666v38.664h13.18v-28.19zM21.05 27.321h12.653v10.471H21.051z\" https:><\/path><\/svg>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Truth Social<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-link m-0\">       <button data-clipboard-text=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/10\/16\/harris-wont-say-when-she-first-noticed-bidens-cognitive-decline-after-she-helped-cover-it-up\/\" data-tooltip-content=\"Copied!\" class=\"clip tooltip\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-link-variant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Copy Article Link<\/span>       <\/button>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\">       <a href=\"mailto:?subject=Harris%20Won%E2%80%99t%20Say%20When%20She%20First%20Noticed%20Biden%E2%80%99s%20Cognitive%20Decline%20After%20She%20Helped%20Cover%20It%20Up&amp;body=While%20Biden%20is%20not%20on%20the%20ballot,%20he%20is%20the%20sitting%20president.%20His%20mental%20status%20is%20of%20clear%20and%20present%20interest%20to%20the%20American%20people.%20%20https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/10\/16\/harris-wont-say-when-she-first-noticed-bidens-cognitive-decline-after-she-helped-cover-it-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-email\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article via Email<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\"><span class=\"printfriendly pf-button  pf-alignleft\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/#\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" onclick=\"window.print();

role in concealing his cognitive decline, prompted by Harris&rsquo; comment that former President Donald Trump is &ldquo;unstable.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-d9cc0e9b22ffa9cb4f18b644e8b8e6c3 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-d9cc0e9b22ffa9cb4f18b644e8b8e6c3\"><\/div>\n<p>&ldquo;You say now [Trump is] unstable, he&rsquo;s not well, you say he&rsquo;s mentally not stable,&rdquo; Baier said, before noting that Harris &ldquo;told many interviewers that Joe Biden was on his game&rdquo; and &ldquo;ran around circles on his staff.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When did you first notice that President Biden&rsquo;s mental faculties appeared diminished?&rdquo; Baier asked.<\/p>\n<p>Harris paused for three beats, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tennis-australias-ebden-and-purcell-channel-woodies-to-win-wimbledon-doubles-crown\/\" title=\"Tennis-Australia\u2019s Ebden and Purcell channel Woodies to win Wimbledon doubles crown\">mouth hanging open<\/a>, eyebrows furrowed. She was not expecting that question. After all, Biden announced his departure from the race on July 21, some 87 days before this interview. Perhaps she thought folks had forgotten about the mental decline thing.<\/p>\n<p>She responded in a defensive tone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-e250bc3e452c6005210695738d72ea37 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-e250bc3e452c6005210695738d72ea37\"><\/div>\n<p>&ldquo;Joe Biden, I have watched in &mdash; from the Oval Office to the Situation Room. And he has the judgment and the experiment &mdash; experience to do exactly what he has done, in making very important decisions on behalf of the American people,&rdquo; Harris said.<\/p>\n<p>Baier tried for a follow up question, &ldquo;There were no concerns raised&hellip;&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Bret!&rdquo; Harris interrupted, speaking louder and over him. She tried to overpower him with her voice and body language, her hand extended flat, palm down as if to telegraph <em>stop<\/em>.&nbsp;&ldquo;Joe Biden is not on the ballot,&rdquo; Harris said. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Baier persisted, &ldquo;I understand, but you talked about it, after George Clooney said, within a few minutes of talking with President Biden at a fundraiser, that he thought, this is not the same Joe Biden that we saw on the debate stage. You met with him at least once a week for three and a half years. You didn&rsquo;t have any concerns?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-0fd12d5c1fbc9ff32d683fd12a633757 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-10\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-0fd12d5c1fbc9ff32d683fd12a633757\"><\/div>\n<p>Harris talked over Baier through most of that question, trying to shut him down. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>She did not come close to answering the question. Instead, she responded that Trump is unfit and should never be president again. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>While Biden is not on the ballot, he is the sitting president, so his mental status is of clear and present interest to the American people. She has done nothing to convince us that Biden is currently fit to serve, or that she was not complicit in the coverup of his mental decline for the sake of her own power. Her evasiveness is a sign that there is a problem. That she won&rsquo;t admit it, signals that Harris would rather save her own bacon than protect the American people from security threats like a president who is not thinking clearly. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If anyone has insight into who is pulling the strings at the White House, it&rsquo;s Harris. Clearly, she serves the same puppet master.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/voting-machines-in-pennsylvania-county-decertified-due-to-2020-election-audit-effort\/\" title=\"Voting Machines In Pennsylvania County Decertified Due To 2020 Election Audit Effort\">election news<\/a> and updates, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/electionbriefing.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">electionbriefing.com<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-502f96e9c8e8e2266b7c3752d229dc1b fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-502f96e9c8e8e2266b7c3752d229dc1b\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">      Beth Brelje is an elections correspondent for The Federalist.
