After all, it&#8217;s Trump who has advised people to inject bleach; who thinks <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=45891\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">he coined the phrase <em>&#8220;Buy American&#8221;<\/em><\/a><\/strong>; who believes that testing for the coronavirus creates new cases; who asserts that doctors were amazed at how <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=45820\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">he <em>&#8220;aced&#8221;<\/em> a cognitive assessment test<\/a><\/strong>; who is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=45772\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">hyper-focused on his TV ratings<\/a><\/strong> during a deadly pandemic and economic recession; and who struggles to answer questions coherently and can barely construct a sentence that is halfway intelligible.<\/p>\n<p>The American people have observed Trump&#8217;s bizarre and aberrant behavior for three and half years now. And despite his furious efforts to malign Biden, they recognize a nutcase when they see one.<\/p>\n<p>This is affirmed in a recent <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/polling-institute\/reports\/monmouthpoll_us_070220\/#Question17\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">poll by Monmouth University<\/a><\/strong>. The survey asked <em>&#8220;How confident are you that [Donald Trump or Joe Biden] has the mental and physical stamina necessary to carry out the job of president?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The results reveal that the American people overwhelmingly regard Trump as unfit for the duties of his office. Only 35% said they are <em>&#8220;very&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;somewhat&#8221;<\/em> confident of Trump&#8217;s mental stability. A majority of 54% said they are <em>&#8220;not to&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;not at all&#8221;<\/em> confident. Biden&#8217;s numbers are the complete opposite with 52% saying they are <em>&#8220;very&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;somewhat&#8221;<\/em> confident, and only 35% saying they are <em>&#8220;not to&#8221;<\/em> or <em>&#8220;not at all&#8221;<\/em> confident.<\/p>\n<p>These survey results are all the more striking considering the lengths that Trump has gone to mischaracterize Biden. He has posted numerous tweets alleging that Biden is <em>&#8220;not all there.&#8221;<\/em> In a recent ad Trump asserted that Biden&#8217;s agenda would make America <em>&#8220;diminished and weak, just like Biden.&#8221;<\/em> Never mind that it&#8217;s pure projection on Trump&#8217;s part. Whether consciously or otherwise, some part of Trump knows that he&#8217;s the one drifting in and out of lucidity. and he&#8217;s not the only one who&#8217;s noticed (see video below).<\/p>\n<p>Where once these sort of attacks were considered out of bounds, Trump doesn&#8217;t even try to conceal his malicious intent. It must be frustrating for him that after all of his noxious and denigrating slander, it&#8217;s Trump who wears the mantle of mental infirmity according to a nation of worried citizens. And it isn&#8217;t likely to get any better for him if he persists in attacking Biden. The people get that his attacks are offensive and reflect more on him than on his rival. Which would turn whatever further efforts he directs at Biden into a downward spiral of self-destruction. The problem for Trump is that he is already too psychologically impaired to understand that.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><strong>How Fox News Deceives and Controls Their Flock:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00QSSMOES\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B00QSSMOES&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=newscorpsecom-20&#038;linkId=TLI6JC2OYE22MUTS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox Nation vs. Reality: The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><br \/>\nAvailable now at Amazon.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fox News is very concerned that this presidential candidate&#39;s brain isn&#39;t working <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VGfUgG0tE3\">pic.twitter.com\/VGfUgG0tE3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; The Daily Show (@TheDailyShow) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheDailyShow\/status\/1242836333871202305?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 25, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For several months Donald Trump and his Confederacy of Buttmunchers have attempted to paint an unflattering portrait of Joe Biden as suffering from cognitive decline.
