I don’t want to hear another word about it
Over the past week, Donald Trump and his surrogates, along with the worst of the Bernie Sanders surrogates, have tried to push the narrative that Joe Biden is somehow senile. Their sole basis for this claim: Biden keeps randomly misspeaking, in the same manner that he’s spent his entire career randomly misspeaking. It’s ludicrous, but then again so was Hillary Clinton’s imaginary email scandal, and that one stuck.
Here’s the thing. Not only is it untrue about Joe Biden, it’s an attempt at projection. All that Donald Trump had to do last night was sit behind a desk and look alive for a few minutes while he read some words off a screen. He couldn’t pull it off. He couldn’t even come close. He sounded like a malfunctioning animatronic version of himself at the Disney Hall of Presidents. He sounded so out of it, it was scary.
So that’s it. That’s where the line must be drawn. I don’t want to hear another word about Joe Biden’s supposed health or mental fitness issues for the rest of this election cycle. Anyone who watched Biden’s authoritative and inspiring speech today, and contrasted it with Donald Trump’s half-dead performance last night, knows exactly where the health and mental fitness issues are in this contest.
