When I’ve jokingly said in the past that Joe Biden has the memory of a fruit fly, I was being a bit hyperbolic. Now, I think that statement may be more factually correct than illustrative.

After shaking hands with Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer during a press conference Tuesday, it took the President all of a few mere seconds to completely forget he’d done it and go back for a second shake – only to be left hanging with his hand stuck out in the open and a confused look on his face.

In recent months, the president seems to have gone from verbal gaffes and lapses in long-term memory to  a seemingly increasing inability to function at the most basic level. What had previously appeared as a difficulty in remembering what happened in 1970 has become a hard time remembering what happened four seconds ago.

And if we're noticing, you can bet the rest of the world is, too.
