In an effort to position himself as an enthusiastic solution to the sometimes uncertain 81-year-old Democratic president, Donald Trump has made Joe Biden‘s advancing years one of his main campaign gathering points.
However, the Democrat former leader is celebrating his 78th day on Friday and has shown signs of physical and mental slowdown.
Almost every day, the billionaire politician’s strategy team sends out videos of Trump stumbling or stuttering, looking utilized- out or appearing disoriented at public events.
They assert that these videos, which are meticulously edited and occasionally defy fact, show that Biden is unable to successfully govern the United States.
” His head is flat gnocchi at this point”, senior Trump secretary Jason Miller said Thursday.

Trump’s group is trying to make citizens forget that he is only three and a half years younger than his November opponent in spite of all the vile criticism.
Trump will make a grand entrance to another sun-filled journey on Friday evening in Florida.
The proposal reads,” Join us in celebrating the holiday of THE BEST Executive EVER,” and invitees are asked to wear whatever more. — the British flag.
For Matthew Foster, a professor in state at American University,” there are some obvious differences in terms of actual capabilities”, noting that Biden’s pace can be rather tight at times.
But Foster even points out that Trump’s schedule is significantly lighter, with more time between people appearances, and when he does address supporters, he generally descends into longer, disjointed, stream- of- consciousness tirades.
” He’s giving off the old, drunken uncle vibe at times when he is giving these speeches, and this might be a sign of age, that you become less able to control all of your impulses”, Foster told AFP.
” And for somebody who’s already so impulsive, this could go into unforeseen territory”.
The fiery Trump launched into a mind-bending diatribe at a campaign event in Las Vegas on Sunday, earning Democrats a chuckle as he slammed shark attacks, electric batteries, and electrocutions.
Team Biden called it “unhinged”.
Trump has also misled Turkey and Hungary’s leaders in recent months, warned that a second, not a third, world war was on the horizon, and referred to Hannibal Lecter as a “wonderful man.”
– ‘ When I go bad’-
Trump is no longer subject to the same routine and regular medical exams that his rival must go through as the Oval Office holder.
Biden is required to take a litany of medical tests as head of state for transparency reasons. The White House physician makes the precise results public.
No new information has been made about Trump’s health in years, which is known to be a fan of fast food, to contrast.
In mid- November, the presumptive Republican candidate published a short letter from his doctor, which said he was in “excellent” health, and that he had even lost weight– without saying how much.
Trump claimed at the beginning of the year that he had just taken a cognitive test and “aced” it.
” I’ll let you know when I go bad, I really think I’ll be able to tell you”, he said.
– Not the’ deciding factor’-
Who will be the oldest American president to take the oath of office if the election results on November 5?
Do voters really care, though?
Foster is not so sure.
The big question that we must address is “is anyone going to vote for Trump because he seems younger and more determined” He continued, adding that he believes discussions on issues like the economy, abortion, and immigration will have greater significance.
The candidate’s age “is not going to be the deciding factor,” Foster said in a politically divided country where the election could come down to just tens of thousands of votes.
By the time election day arrives, the stakes will be too high.
