Here’s what The Hill added:
Former daytime TV psychologist Dr. Phill McGraw said he thinks President Biden should go forward with a cognitive test in order to prove that he has “nothing to hide,” as questions about the incumbent’s age and mental acuity arise amid his reelection campaign.
When asked by host Bill Maher on whether Biden should take a test, McGraw said “why not?”
“People that have nothing to hide, hide nothing. So, why not?” he answered in the panel interview Friday evening on “Real Time with Bill Maher,” highlighted by Mediaite.
Biden, 81, is the oldest sitting president in U.S. history. The likely Republican nominee, former President Trump, who has also faced some scrutiny over his age, is 77.A new survey found that 86 percent of Americans believe Biden is too old to serve in office, while 56 percent believe both Biden and Trump are too old.
Those concerns were only exacerbated by a recent report from special counsel Robert Hur, after reviewing classified documents found at his old vice presidential office and family home in Delaware, which described the president as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
