Except Trump is also an old fool. It's not better to say with clear speaking that he wasn't responsible for all the things he screwed up, that he didn't BADLY botch covid response, that he didn't hand out money, that he didn't support the vaccine he also took credit for making, that Jan 6 didn't happen, that Charlottesville didn't happen, that he didn't call the neo nazis who killed a person 'fine people' that he didn't stoke violence very intentionally. That he didn't tell Proud Boys ''stand down and stand by'' that he isn't calling for a dictatorship if he ever gets elected.
Yes. Biden has a speech impediment, and clearly struggles with that particularly now that he's getting quite old. But what he said wasn't insane claims that reality is in fact not reality.
How you would handle COVID differently? He banned travel from China, a move that everyone called him xenophobic for, he ushered Operation Warp speed, a move that helped provide the world with three separate vaccines, and he left the policy of how to deal with COVID to the individual states, a move that somehow got him labelled authoritarian.
Well for one, in the press conference when he announced the CDC's recommendation to wear cloth masks, he emphasized that it was a voluntary measure and then added he wasn't going to do it. People look to their leaders for guidance. How many people refused to wear a mask despite the CDC's recommendation because the president felt the need to throw in his own opinion with his experts' recommendations.
