2020 ELECTION/JOE BIDEN: [Errol Barnett: “Please clarify, specifically, have you taken a cognitive test?”]
“No, I haven’t taken a test. Why the hell would I take a test?
C’mon man. That’s like saying, ‘You — before you got on this program you took a test where you’re taking cocaine or not, what do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?’”
[Errol Barnett: “What do you say to President Trump who brags about his test and makes your mental state an issue for voters?”]
“Well, if he can’t figure out the difference between an elephant and a lion, I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about. Did you watch that? Look, c’mon man, I know you’re trying to goad me, but I mean, I’m so forward to looking to have an opportunity to sit with the president or stand with the president in the debates…
I am very willing to let the American public judge my physical as well as my mental fitness.”
