Biden criticized for outdated appearance, weak voice during first presidential debate: 'Extremely concerning'

During the CNN Presidential Debate on Thursday, President Biden was subjected to intense criticism for his perceived "outdated" appearance and "unconvincing" tone of voice.

Numerous media personalities, conservative commentators, and politicians expressed their disapproval of Biden's state during the event, characterizing it as "deeply concerning" and "embarrassing."

"Former CNN commentator Chris Cilizza wrote on X that Biden appears old, halting, and has lost his train of thought, with a weak voice. In contrast, conservative commentator Clay Travis stated on X that Biden looks like he might die on stage tonight and is worse than he thought he would be, with Travis expressing shock."

Republican Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton wrote that it is deeply concerning that Joe Biden requires a seven-day seclusion to speak coherently for 90 minutes.

Ben Shapiro wrote: "Joe Biden established the guidelines for this debate and spent a week preparing. As a result, he appears this way."

Why did Biden seem to gaze away from Trump, the camera, and moderators, as observed by conservative activist Charlie Kirk?
