And some of the Biden videos are obviously doctored. I’m sorry but I’m sick of this crap directed at Biden. Plus the whole Biden is senile lol crap. My Nana had it. Biden ain’t senile and Trump has no room to fucking talk about losing ones mental capacities.

Quite true: but truth (as we have had all-too-many opportunities to note since 2016) is even less relevant in politics than ever. At least as far as Trump and the Republicans are concerned (IMO): They are looking at a notably unpopular President with atrocious polling numbers, in the middle of a deadly national pandemic with no end (or even curtailment) in sight, and little or nothing to offer the voting public. Outside, of course, of hysterical - and racist - scaremongering. And trying to paint Joe Biden as some senile dement is only par for the GOP course: of course it going to be flogged relentlessly by the RWNM: they’ve got nothing else. And would probably do it anyway, if Trump were up by similar margins. Smear, fear, and insult: it’s the Republican Way….
