Republican state senator Matt Dolan, who is running for U.S. Senate in Ohio, expressed concern about President Biden’s mental acuity in light of the special counsel’s report on Biden’s handling of classified documents.
The report suggested Biden’s advanced age could make a jury reluctant to convict due to perceptions of diminished mental capacity and forgetfulness.
“I’m very concerned. I don’t know that President Biden is capable of being president of the United States,” Dolan said.

Dolan believes this indicates uncertainty around who is truly making decisions in the White House.
He is challenging Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown and argues Brown and Biden want to expand government’s size against public wishes.
“That is a huge concern for us. Now, obviously, I’m running in a Republican primary. I’m talking to a lot of Republicans, so it’s just a matter of course it’s scary for us,” he said. “That was a very telling report about who’s running the show in Washington and that should make us scared.”
“We don’t want a president who we don’t know who’s truly making the decisions in the White House,” he added.
“I think people are very frustrated that they have a government that is not working to do what’s best for the individual, for the businesses, and for the individual to thrive,” Dolan said.
“Instead, they see Sherrod Brown and Joe Biden trying to expand the size of government and saying, don’t worry, government will solve these problems and people are sick of it and they don’t feel secure. We got to change,” he said.
Recent polls show many Americans doubt Biden’s ability to serve another four-year term given his age.
The special counsel’s extensive documentation of Biden’s memory loss could hamper his potential reelection and has renewed questions about his capacity to serve as president.
“Mr. Biden will likely present himself to the jury, as he did during his interview with our office, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Hur wrote.
“It would be difficult to convince a jury they should convict him – by then a former president who will be at least well into his eighties – of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness.”
“Our investigation uncovered evidence that President Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen,” the report read.
