There's apparent concerns about his mental acuity, but that's not being compared to Trump's mental, psychological, or moral competences - let alone their political ideas. The fact that Joe's brain is a standalone story shows that it's not part of any wider debate over the capacity and competency of presidential candidates (which after all is what we're being told we need to be concerned about), but that it's part of a coordinated marketing campaign focused on setting the ongoing terms of political reference, and influencing waverers and undecideds - as well as those without skin in the game looking in from the outside.pErvinalia wrote:Biden is obviously not without a shot.

But I wonder how many people are fearful of the Trump Media Train's marketing strategy actually winning out in November? Fear can be a powerful motivation to action.
