Chapter 1: Why is Fox News panicking over questions about Donald Trump's cognitive health?
if you want to see fox just absolutely lose it bring up donald trump's accelerating cognitive decline if you even raise the question they have a utter freak out so when i had democratic leader hakeem jeffries on the midas touch network earlier this week I asked him, do you think it's a fair question that we raise Donald Trump's cognitive decline as a significant issue right now?
And he goes, when he travels the country, he gets the question frequently. And he said, looking at Donald Trump's conduct, he understands why people are raising that issue with him. And he says he thinks it's a fair question. So throughout the entire day yesterday, Fox was focused on why would Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries ever bring this up?
And he should be talking about former President Biden. Just take a look over here at this chyron. It says, Jeffries, fair to question Trump's mental acuity. And like on the Will Cain show, they brought on Democratic Congress member Dan Goldman and they asked Congress member Goldman, come on, come on, Congressman. How could you ever possibly raise an issue about Donald Trump's mental issues?
How could you ever do that? Watch what Democratic Congress member Goldman said in response. Play this clip.
I could debate you on each and every one of those things you just laid out, but I don't think you can call it whatever you want. I think that's an incorrect statement, Congressman. I think words have meaning and they matter. And I think you know that.
I think we have to be careful with our words, especially if we're not trying to inflame the public and most certainly if we're trying to arrive at the truth. And after four years of having us gaslighted over the...
competency, the mental acuity of the previous president, it's absurd to question, even if you disagree, Congressman, and clearly you do with much of the president, the competency of the sitting president today. I think the accuracy and truth of those words do matter.
Well, I don't think he's competent, Will. I don't know what to tell you. Whether his cognitive abilities are sufficient to get past the 25th Amendment, you know, we don't know that right now. But I think what is clear is that he has driven our country into a disastrous economy. He has undermining the fundamental rule of law and democracy.
He is taking away benefits in order to cut taxes for the rich. I think even you, Will, would have to agree with me that this first 100 days is not at all what he promised the American people.

Chapter 2: What are Democratic leaders saying about Donald Trump's mental acuity?
Donald Trump spent the last year and a half questioning the cognitive ability of President Joe Biden, notwithstanding many of the legislative accomplishments that Donald Trump could only wish he got over the finish line.
And so I think it's fair that a lot of Americans across the country that I run into are questioning whether Donald Trump is actually fit at this point to be able to carry out the duties of the United States of America in terms of being the president and the commander in chief.

That's why I love True Classic. Their shirts are actually designed with real people in mind. Snug in the chest and arms where you want that clean look, but with just the right amount of room in the midsection so you're not regretting that extra side of mashed potatoes. And it's not just the tees.

Now, going back to the incident at Walter Reed, when you had Ronnie Jackson, now Congress member Jackson from Texas, when he was Trump's doctor, here's what he said when he was asked about Donald Trump potentially having mini strokes at that time. Here, play this clip.
Yes. There was an incident recently where the president appeared to slur his words while giving an address. Did you look into what the cause of that might have been at all?

Chapter 3: How does Fox News respond to allegations about Trump's cognitive decline?
I think it's probably better.
You know, I think about what Senator Bernie Sanders told me. And he said, you know, Ben, sometimes the things that are kind of most obvious and are most glaring are the things that are discussed the least often. And I think if you put all the puzzle pieces together and go, OK, corporate news isn't reporting on this. That's kind of strange because it seems pretty obvious.
Fox gets very worried the moment it's mentioned and devote a ton of coverage to trying to swat it down. You had Donald Trump's communications director, Stephen Chung, like freak out when Joanna Coles basically said, like, Nothing even that significant about Donald Trump's health. And we just observe his behavior right now.
As I said before, I don't want this to be used as an out for Donald Trump to one day avoid accountability. And I don't want to just try to blame his actions. disgusting behavior on a physical issue because there could be complex explanations because he's still vile and he's still disgusting. But I think it's something that needs to be talked about more.
I'm going to use the platform to talk about Donald Trump's declining cognitive issues more. But you see that it certainly is very worrisome to Fox. Anyway, let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 5 million subscribers.
