Concerns over Joe Biden’s cognitive health have been escalating, and those concerns are not without merit, according to Texas Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson. As a former White House physician who has cared for three presidents, Jackson says he knows what it takes to be the commander-in-chief. He believes Biden is not capable of carrying out the duties of the office, and warns that the situation is only going to get worse.

“The decline is happening quickly,” Jackson told “Sunday Morning Futures” guest anchor Sean Duffy. “This man can’t do the job. He’s proven to us every single day that he can’t do the job, but this is going to get worse.”

Jackson’s comments come as Biden’s 81st birthday sparks more conversations about his age and declining cognitive acuity. The former White House doctor has previously called for Biden to take a cognitive test or drop out of the 2024 race, stating that the decline has been evident for some time.

“It’s just unbelievable how much he’s degenerated just during his time in office. We cannot afford to have this man in office for the remainder of this term and then [for] another four years after that. He’s already putting us at great risk right now,” Jackson said.

Meanwhile, the president’s support among Gen Z voters is eroding, according to recent polls. One NBC News poll indicated that Trump leads Biden by four percentage points among registered voters between the ages of 18 to 34.

Despite speculation about potential replacements for Biden, such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom or former First Lady Michelle Obama, a clear alternative remains elusive. Jackson voiced concerns about the direction of the country under Biden’s leadership, citing issues at the southern border, international tensions, and the economy.

“[Look at] the wars that we’re getting drawn into. Things that wouldn’t happen if Donald Trump were there because our enemies don’t fear us anymore. They have no respect for us anymore and our adversaries don’t trust us anymore, and it’s because we don’t have the leadership in the White House that we need,” Jackson said.

In Jackson’s view, Biden is not physically and cognitively fit for office anymore, and someone in his inner circle needs to make him aware of this for the safety and security of the country.
