    President Joe Biden said during an interview that aired Sunday night that people who do not believe that he is mentally fit to hold office should just watch him because "the proof of the pudding is in the eating."

    Biden made the remarks during an interview on CBS News' "60 Minutes" with host Scott Pelley.

    "Mr. President, you are the oldest president ever," Pelley said. "Which leads to my next question. You are more aware of this than anyone. Some people ask whether you are fit for the job. And when you hear that, I wonder what you think."

    "Watch me. And ma- honest to God, that's all I think. Watch me," Biden responded. "If you think I don't have the energy level or the mental acuity, then- then, you know, that's one thing. It's another thing, you just watch and- and, you know, keep my schedule. Do what I'm doing. I- I think that- you know- I don't- when I sit down with our NATO allies and keep 'em together, I don't have 'em saying, 'Wait a minute, w- how- how old are you? What are you- what say?'"

    "You know, I mean, it's a matter of, you know, that old expression: The proof of the pudding's in the eating," Biden continued. "I mean, I- I- I respect the fact that people would say, you know, "You're old." And- but I think it relates to h- how much energy you have, and whether or not the job you're doing is one consistent with what any person of any age would be able to do."

    TRANSCRIPT:

    Scott Pelley: Mr. President, you are the oldest president ever.

    President Joe Biden: Pretty good shape, huh?

    Scott Pelley: Which leads to my next question. You are more aware of this than anyone. Some people ask whether you are fit for the job. And when you hear that, I wonder what you think.

    President Joe Biden: Watch me. And ma- honest to God, that's all I think. Watch me. If you think I don't have the energy level or the mental acuity, then- then, you know, that's one thing. It's another thing, you just watch and- and, you know, keep my schedule. Do what I'm doing. I- I think that- you know- I don't- when I sit down with our NATO allies and keep 'em together, I don't have 'em saying, "Wait a minute, w- how- how old are you? What are you- what say?" You know, I mean, it's a matter of, you know, that old expression: The proof of the pudding's in the eating. I mean, I- I- I respect the fact that people would say, you know, "You're old." And- but I think it relates to h- how much energy you have, and whether or not the job you're doing is one consistent with what any person of any age would be able to do.

    Scott Pelley: How would you say your mental focus is?

    President Joe Biden: Oh, it's focused. I'd say it's- I think it's- I- I haven't- look, I have trouble even mentioning, even saying to myself, my own head, the number of years. I no more think of myself as being as old as I am than fly. I mean, it's just not- I haven't- observed anything in terms of- there's not things I don't do now that I did before, whether it's physical, or mental, or anything else.

Considering that Joe Biden is considered by so many to be the Imposter President: Is he actually knowledgeable enough, wise enough, patriotic enough to be this Constitutional Republic's president at this difficult point in these tumultuous times?

  Yes, Mr. Biden is thoughtful and kind, and just so different from the "Orange Man".

  No, this representation of "president" is either too corrupt, too stupid, or both to be a real president.

  I just want the fun guy, who knew how to make stuff work back.
