Pulled audio shows the scope of bidens struggle to remember important details in the 2023 interview, also died as a son

The audio of President Joe Bidens 2023 -interview with special consultant Robert Hur about the improper possession of classification matters was published more than a year after the publication of his administration.

The recordings published by AxiosUnveil the extent to which the 46th President, who tried 80 at the time, to remember important details and data, prompted his lawyers and spoke in a persistent, whispering voice, interrupted by long silence.

They illuminated why the White House refused to publish the audio, while Biden was still in office, with regard to his intellectual sharpness, and perhaps also why Hurs was concluded that the juries had seen in every process that could arise through his possession of the documents as “personable, well -intentioned, older man with a bad memory”.

At that time, the White House resigned from Hur's assessment of the President and insisted that he was “sharp” and that all attacks on bidies were politically motivated – but the special legal counsel looks respectful, and the tone of the interview is friendly and mostly appears relaxed.

The audio is published when the Trump administration reports reported that the publication of the records weighs. Before the publication of a new book about a campaign by the White House and a President who hides the decline of the President when he ran for another term. original sin Axios' Alex Thompson and Jake Tapper from CNN will be released on Tuesday.

During the two three-hour sessions with Hur and his co-country Marc Kricknaum, Biden's lawyers had to remind him of the year that his son Beau died and the year in which Donald Trump was elected President for the first time.

The spokesman for Biden, Kelly Scully, told Axios: “The transcripts were published by the bids administration more than a year ago. The audio only confirms what is already public.”

Where the records add a new dimension to what is already known from the transcripts, the length of the breaks and the slowly unfolding nature of some answers.

The emphasis on these quiet moments of the president is the sound of a ticking watch in the background.

Nevertheless, bidges remain engaged despite memory gaps. Sometimes, Axios Comments, he cracks jokes and makes humorous sections, and through and through he sounded “more like a nostalgic, grandfather story story than after a potential defendant who could be accused of having recruited secret papers.”

Perhaps the result of the basis of the interview was that he had little memory of how or why he had classified documents in his possession after his two terms as Vice President Barack Obama.

At one point, his lawyer Bob Bauer warns that he can enter into speculation how the documents may have landed where they did and emphasized that the president does not remind no specific details.

The timing of the interviews is also remarkable. The first session took place on October 8, 2023, the day after the Hamas had attacked Israel from Gaza. After an international crisis that triggered the conflict that continues to this day, bidges are slow, forgetful and often derives from the topic.

During the second session, the following day, October 9, the president sounds more committed and stronger. Axios Notes.

While Hur's report has not been recommended to promote criminal prosecution and try to convince a jury from Biden's guilt in order to take targeted use of classified materials.

“It would be difficult to convince a jury that, by then, – by then a former president in the 1980s – they should condemn him with a serious crime that requires a mental state of anger,” he had come to the conclusion.

The Biden Camp has blown comments on the age of the President as “free of charge, inaccurate and inappropriate”, while Donald Trump said Super Pac, if bids were not fit enough for the process, he was not fit enough to be president.

The upcoming book by Thompson and Tapper is a collection of their reporting on the cover -up of bidens mental and physical defeat. The excerpts of the book already cause turmoil because they have described surprising cases of bidges gaps in mental sharpness, which were reportedly hidden from the public by 2024.

Biden, who reported a wheelchair in a wheelchair, reported that Hollywood Megastar George Clooney did not recognize at an event that the President had flown to Los Angeles so that Clooney was hosting in his name. Other excerpts claimed that he had forgotten the names long -time helpers, including that of his national security advisor Jake Sullivan.

The Democrats now have difficulty reacting to the criticism of why it took so long for bidges to take Harris aside in favor of Kamala, and ask how long every coverage of the President's decline was going.

The publication of these audio recordings and the upcoming publication of original sin Probably more than a year before the 2024 elections, a further rejection of Biden defenders over the mental fitness of the President of the President will fully flood.

It could be the break that the Democratic Party needs to get ahead and regain the American people.
