    The media is being paid to just hamper this. Isn’t it strange that no one cares about trump viabiity for the office?

      Trump’s cognitive deficiencies are old news, whereas the Biden we’re seeing now is unrecognizable from the last campaign. Given the narrow margin Biden won by last time, that should be concerning to his supporters. You really think this is a media conspiracy?

        It’s not. Democrats right now would vote for Biden if he was in a coma. We had the “luxury” of experiencing how each of them run the country.

        Biden, unlike other potential democratic candidates is more likely to have some non trump Republicans voting for him.

        The fact that media is only talking about Biden without urging trump to step down shows me the whole thing is astroturfed.

          Not like the Republican is an existential threat to American democracy or anything, we can just half ass it…

      I’m concerned about both Biden and Trump viability in office, as many people are…just because you complain about Biden doesn’t mean you support Trump.

        From this interview it looks like his motor skills are slow but he is functioning fine.

        This whole thing was astroturfed, because trump knows Biden could get some Republicans voting for him. If it wasn’t, we would see similar requests for trump to stop down, but there are crickets, why?
