*A friend of mine who worked at CNN back in the Eighties came away from a* *press conference with President-elect Ronald Reagan stunned by the latter's* *incoherence—**and even more amazed by the obtuseness of his **colleagues, * *who either hadn't, or wouldn't let themselves, perceive that anything was wrong. *
*What's changed? Regarding their dementia, the main difference between the* *Gipper and the Groper is that Reagan, a seasoned trouper, seemed to be on* *the ball much of the time, as his cognitive decline was not as far-advanced * *as **Biden's obviously is. As for the press, it's hard to see much difference* *between then and now, except that, back then, all the corporate media, both * *right and **"left," refused to notice that the emperor had very little brain, * *whereas right now it's just the "liberal media" that's blind to Biden's mental* *incapacity, while it's the right that's (rightly) noting it. * *How can they keep this up? It's easy to smear Tara Reade, or black her * *out—* *"our free press" works that kind of magic on all sorts of people, all the time.* *But, unless Biden has a brain transplant (or Bill Gates can finance the* *emergency creation of a smooth-talking **Biden hologram), his debility will* *be impossible to hide, making Trump sound ever more coherent—even* *eloquent—and "in command."* *And what then? Would they force Hillary into the race, or Michelle Obama,* *if she's ready for her close-up?

Lives of millions of people. Millions of people. Millions of jobs. You know, and we're in a position where, you know we just got new unemployment insurance, this morning, uh, numbers — 36.5 million claims since this crisis began." President Trump continues to poke at Biden over his gaffes and suggest that he is mentally unfit for office. On Thursday the president said <https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/trump-to-salena-zito-joe-has-absolutely-no-idea-whats-happening>, "Joe has absolutely no idea what's happening," and, "He doesn't know he's alive."
