I'm just going to leave this here: https://youtu.be/RYHPVX_Xs6g
I'm sorry but I don't see it or hear it. I don't like Trump but this looks like the kind of propaganda where they just blatantly lie about a video. It relies on our brains expecting something to be there so it makes it up. You defeat it by getting the accusation but then skipping to the video so you don't hear the accusation ten times before watching it. So in summary Trump supposedly pauses, strains, and then there's an audio component. I didn't observe any of the three elements.
Tongue tied isn't the same as what happened with Biden on the debate night. It's theoretically possible for Trump to stop lying or at least restrain himself, because it's not a physical ailment that only gets worse as time goes by. Compare 2020 debate Trump vs 2024 debate Trump and you'll see how much better he was this time. Biden on the other hand has no control over what is going on with him, and it doesn't get better with age, only goes the opposite direction. He did good during his 4 years, but he's only tarnishing his legacy by running again. He should quit while he's ahead.

Cool… cool. We’re just gonna ignore the sitting President has dementia. What’s for dinner?
You should look up what dementia actually entails. It's not a joke to be thrown at people who are just simply old and can't articulate the way they used to. Which was the case with Biden.
It's an insult to those who suffer from the disease and belittles their struggles.
They’re also not a President who won’t submit to a cognitive test, so spare me your outrage. Do you know that the 82 year old doesn’t have dementia?
My point is that dementia is a very specific disease that is debilitating and if Biden came within a golf shot of having it he never would have mounted that stage.
Honestly, Trump displays more things symptomatic of dementia than Biden does. Biden is just displaying old age. And yeah, he's fucking old. But then, Trump is only 2 years younger than his old ass.
