A new scare over Joe Biden’s health has Americans speculating about the future.
Now a former White House physician is weighing in on the president’s cancer scare.
And what he had to say blew away Fox News viewers.
All hell is breaking loose after Barack Obama’s former White House physician gave Fox News his candid opinion about Joe Biden’s recent cancer news.
Joe Biden’s obvious reluctance to announce his plans for 2024 is leading Americans—on both sides of the aisle—to scrutinize the 80-year-old president’s health.
That pressure comes as multiple polls reveal most Democrats do not want him to run for reelection.
A recent YouGov/The Economist poll revealed that even among those who voted for Biden in 2020, more than one-third don’t want him to run again in 2024.
In fact, only 24% said they want him to run again.
Now former White House physician and Congressman Ronny Jackson (R-TX) is throwing more fuel on the fire.
Dr. Jackson served both Barack Obama and Donald Trump as White House physician.
Jackson has become one of the most knowledgeable voices expressing concerns over Joe Biden’s ability to do his job with rapidly declining mental competency and physical abilities.
Jackson has even gone as far as calling for him to undergo a cognitive exam and release the results to the public.
When Dr. Jackson appeared on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures, he doubled down on his concerns over Joe Biden’s mental health.
Host Maria Bartiromo brought up recent news about the cancerous lesion Biden had removed earlier this year.
News about the president’s health scare just became public knowledge last week, prompting Bartiromo to bring it up during Jackson’s appearance.
“Congressman, I want to ask you your thoughts from your medical background,” Bartiromo said. “Unfortunately, President Biden had a cancerous lesion removed from the President’s chest last month. The doctor said that this is a common form. The lesion tested positive for carcinoma, but he’s OK. But I wonder about the conversation about his capacity. You have been talking about the president’s cognitive abilities being a national security risk. Tell us more.”
Jackson’s reply was so pointed it left Fox News viewers stunned.
“Well, look, Maria, I will start by saying that Biden is the cancer,” Jackson responded. “He’s what needs to be removed, not the — not the lesion they found.”
Jackson told Bartiromo the supposed health update is merely an effort to distract Americans from the real problem: Biden’s deteriorating cognitive decline.
“They gave us a bunch of useless information about his cholesterol and the stuff that no one cares about,” Jackson noted. “All we care about in this country with regards to President Biden, 80 years old, who’s got some obvious cognitive issues, is a cognitive assessment of some sort,” he added. “We want something on the record to prove to us that he’s cognitively capable of doing this job.”
Jackson then pointed out the serious situation Democrats are studiously ignoring: the national security threat posed by Joe Biden’s cognitive decline.
“And the worrisome thing, Maria, is that our adversaries and our allies overseas know that as well,” Jackson continued. “I was at the Munich security summit a couple of weeks ago, and I was astonished that I heard people from other countries mocking him and making fun of him. We are literally the laughingstock of the rest of the world right now.”
“It’s a big national security risk,” he went on to explain. “You have to have somebody that’s in this role that’s 100%, and there’s no way this man is even close to 100 percent.”
Based on his medical experience, Jackson believes in his current condition Biden would fail miserably.
“We will be lucky if this man is 50% right now of his cognitive ability that he needs to have to be our commander-in-chief,” Jackson predicted. “And so I think that the Democrats made a big mistake making him their nominee. And, unfortunately, now he’s our president, and we’re having to deal with it.”
That opinion is significant coming from a well-respected physician like Dr. Jackson.
He’s clearly one of the best medical doctors in the country which led to him being selected as the White House physician for both Trump and Obama.
The fact that Dr. Jackson believes Joe Biden would score below 50% on a cognitive test should leave every American terrified.
