Khanna says it’s ‘obvious’ Biden ‘was not in a condition to run for reelection’
Rep. Ro Khanna, a Democrat from California, has recently made headlines by stating that it is now “obvious” to him that former President Joe Biden was not in a condition to run for re-election. Khanna emphasized the importance of honesty in rebuilding trust within the Democratic Party, suggesting that Biden should not have run for re-election and that there should have been an open primary instead.
Khanna shared his views during an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” where he expressed regret over the lack of transparency regarding Biden’s cognitive condition. He admitted that despite his limited interactions with the President, he now realizes that Biden was not in a suitable state to run for another term. Khanna urged his party to acknowledge their mistake and be truthful with the American people about Biden’s ability to serve as President.
During the interview, Khanna was confronted with past statements he had made about Biden’s mental acuity, including describing him as “fully coherent” in 2024. When questioned about the authenticity of his previous remarks, Khanna admitted that he did not have the full picture at the time.
In response to Khanna’s comments, Fox News Digital reached out to the Office of Joe and Jill Biden for a response but did not receive one before publication.
The issue of Biden’s cognitive decline has been a topic of discussion in recent months, with some speculating about the extent of his mental faculties during his last year in office. Biden himself has refuted claims of significant cognitive decline, pushing back against accusations during a recent appearance on “The View.”
As the debate continues within the Democratic Party about the transparency surrounding Biden’s health and ability to serve as President, it is clear that Rep. Ro Khanna’s remarks have sparked a new wave of discussion and reflection within the political landscape.
