Special counsel Robert Hur's report on President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents has raised fresh questions about the president's reelection campaign.

The report, which declined to bring charges against Biden, characterized him as an "elderly man" with a "poor memory" who couldn't remember when his son died or when he was vice president. Biden and the White House have strongly refuted these claims.

Biden now faces increased scrutiny from his political opponents about his age and mental fitness. GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene suggested that Biden was not "mentally fit to stand trial," let alone to serve as president.

A Facebook post by Greene on February 8 said: "If Joe Biden is not mentally fit to stand trial, then he certainly isn't mentally fit to be President of the United States.
