Trump increasingly preoccupied with defending his physical and mental health (Wash Post's way of defending basement Joe's dementia )
Washington (com-)Post ^ | June 22, 2020 | Ashley Parker and Josh Dawsey

The early June meeting in the Cabinet Room was intended as a general update on President Trump’s reelection campaign, but the president had other topics on his mind.

Trump had taken a cognitive screening test as part of his 2018 physical, and now, more than two years later, he brought up the 10-minute exam. He waxed on about how he’d dazzled the proctors with his stellar performance, according to two people familiar with his comments. He walked the room of about two dozen White House and reelection officials through some of the questions he said he’d aced, such as being able to repeat five words in order.

The seeming non sequitur was part of Trump’s growing preoccupation in recent weeks over perceptions of his mental and physical health, at a time when critics have mocked him for episodes in which they say he has appeared frail or confused. The attacks Trump has previously levied against Biden — dismissing the former vice president as “Sleepy Joe,” secreted away in his basement and enfeebled — have boomeranged back on him, as opponents have seized on Trump’s own missteps to raise concerns.

Um, what is this?

The fifth or the sixth time they have made these attacks?

and I think he is more mocking the media for the false claims.

Hey Washington Post when are you going to share all those statistics you have about black deaths and the police?? Like the one about only 10 unarmed blacks killed by police vs 20 white people even though blacks are involved with 60 percent of the contacts with police.

Joe will drool and wet himself during a debate. And the media will not notice.
Trump will use the verb “is” when he ought to say “are” — and the media will demand the 25th Amendment be put into play.

I think he will literally fall asleep on camera.
Many people with dementia can seem talkative and full of energy when you first start talking to them, then 15 min later they poop out.
Plus, are they expecting him to stand up for over an hour?

Maybe Braindead Biden should do a 2 hour rally?

Trump is strong, healthy, and sane. It’s hard to maintain your sanity in the Den of Criminals, where insanity reigns now like never heretofore. Perhaps a Washington Post reporter should fight to obtain or regain sanity and thereafter to maintain it.

He spoke for an hour and 45 minutes at his rally and no one’s saying he appeared disoriented, feeble, etc.

Let’s see a “show of hands” of people who are STUPID ENOUGH to actually BELIEVE the KNOWING LIES in THE WASHINTON COM-post?
(I see FEW hands up.)

THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER is more likely to be truthful than the COMPOST, imo.
