Jill Biden feared Joe had stroke during 2024 debate
Former First Lady Jill Biden revealed in a CBS News interview airing May 31 that she feared her husband, President Joe Biden, was having a stroke during his June 2024 presidential debate against Donald Trump. Biden's faltering performance — marked by a raspy voice, confusion, and lost train of thought — ultimately led to him withdrawing from the 2024 presidential race and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. Jill Biden stated she had 'never ever seen Joe like that before or since' and that the moment 'scared her to death.'
