One Italian TV station has released a brutal sketch mocking Joe Biden's cognitive decline.
The sketch, which went viral on social media over the weekend, showed the confused president walking past the podium before giving an utterly incoherent speech about foreign policy.
The speech goes something like this:
I said to the President of Israel, Mikael Gorbachev... Sorry, Michael Jordan, went to the moon and was shot from Dallas. Long shot from Dallas, uh, fourteen million... miles. His wife tried to bring him into the cabriolet. Sorry, it wasn't the moon. It was a Mars attack. A beautiful film where Netanyahu sang "Somewhere over the garage."
The sketch then shows Biden uncontrollably swinging back and forth before pulling a suitcase from behind the podium and pressing a large nuclear button.

The hilarious clip has already racked up millions of views and led to a range of reactions from users who felt it stuck close to home.
"At least one Italian TV station is ridiculing Biden," one netizen wrote. "It’s mean-spirited, granted, but also signals how he is regarded elsewhere. Which is old. Really old."

"We are now the laughing stock of the world," added another.
However, another pointed out that the reality of Biden's cognitive decline is almost as bad as the sketch itself, posting footage of the president recently misidentifying the president of Mexico as Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah El-Sisi.

Despite long being obvious to the rest of the world, conversations around Biden's physical and mental decline have ramped up in recent weeks following the publishing of a report by Special Counsel Robert Hur into his handling of classified documents.
The report, which was published earlier this month, concluded that Biden had likely committed a crime in his handling of classified materials but that his age, memory, and declining overall health meant that a prosecution would not be in the public interest.
One of the issues mentioned in the report was that he had repeatedly forgotten when his son Beau had passed away, a claim that sparked anger from the White House and Biden himself.
Such scrutiny even within the left-wing media of Biden's mental decline has put pressure on him to step aside and allow a younger person to take his place as the Democratic nominee.
However, the president's aides are insisting that he does not plan on dropping out anytime soon. According to his campaign chief Mitch Landrieu, Biden will "never" voluntarily quit his re-election campaign.
"The one thing Joe Biden is never going to do is — count on this — he is never, ever going to quit," Landrieu said in a recent interview. "Because that’s not what he’s done his entire life."
