(Update: July 16, 2024: My word to those claiming either is too old: I am older than either Trump or Bden.. Given modern medicine, bodies and minds age at different rates in humans. My word to those who try to disqualify either because of age: Shut up. Biden has more than demonstrated since the debate that was an episode, not a condition.
Trump has had his moments as well. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-confuses-nikki-haley-pelosi-talking-jan-6-rcna134863) When the teleprompter fails, he has been seen and heard to go off on sharks, electric boats, and, whether others call gibberish and word salads. )
Trump also often deflects criticism of him by accusing his critic of doing what he himself does. The trick is called projection. It can also be an unconscious reaction. https://www.cnn.com/2019/09/24/opinions/trumps-absurd-projection-reveals-his-anxiety-avlon/index.html?
The most glaring example of Trump's projection complex: Democrats cheated n 2020 elecito (no evidence ever emerged after 3 years) , the big lie, and now Trump and MAGA plan to cheat in 2024, as revealed by Project 2025 and the strategy revealed by the Heritage Foundation.
Both Trump and Biden pass cognitive tests: Trump has additional mental health issues. I am listening to some comments about Biden, his impressive performance at the NATO presser, and his mental acuity. One of the strangest was, well, he showed great acuity when he talked about foreign policy but not when he talked about his own health. Come on....either he has sufficient acuity in his brain, or he doesn't. There may be other matters at work here...like he is getting attacked because of his age. How does acuity disappear or appear given the topic?
So, explain this: https://www.npr.org/2024/07/12/nx-s1-5036518/biden-trump-poll
"The race for the presidency remains statistically tied despite President Biden’s dismal debate performance two weeks ago, a new national NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll finds.
"Biden actually gained a point since last month’s survey, which was taken before the debate. In this poll, he leads Trump 50% to 48% in a head-to-head matchup. But Biden slips when third-party options are introduced, with Trump holding the slightest advantage with 43% to 42%."
Trump has had his moments when the teleprompter fails, wandering off about sharks, electric boats, and what othesr call gibberish and word salads. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-confuses-nikki-haley-pelosi-talking-jan-6-rcna134863
Where MAGA goes wrong with cognitive tests is that most Biden voters know he has a speech stutter, makes gaffes, and is old, and that is nothing new. They already support him because he represents more than himself: stopping Trump. They realize Trump's problem is mental health, not cognitive health. Only the media and some ambitious politicians seem to be shocked. In short, they already discount his vulnerabilities and support him https://www.cnn.com/.../donald-trump-criticism.../index.html anyway.
