Trump campaign relentlessly asking voters to 'wonder' about Biden's mental fitness
Washington Examiner ^ | 4/13/20 | W. James Antle III

Posted on 04/13/2020 1:59:38 AM PDT by Libloather

President Trump now knows who his general election opponent will be and, to hear his campaign and its allies tell it, it’s a Democrat who is just not that with it.

The Trump War Room video mashups are dominated by montages of former Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, stumbling and fumbling his way through speeches and debate responses. Interspersed throughout the greatest hits - “Make sure you have the record player on at night,” odd references to primary opponents Bernie Sanders and Cory Booker as “president,” failing to correctly identify his current location, such as when he mistook New Hampshire for Vermont - are Democrats and liberal pundits expressing concern on camera. One of the videos, “You Just Wonder,” takes its title from a Booker quote: “There are definitely moments where you listen to Joe Biden and you just wonder.”

Trump hasn’t hesitated to play on these fears."I don't know why President Obama hasn't supported Joe Biden a long time ago. There's something he feels is wrong," Trump said on Wednesday, musing about his predecessor’s neutrality during the competitive phase of the Democratic primaries on the day Sanders suspended his campaign. "He knows something that you don't know, that I think I know.”

This is good to hear. I hope the campaign uses them frequently and everywhere.

I bet the Chinese would be very happy if Biden was in charge.

Biden comes “pre-bribed”.

The Washington Examiner has always seemed fairly reasonable on their treatment of the President. Are they, too, heading own the anti-Trump path? I ope not.

Is it too early for this?

It is never too early by my standards and probably by Trumps standards, although Trump usually attacks in response to an attack. I don't know how long he holds grudges and will continue to attack. We need to start using the some of the same tactics that Rats use - Alinsky Rules for Radicals. In my words, hold the target still, surround and attack, abuse, ridicule and be relentless. Never give the enemy comfort. The one rule for radicals I don't think should be used is to lie; and the bigger the lie and the more often it is repeated the more believable the lie becomes. We don't need to lie about Rats. We just have to point to socialist background and experience, then repeat often and the more believable the truth becomes.

ROTF!

Who needs to ask?!

In any case, if there’s nothing to this why has nobody in the enemedia just flat out asked Biden to confirm or deny having/being treated for dementia.

He will be incompetent to testify or stand trial.

Proving his incompetence is what this is all about.

Lots of wasted but necessary effort. Biden is not a viable candidate and the dems fully realize this. The dems will wait to make sure none of their Wuhan plague smear of Trump splashes onto Cuomo before giving him the nomination.

Any adult that fails to recognize that Joe Biden is now mentally incompetent needs to read the children’s book about the emperor that has no clothes on. Yeah, I know, there is a preposition at the end of my sentence.

The Democrats are keeping Uncle Joe down in the basement where all the other crazy uncles and aunts are kept.

I think Trump has enough juicy details on how Cuomo screwed-up here that this is not going to happen. Cuomo is demurring for a reason, and it isn’t lack of ego.

Another $8 million book deal would tide them over.

Joseph's Book of Gaffes could fill several volumes.

Joseph's Cognative Acuity could be the shortest book ever written.

“Trump campaign relentlessly asking voters to ‘wonder’ about Biden’s mental fitness”

Now is not the time to question Biden’s mental stability,fire on all cylinders after he’s locked into the nomination. Going after him now will give the RATS momentum to remove him, and getting Cuomo or Newsome in the race. We have to take all three branches.

If Big Media squints really really hard, they _might_ be able to notice the elephant in the room!

I would have waited until after he gets the nomination. Actually, buy air time during their convention to run these ads. There is still time for the Rats to get a different nominee. Better if he gets replaced after he gets the nomination.

The only upside is that Bernie is still on the ballot. These ads might get Sleepy Joe fans to stay home, and others to support Bernie.

YES, Obama's famous words to Joe, "You don't have to do this". Just prior to Joe jumping off the cliff with the dem party along with him.

Big media had/has no problem trotting out so called mental health providers to say that Trump has mental issues/is deranged so they should just STFU when someone,mental health professional or not, states the obvious to anyone fact that Joe Biden has serious dementia issues. As a matter of fact the media is doing Joe Biden a serious disservice by not calling out his wife and family for the obvious abuse of Joe because of their outrageous greed and power tripping.
