How Did The Biden Campaign React To Trump’s Pennsylvania Speech?
TJ Ducklo Senior Communications Advisor to the Biden campaign responded to Trump’s speech in a statement:
Every single time Donald Trump opens his mouth, he’s confused, deranged, lying, or worse. Tonight, he lied more than two dozen times, slurred his words, confused basic facts, and placated the gun lobby weeks after telling parents to “get over it†after their kids were gunned down at school. But you won’t hear about any of it if you watch cable news, read this weekend’s papers, or watch the Sunday shows. Beltway reporters may be numb to Trump’s horrifying candidacy defined by chaos, division, and violence — but the American people are the ones who will suffer and die if he’s allowed anywhere near the Oval Office again.
This is not a drill – Donald Trump is THE fundamental threat facing the American people and everyone needs to act like it. Including the free press – while we still have one.

Trump’s Mental Decline Destroys The GOP Argument About Biden’s Age
It is nearly impossible for Republicans to argue that Biden is too old and forgetful to be president, when Trump can’t give a speech without slurring his words and can’t remember basic facts like losing Pennsylvania in 2020.
It looks like there are some serious cognitive issues going on with Donald Trump, which the corporate press until Trump does or says something that can’t be ignored.
There may very well be a candidate in cognitive decline in the 2024 presidential race, and his name is Donald Trump.
