According to recent reports, former NFL star Antonio Brown criticized President Biden on X. Brown wrote, “Joe Biden is the worst president we’ve ever had.” Since the comment, the former wide receiver has sent social media into an uproar.
Many conservatives commented in support of Brown’s statement. One user said, “Couldn’t agree with him more!” while sharing a picture of Biden with the text, “Biden’s greatest accomplishment is showing people how great Trump was.”
“AB has always been real. The NFL needs him back!” another person said, supporting Brown’s post. “Antonio Brown has a valid point. Biden does far more for countries overseas rather than his own country,” another individual said.
One user wrote, “And he is Right.. as the wheels turn more and more people will be stepping forward and speaking out.. the great awakening.. not sure how it took 4 years to figure this one out.. but better late than never.. hahaha.”
“This is the most normal thing I’ve heard him say in over 5 years,” someone commented. Antonio Brown has garnered a reputation for making wild comments on social media. Many believe that Brown could be suffering from Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), which could be driving his behavior.
However, Brown has previously speculated that Biden may be suffering from CTE amid his behavior that many believe to be signs of cognitive decline. “Check this cr*ckerfor CTE,” Brown wrote about the 81-year-old president. The post, which has over 3 million views, contained a video of Biden appearing confused and being guided around.
Brown is voicing concerns about Joe Biden’s apparent mental health and elderly age that many other Americans share. The findings of Special Counsel Robert Hur further corroborate his concern, where an official government report expressed concerns about Biden’s age and memory.
The special counsel partly concluded that Biden shouldn’t face criminal charges from his mishandling of classified information because of his age and seeming complications with memory. According to Hur’s conclusion, “We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory . . . It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him—by then a former president well into his eighties of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”
Another part of the report added, “In his interview with our office, Mr. Biden’s memory was worse. He did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended (“if it was 2013 – when did I stop being Vice President?”), and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began (“in 2009, am I still Vice President?”), He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died. And his memory appeared hazy when describing the Afghanistan debate that was once so important to him. Among other things, he mistakenly said he “had a real difference” of opinion with General Karl Eikenberry, when, in fact, Eikenberry was an ally whom Mr. Biden cited approvingly in his Thanksgiving memo to President Obama. In a case where the government must prove that Mr. Biden knew he had possession of the classified Afghanistan documents after the vice presidency and chose to keep those documents, knowing he was violating the law, we expect that at trial, his attorneys would emphasize these limitations in his recall.”
