"If President #Biden held a #news conference with 162 #lies, resorted to laughable fabrications, sounded as bad as #Trump did on X and scheduled so few appearances, a swarm of investigative pieces exploring his fitness and commentary asking whether he should leave the race would have ensued....

"Had the #media been conscientiously covering #Trump, the public would understand these #bizarre outings as part of his noticeable #CognitiveDecline. Trump’s sporadic appearances on the trail alone should be grist for the cable #news shows. When they do discuss his mental state, it is often in the context of horserace #politics.
(...How about asking hard questions about how a party can stand behind someone in an alternative reality?)"
