Howard Dean: Biden ‘could beat the daylights’ out of Trump in pushup contest
The Hill ^ | 02/28/2024 | SARAH FORTINSKY

Former Democratic National Committee Chair Howard Dean said in an interview that aired Tuesday that President Biden could “beat the daylights” out of former President Trump in a pushup contest.

In an interview on MSNBC’s “The Beat with Ari Melber,” Dean said Republican candidate Nikki Haley’s best hope at the GOP presidential nomination would be if Trump suffers a health problem and cannot continue in the race.

“Haley’s hope has to be that she can present herself well as an alternative to Trump so that the convention can accept her should either Trump have a health problem, which he’s certainly just as likely as Biden to have, if not more,” Dean said.

Trump, 77, and Biden, 81, have faced questions about their advanced ages and cognitive capabilities. But Dean said Biden’s physical fitness was the better of the two.

FDR couldn’t do a single pushup. Worst. President. Ever.

I don’t really care if my candidate can beat your candidate in pushups, or squat thrusts, or ice cream eating. I kinda do care if he can complete a cogent sentence, walk up a flight of stairs without falling, wander aimlessly after a speech after having tried to shake hands with thin air, take reporters questions from reporters without the question having been pre-arranged and his answers prewriten, or refer to the country’s military headquarters as “you know, the THING!”

With the latter being the most accurate description for Mr. Obama’s domestic partner.

He probably could do pushups, he had really strong arms.

Let’s have them do a pushup contest and then mental tests, I bet Trump would go along with that.

I know that is what we all look for in a President, right?

Besides, I doubt Joe could complete more than one push-up and something such as that is never going to happen.

A better and more telling “contest”, and something that could easily be arranged, would be for each to speak off the cuff for an hour while covering several issues currently facing the nation. All this without any note cards or teleprompter. Trump does it at least weekly and often more than once a day. Biden simply cannot do it. He can barely speak for one minute without assistance and even then he makes several ‘flubs’.

The real question is:

We have known for years that Dean is a nutcase. Why is he being quoted?

For a joke”

For a laugh?

One swing landed by the fat guy and the turnip would crumple to the ground permanently.
