Social media users have raised concerns about President Joe Biden’s lack of energy during his on-scene response to Hurricane Helene’s destruction. Throughout his presidency, many Americans have expressed worry over Biden’s age and cognitive function, which became unavoidably apparent before he dropped out of the 2024 race.

In footage shared to X, Biden could be seen standing with a group surveying the impact of Hurricane Helene, which has devastated communities across the southeast.  However, some criticized Biden for seeming to have “no energy.”  Sharing the clip, one user wrote about the president, “Biden today… The guy just stands there with no energy.”

Similarly to Biden’s lack of physical energy, many Americans have blasted the seemingly lackluster response from the Biden-Harris administration toward the destruction across the southeast.  Many have claimed it is yet another example of the broader incompetence seen across the federal government throughout the current administration.

The Vigilant Fox wrote on X ,”It doesn’t take a genius to see that something is off here. This is “deep betrayal of America.” Adding insult to injury, hurricane victims were left stunned when Biden declared his administration had “done all we can do” to assist, only to later fumble and forget the name of the catastrophic storm that had just ravaged their communities.”

The popular conservative account continued, “Americans have woken up to the fact that the government is not here to serve you, and when you need them the most, you’re on your own. This harsh reality is clearer than ever in the wake of Hurricane Helene. Let’s hope they don’t forget this bitter truth when they head to the polling booths this November.”

Former President Donald Trump has also been very outspoken about the President Biden and Vice President Harris’ inadequate response to the hurricane.  “THE WORST RESPONSE TO A STORM OR HURRICANE DISASTER IN U.S. HISTORY — WITH ANOTHER ONE COMING. OUR COUNTRY CANNOT WITHSTAND FOUR MORE YEARS OF THESE INCOMPETENT FOOLS. THE WHOLE WORLD IS LAUGHING AT US!!!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Trump also specifically called out Harris in a lengthy post, “The Interview on 60 Minutes with Comrade Kamala Harris is considered by many of those who reviewed it, the WORST Interview they have ever seen. She literally had no idea what she was talking about, and it was an embarrassment to our Country that a Major Party Candidate would be so completely inept. In addition, her Incompetence on “helping” people through the devastation of Hurricane Helene is being reviewed as, by far, the Worst in American History, even worse than Katrina – If that is possible!

He continued, “I can’t imagine anybody living in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, or Tennessee, voting for her. Pollsters are saying that the anti, or negative, Vote in those places, and even places not affected but with people watching what took place, will be heavily against her. This is good news because November 5th is the Most Important Day in the History of our Country, and we cannot bear four more years of Incompetence. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
