President Joe Biden reportedly told a group of Democratic governors on Wednesday that he needs more sleep, wants to wrap up his days by 8 p.m., and joked that while his health is in good shape, “it’s just my brain.”
The president also revealed that he had a brief medical check-up after last week’s debate — shortly after the White House told reporters that Biden had not seen a doctor since.
A group of 20 governors met with Biden at the White House on Wednesday night as mounting concerns about his mental fitness have followed a faltering performance at his first debate against Donald Trump, which the president blamed on both a cold and jet lag.
At least three sitting Democratic members of Congress have either publicly called on Biden to drop out of the race for the White House, as polling tips in favor of Biden’s criminally convicted and twice-impeached Republican rival.
During Wednesday’s meeting, which lasted an hour, the president declared that he was in good health following his medical appointment, two people who attended the meeting told Politico. The statement was preceded by Biden visibly knocking on wood, they said.
