BREAKING: Morning Joe Scarborough drops a bomb on MAGA world and reveals that there are serious concerns behind closed doors in the Republican Party that Donald Trump is too old and brain-rotted to be president.
Right-wing media has been aggressively working to paint Joe Biden as too old for the job, but Trump has appeared increasingly confused and rambling during key speeches.
Scarborough started off by slamming Trump's "weakness" for refusing to take part in the Republican debates. He got more specific with his criticisms—
"If you look at what happened last weekend, where you looked at him and he just got lost. He just blanked and he couldn't even remember, one, who he was running against in 2024," Scarborough said of Trump.
Suggestions that Trump is "cognitively impaired" are cropping up more and more after he gave a befuddling speech in which he said that Biden might start World War 2 — which has already happened — and seemed not to know who he was even running against.
"We've all been around people with dementia, people getting older, forgetting things," Scarborough went on. "Well, it was his history. If his mind wasn't jumbled at that moment, he would have remembered that he ran against Hillary Clinton in 2016."
"But he couldn't remember who he ran against in 2016, so he just slid Obama in there and he couldn't remember who he was running against in 2024!" Scarborough said.
"So what he did, he just slid Obama's name in there. That's kind of a catch-all so I guess if you start your career with a racist conspiracy theory about Obama, he's got that back there somewhere," he went on. "So he's living somewhere in 2011, 'I'll just say Obama's name, people seem to like that.'"
The former Republican TV host went on to point out that a piece in The Wall Street Journal — a bastion of American conservative thought — implies that Trump is "just too old to do this."
The paper suggests that Trump is afraid to confront other Republican candidates without a teleprompter because it will make him "look his age at 77 next to younger candidates."
"I know for Donald that line hurts because he's seen the video of how addled he looked and how confused he looked and how shaken he looked last weekend when he couldn't even remember who he was running against, " said Scarborough, who used to be friends with Trump.
"And now you've got The Wall Street Journal editorial page saying 'Hey I guess this guy's, you know, he's afraid he can't do this without a teleprompter and he's too old!'" said Scarborough.
Scarborough nailed it. Trump is falling apart before our very eyes and the broader media refuses to admit it because they're so fixated on Biden.
It's time we all start recognizing the truth: Trump's mind is falling apart.
