US President Joe Biden is embroiled in a case of misuse of secret documents. It is being told that in 2017, when Biden was on the post of Vice President, he had misused classified documents. Due to his age, a special counsel, Robert K. Hur, who is investigating this case, has raised serious questions about his mental condition.
US Attorney General Merrick Garland was assigned to special counsel Robert K. Hur said in the report submitted, “The investigation found that during the time Joe Biden was in office as Vice President in 2017, he knowingly retained and disclosed classified materials as a private person.”
US President Joe Biden shared the papers with the author of his memoir Promise Me, Dad.
The documents are said to be related to foreign policy issues on Afghanistan.
Special counsel on Biden’s mental acuity, Robert K. Hoor raised the question.
He said that when this case is investigated, then US President Joe Biden will probably present himself before the jury as a well-intentioned, sympathetic and elderly person with a weak memory.
He said it would be difficult to convince a jury to convict the then President of misuse of papers.
It is noteworthy that US President Joe Biden is 81 years old. If he wins the Presidential elections this time and is elected President again, then his age at that time will be 82 years. Therefore, Biden’s age and his mental acuity are constantly facing scrutiny. He is facing investigation even within his own party.
Joe Biden is already the oldest president in American history. He has had to face his memory related problems publicly. Recently he reunited French President Emmanuel Macron with one of his predecessors, Francois Mitterrand. Apart from this, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel joined Helmut Kohl.
Whereas former US President Donald Trump, 77, has his own challenges. Probably, the Republican candidate who will compete with Biden in the presidential election in November will be Donald Trump. Donald Trump had mistaken former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley for former Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi. Trump’s two impeachments were given the green light by former Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Making him the only President to face impeachment twice.
