Ailing Joe Biden has allegedly lived up to his nickname – by sneaking off to bed instead of keeping his eyes open for a vital secret meeting on the Ukraine war.
The U.S.’ oldest ever leader – set to turn 82 in November and branded ‘Sleepy Joe’ by his growing legions of critics – is accused of skipping a conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, 66, during a hush-hush G7 gathering at the Alpine resort of Scholes Elmau, Germany.
Biden allegedly snubbed German Chancellor Olaf Scholz during the secret G7 event.
A source said about the doddery Democrat’s apparent absence: “German officials, aware of Biden’s fatigue at night, sought to accommodate the president by planning a June 2022 event with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in the early evening.
"The informal event, a soiree at the Alpine resort Schloss Elmau during the Group of Seven summit, was arranged as a confidential meeting on Ukraine in a relaxed setting. Biden didn’t show, surprising the chancellor and his aides."
The insider was one of several who hit out at Biden in an exposé by The Wall Street Journal that audited his declining public appearances.
Two additional insiders familiar with the incident in Germany claimed Secretary of State Antony Blinken, 62 – who allegedly attended the meeting in Biden’s place – informed the German officials the president had snuck off to bed.
State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller has since refuted the concerning reports Biden went to bed early instead of attending the G7 meeting with the German chancellor in June 2022.
The incident unfolded at the Alpine resort Schloss Elmau in June 2022.
He fired back: "Secretary Blinken never said that or anything like it."
Another U.S. official claimed the White House made it clear early on President Biden would not be attending the meeting with Chancellor Scholz on the sidelines of the summit two years ago.
Another White House official refuted the reports and explained President Biden balanced “engagements with world leaders” and “pressing needs at home” during the June 2022 G7 summit – with one evening ending as late as 10 PM following a lengthy call with his team about domestic issues.
Sources at the G7 summit admitted Biden showed no signs of cognitive decline – although they acknowledged the president appeared “physically worn out as the days passed.”
Several lawmakers have privately complained about how President Biden has given them “less face time” in his old age.
The exposé added the octogenarian has now reduced his movements so much he’s leaving lawmakers tearing out their hair as they’re finding it impossible to get face-time with Biden as he ages.
