Fox News host Jesse Watters has linked President Joe Biden's love of ice cream to Alzheimer's disease.
Watters made the comments after the president spoke to reporters while eating ice cream after taping a segment for NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers in New York City on Monday.
"You know who lights up for ice cream? Children and the elderly. There's a reason caregivers deliver ice cream to their patients in nursing homes," Watters said on his show Tuesday night.
He explained that the Alzheimer's Association says ice cream is "a favorite for people with diminished faculties." Alzheimer's is the most common form of dementia and has no cure.
Biden's age and mental fitness has come under scrutiny as he campaigns for re-election, with some voters viewing the 81-year-old as too old to serve a second term.
"Ice cream has the power to immediately elicit soothing feelings at the very first taste of a single spoonful," Watters said, quoting the association's comments about the "power" of the treat.
"It erases all the negative feelings related to the frustration and continues to stimulate pleasure receptors in the brain with every new scoop," he said. "Now, obviously, I'm not diagnosing Biden with Alzheimer's, but you see what's going on here."

"They clap when he puts his sunglasses on. They treat him for ice cream to make him happy. He's got his little Corvette, his toy car that he's so proud of that he keeps his special folders next to.
"No one can take those folders. Those are my folders. He's a child. He copies homework. He lies, falls asleep, doesn't listen. Joey has his aviators, mint chip and his Hot Wheels, and he's happy. Are we really going to re-elect this guy America?"
Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment via email.
Many social media users mocked Watters' comments.
"It takes a special kind of alpha male to be scared of eating ice cream," one person wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
A different person joked: "I'm devastated to find out that my Ben and Jerry's New York Super Chunk Fudge addiction indicates my pending Alzheimer's diagnosis."
Another wrote: "Lots of different foods elicit a pleasure response for people at all ages. Wtaf? I feel bad for ice cream now, it's being stereotyped by complete morons."
And another wrote that Watters "attempts to [sound] like some sort of medical professional there and fails miserably."

We truly live in the most pathetic timeline.

ok, the ice cream and aviators are stupid, and probably the worst gimmick a president has ever had. especially the fucking aviators, he doesn't have the right face or head shape to wear them well.
but I don't think it has anything to do with alzheimers and everything to do with being stuck in the 1970s. next president will probably wear his high school varsity jacket everywhere.

It's not a meme nor is it an attempt to look hip or cool, Biden just straight up loves those aviators, everybody has a personal niche

I'm pretty indifferent to joe biden, he's done some things I like and some things I dislike. the thing I don't like is the stupid facial expression that people make when they eat ice cream cones.
it could be joe, it could be trump, it could even be anna kendrick who I love and have a crush on... I'll still say the same thing

"stop getting your picture taken when you're eating ice cream, you look like a fool"

it's the same face people make when they're constipated. so stop. I don't want to imagine people pooping.

how is it miserable to have an opinion? if it was any other form of ice cream I'd be fine, but he had to pick the cone. at least opt for soft serve if you're gonna make other people watch you eat.

They're getting worse at hiding it. People at least put in effort during Bush/Obama times, now it's nothing but fresh accounts and usual suspects running it down mid.

In all seriousness though my grandma had it, and its an incredible hardship to look after them. Its also sad when you realize that the person would likely be horrified if they knew they were soiling themselves at night. It would have shattered their dignity.

Yeah, just a normal election like any other. Dont vote for Biden (I.e. against Trump) at the most crucial time in recent memory because you dont want to support genocide - even though if youve ever voted before, youve already done that, because supporting genocide is part of US foreign policy regardless of who the president is.

(that wasnt addressed at you, of course)
