President Joe Biden has made numerous flubs and gaffes during public speeches. Most Democrat leaders dismiss these blunders as simple errors.
However, sometimes it isn’t the mistakes that concern citizens — it’s the bizarre information POTUS occasionally lets slip in public. Some of the stranger ones leave everyone scratching their heads.
And this might be the weirdest one yet.
Biden was speaking in Virginia Beach this week and addressing healthcare policy. It was a fairly standard event, until the President decided to relay his interaction with a nurse during recent treatment.
It wasn’t what anyone expected.
Biden: "I had a nurse named Pearl Nelson. She'd come in and do things I don't think you learn in nursing school. She'd whisper in my ear, I couldn't understand, but she'd whisper and she'd lean down and actually breathe on me to make sure there was a human connection." pic.twitter.com/G90JeKdQDQ

She’d come in and do things I don’t think you learn in nursing school.
She’d whisper in my ear, I couldn’t understand, but she’d whisper, and she’d lean down and actually breathe on me to make sure there was a human connection.
X Strategies LLC senior digital strategist Greg Price reminds us that Biden “has told us this story before,” and shared a clip from July 2020 where Biden said nurses “would actually breathe in my nostrils to make me move.”
These are the sorts of comments that get people thinking: is the President really as cognitively sound as the administration claims?
The Twitterverse certainly kicked in with their reactions. Radio host Jenna Ellis posted:
How does the Cabinet watch this and NOT invoke the 25th Amendment?? https://t.co/BVOoWGNFQf

Republican and Conservative leaders have often mentioned the 25th amendment in regards to Biden and currently, the President has not received a cognitive test (as far as anyone knows).
He did receive a clean bill of health in a recent physical, but that physical reportedly did not include any mental assessment.
Conservative commentator Justin T. Haskins added on Twitter that “this man has lost in mind. Good thing he’s not in charge of a nuclear arsenal or something like that.”
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration from Day One, and his communications adviser, Steve Guest, replied: “President Joe Biden making it weird for everyone.”
Perhaps Dana Loesch had the most fitting, succinct response:
Why is he so weird https://t.co/fK8rNNe06a

Biden continues to force the question of his mental acuity. In this case, one wonders if his memory is failing him, or he’s badly misinterpreting treatment he received.
Either way, odd little stories like these are bound to cause all sorts of commentary, and probably won’t help Biden’s case for re-election in 2024.
Key Takeaways:
- President Joe Biden relayed a strange story of a nurse doing things to him “you don’t learn in nursing school.”
- Biden has told this story before, previously saying in 2020 that a nurse would “breathe in my nostrils to make me move.”
- Critics quickly pounced on Twitter, calling out the creepy nature of the story.
