Mr Trump made the gaffe about the threat of World War II — which finished in 1945 — during the part of his address in which he was questioning the mental acuity of 80-year-old Mr Biden.

    The number of powerful politicians on the left I can count on one hand.

    What you’re talking about isn’t cowardice. It’s complicity. They want Trump to be the nominee, because they think they can beat him. Worst case scenario, he wins, and they get to fundraise like hell and benefit from his tax cuts.

      Trump being the nominee is indeed the best situation for Dems. No question about that, but he’s been making these type of deluded comments even when he was in office and Dems never went hard on the “he’s got dementia” angle in attacking him. I’m not talking about random folks like us online, but rather elected officials. They were (and are still) afraid of getting in the crosshairs of Trump.
