Two White House officials confirmed to Bloomberg that President Joe Biden is using a CPAP machine to treat sleep apnea but Biden’s press team has yet to release an on-the-record comment.
The Bloomberg reporters grew concerned after Biden showed up today with visible strap marks on his face while he talked with reporters on the White House lawn in the morning.
Sleep apnea is a potentially serious condition where breathing can stop during sleep. Biden is the oldest president in US history. He is running for four more years despite terrible poll numbers.
“Even if you’re as old as I am, you can’t think of a time when the world was moving so rapidly in determining what their alliances were and where they were,” Biden said at a recent fundraiser.
Earlier today Biden referred to the Ukraine war as the Iraq war. He did it again last night, confusing the two wars and the people in the audience.
Biden is old and looks shaky and Kamala Harris is the least qualified person in history to be so close to the top spot. And Biden can’t remove Kamala from the ticket over woke politics. What a mess.
According to Bloomberg:
President Joe Biden has begun using a continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP, machine to treat longstanding sleep apnea, according to two people familiar with the matter.
As Biden departed the White House on Wednesday to give an economic address in Chicago, marks from the CPAP apparatus were apparent on his face.
Similar marks could be seen on Biden’s face Monday during an event at the White House detailing plans to divvy up nearly $42.5 billion to build out high-speed internet networks.
Biden disclosed sleep apnea ahead of the 2008 presidential campaign, and the use of the machine is not related to a new condition or environmental conditions, according to one of the people, who requested anonymity to discuss the president’s health. The use of the machine is a recent development.
