Biden rules out the suggestion to take independent health assessment
The president's campaign for a second term has been overshadowed by a series of public gaffes and concerning physical behaviours, which have not escaped public or media scrutiny during recent appearances. His raspy voice and constant fumbling while mixing up the facts have even led to a silent revolt in the party itself. Yet, the prez declined to get independently assessed and show the result to the public ahead of the election stating, “Why the hell would I take a test?” “I get a cognitive test every day.”

These issues have emboldened opposition leader Donald Trump to criticise the president’s ability to continue in office. Although Dr. O'Connor has given President Biden a thumbs-up for his health during his yearly check-up, there are still concerns about the president's mental fitness. Claims from people like Rep. Ronny Jackson suggest that there might be attempts to hide the president's worsening health condition.
“I believe he and Jill Biden have led the cover up. Kevin O’Connor is like a son to Jill Biden — she loves him. It’s crazy. Kevin O’Connor was in that job on day one of the Biden administration because they knew they could trust Kevin to say and do anything that needed to be said or done and cover up whatever needed to be covered up. He is part of the Biden family,” he said earlier.
