Chutzpah! MSNBC's Jonathan Capehart Questions Trump's 'Mental Acuity'
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 06/02/2025 2:15:17 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Jonathan Capehart questioning President Trump's "mental acuity," and suggesting he suffers from "mental impairment?"

That is some world-class chutzpah!

After all, Capehart is the guy who, even two weeks AFTER Biden's "we finally beat Medicare" debate performance, was clamoring for him to remain in the race. Capehart castigated people calling on Biden to drop out of the race as "scaredy-cats," and said that "I am not worried about him, his abilities, his performance or his mental acuity."

And when when he scored an interview with Biden, Capehart edited out the moment that Ol' Joe nodded off and had to be brought back to consciousness by Capehart's "Mr. President?" prompting.

And yet . . .

On Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend that he co-hosts, Capehart did indeed raise concerns about Trump's "mental acuity" and "mental impairment."

Mental acuity is one thing these media morons don’t have.

It is not just that “one of them” in an interview says something this stupid, this biased and blatantly false.

It is that the other three, or four, or five, or six, or six DOZEN other talking heads of sex-described (er, self-praised) “experts” on politics and our future world ALL NOD THEIR HEADS up and down in full agreement with the first liar.

How do we break them? They don’t care any longer about ratings, salaries or reputations.

Is this honestly all they have????? Since Biden’s Alzheimer’s is in the news, they start “questioning Trump’s mental acuity”???? Keep up that line of attack, please. Let it take up the entire news cycle.

Given their laughable history of reporting, each and every ‘journalist’ should have a mental check, not for mental ability - but for honesty, integrity, and the ability to utter at least one sentence containing truth on each broadcast or publishing day.

If so, Don Lemon would probably want to elope, it would make a bigger splash in the media, or so he thinks.
Go to Vegas, get ‘married’ by a Trans-Man Justice of the Peace who was dressed up like Elvis.

Makes sense since MSDNC saw Biden as fully functioning so when Trump shows realistic goals and loves trolling the delusional left then it must seem as a mental impairment.

This will be a steady drumbeat until it becomes real news, NOT because its true, but a way to attack President Trump.

That they have no shame in the defense of biden his whole term doesn’t matter to them.

The call to be attentive to Trump's mental acuity was inevitable.
That is what their apology tour is all about.
We're sorry for missing Joe's incompetence, but we'll be more diligent from now on.

Capehart is a homosexual. If homosexual ‘s hadn’t flood the convention deciding what would go into the DSM about who is and is not mentally ill homosexuality would still be listed as the mental disorder it is.

Why not just ignore these people? If we ignore them, maybe they’ll go away!! Really - time shouldn’t be spent repeating all the nutty things liberals say...pretend they do not exist and move on to something else. They do it for the reaction and attention.

Maybe they’ll look up one day and say, “no one is reporting what we say anymore.”

Wow, they’re really getting desperate.

And trying to gaslight us as usual.

It’s clear that Trump is still sharp as a whip. Nothing at all like biden.

But even supposing for a minute that he WERE like biden. Since when is that an issue with the left?

Oh, I know. Since they’re looking for an excuse to get rid of him.
