ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos described former President Joe Biden as “heartbreaking up close” after conducting a one-on-one interview with him in July, the latest revelation on how clear Biden’s apparent mental decline was to those close to him.
Stephanopoulos’s July interview with the president was held just over a week after Biden’s debate with then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, with many critical of Biden’s performance onstage.
