I know it's said ad nauseum but pretend Biden said these words into a mic and how fast the headlines would start flying about dementia and 25th. Just wild that the media is letting this go and sucking him off for killing people in Venezuela and stealing their oil
Trump: "Transgender for everyone! Bring your kids in, we're gonna change the sex of your child. Just send them our way. In some cases, like in Minnesota, they don't even tell the parents. Nobody believes it when I say it. They operate on the kid, they don't tell the parents. It's not believable."

Your occasional reminder that Trump is the most unpopular president in modern (post-WWII) times.
He's underwater in 40 states with the remaining ten representing only 59 of the total 538 electoral votes (!)
If only media would preface and frame their POTUS coverage with these telling data.
