An advertisement featuring President Joe Biden and 3 minutes worth of his numerous gaffes was released on Friday by the Republican National Committee (RNC).
In the run-up to a possible rematch with former President Donald Trump, Biden, who turned 81 in November, is facing mounting age-related criticism from both the left and the right.
In a video titled, “3 Minutes of a Confused Joe Biden,” which consists of a number of clips in which the president seems unsure of his surroundings, the RNC is attacking what appears to be the president’s weak point.

“America and our allies are less safe because no one respects Joe Biden,” said RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel in a statement. “In three years, the Taliban took over Afghanistan, Russia invaded Ukraine, and Hamas terrorists attacked Israel. Now, eight Americans remain held hostage, Israel is still at war, and our president is dazed and confused. Biden’s weakness has emboldened our enemies, and four more years of failed leadership would only invite further chaos.”
Trump has been trending ahead of Biden in national and crucial battleground state polls a year out from a hypothetical rematch, and is currently up by 3.2 points in the RealClearPolitics (RCP) average.
Additionally, Biden is down by double digits against Trump on questions of basic presidential competency, including the handling of voters’ top issues and concerns over the Democrat’s age, according to recent polling data.
A Wall Street Journal survey released on Dec. 9 found that only 23% of voters believe Biden’s policies have helped them, compared to nearly 50% who said the same of Trump’s administration.
