Joe Biden claimed he had a conversation with another dead world leader this week as concerns mount about his cognitive decline.
Biden claimed that he spoke recently with former German Chancellor Helmet Kohl regarding the events of January 6th, 2021, at the US Capitol.
During a fundraiser in New York on Wednesday, Biden said:
“And then Helmut Kohl turned to me and said, ‘What would you say, Mr. President, if you picked up the London Times and learned that 1,000 people had broken down the doors of the British parliament, killed some bobbies on the way in, to deny the prime minister to take office.”
Helmet Kohl, who was the German chancellor between 1984 to 1989, died in 2017.
Biden didn’t even correct himself either; he mentioned Kohl again later in the day.

Earlier this week, Biden told a crowd in Las Vegas about speaking with French President Francois Mitterrand in 2021, despite him being dead since 1996.

As The Daily Fetched reported:
During Biden’s trip to Las Vegas, he warned about the dangers of a potential second Trump presidency, attempting to increase enthusiasm ahead of Tuesday’s Democratic primary in Nevada.
Biden recounted a story about a meeting he had with French President Emmanuel Macron during a G7 event,
“I sat down and I said, ‘America’s back,'” Biden recalled.
“And Mitterrand from Germany – I mean from France – looked at me and said…”
Biden trailed off before saying, “Well, how long are you back for?”
Biden continued, saying the “Chancellor of Germany” asked him how he would respond if, hypothetically, thousands of people stormed Britain’s House of Commons and killed two “bobbies,” or British police officers, to stop the election of a Prime Minister.
François Mitterrand was France’s president between 1981 and 1995 and died in 1996.
