He has frequently criticized the former President for his age on multiple occasions. He has also often stated that Biden is not qualified for the presidency due to his apparent health issues.

In December, cardiologist\u00a0Dr. Jonathan Reiner cited multiple similar incidents and shared his thoughts on concerns raised about the President\u2019s health.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Speaking with CNN, Reiner said, \u201cHe\u2019s done this several times in the last few weeks.\u201d The doctor added, \u201cHe\u2019s fallen asleep in a crowded Oval Office, and he\u2019s also fallen asleep at Cabinet meetings with people talking directly to him.
