Appearing on Fox News’ “Hannity,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said President Joe Biden’s is displaying very strange behavior as he appears “clearly out of it.”

“He’s clearly in cognitive decline,” Gingrich said. “In fact, makes me wonder who’s making the real decisions at the White House because, obviously, Joe Biden is not. He’s not capable of it.”

Gingrich suggests someone else must be calling the shots inside the Biden administration.

“Well, look, I thought his performance in Maui was so bad,” Gringrich explained.

“He was so clearly out of it that, frankly, I think it’s frightening,” he said. “This is not about politics and scoring points.”

“This is the commander-in-chief of the most powerful military in the world, and it’s clear that at least half the time, he’s just not there,” he continued.

“I mean, month by month, his cognitive collapse is more and more obvious the Associated Press just reported that 77% of all Americans, Democrats, Republicans, independents, 77% now believe that Biden is too old to run for reelection,” Biden continued.

“I suspect by next summer, that number will be in the ’90s because once this starts, it’s just going to get steadily worse.”

Former President Barack Obama once suggested that he would he would help in a “third term” if there was a “stand-in” or “front-man” who had an earpiece.

“I’ve said this before,” Obama explained. “People would ask me, ‘Knowing what you know now, do you wish you had a third term?’ And I used to say, ‘You know what, if I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front-man or a front-woman and they had an ear piece in and I was just in my basement with my sweats looking through the stuff and I could sort of deliver the lines, but somebody else was doing all the talking and ceremony.”

“I would be fine with that,” Obama declared. “Because I found the work fascinating.”

“I mean, I write about the — even on my worst days, I found puzzling out, you know, these big, complicated, difficult issues, especially if you were working with some great people, to be professionally really satisfying,” he added.

“But I do not miss having to wear a tie every day.”
