As Cow Poke noted in another thread, old Joe's keepers now have him holding up the Executive Orders and explaining what it is he is signing in an attempt at damage control. Apparently, in spite of the MSM ignoring the fact he was caught on a hot mic confusedly wondering what it was he was even signing as he still signed "his" E.O.s, more and more people have been made aware of this frightening loss of cognitive abilities.

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
