WASHINGTON, UNITED STATES: Fraud-busting Body Language Expert Traci Brown, during an interview with Nicki Swift, revealed that President Joe Biden wasn't being completely truthful about his dismal debate performance against Donald Trump.

Amid growing rumors regarding Joe Biden's mental capacity, his performance in the debate did not do much to reassure the public about his physical and mental health.

Concerns over Biden's health and how it affects his function as US president were raised by his debate performance. It has, however, also spurred discussion inside his political party as to whether he is the most qualified Democrat to challenge Donald Trump, the presumed Republican contender, in the 2024 race.

Nevertheless, Biden is committed to winning the race. He tweeted, "Let me say this as clearly as I can: I'm the sitting President of the United States. I'm the nominee of the Democratic party. I'm staying in the race."

ABC aired Joe Biden's uncut conversation with George Stephanopoulos on July 5. Before the election, the president used his 22-minute piece to appease some of his critics and political defectors and justify his poor debate performance.

In response to questions about his performance in the debate, Biden admitted his errors and explained them away as the result of a 'bad episode' brought on by 'exhaustion'.

President Joe Biden was questioned by George Stephanopoulos about whether his performance in the debate was an isolated incident or a sign of a bigger issue. In response, Biden said, "It was a bad episode."



 

Notably, Brown claimed that Biden was dishonest in his follow-up. "Here's the initial trouble. He doesn't have any other explanation to the first question than the reporter gave him," Brown said.

Brown mentioned the persistent smile that Biden had when being questioned by Stephanopoulos regarding the discussion. She said, "He is all smiles about the question. Someone has trained him to look alert and check in. Yet we still saw the vacant stare when he was asked a couple of questions."

Additionally, Brown pointed to Biden's rising 'blink rate' as evidence that the subject was troubling him. Furthermore, Biden continued to slur his words.

She said, "When he says it was a bad night one side of this mouth is in a slight smile, the other is in a frown so he's very conflicted about his answer." Moreover, Biden 'showed many of the signs of cognitive decline' in Brown's opinion during the presidential debate.
