Flotsam and Jetsam - Trump Chimes In

One of the wonders of the last few days of the Biden senility scandal has been Donald Trump's relative silence on the matter, apparently willing to let the Democrats get on with the business of beating each other up without interruption. Ben Domenech at Spec World finds The newly disciplined Trump is driving the left nuts "They hate this." Capt. Ed at Hat Hair comments "I joked last week that Trump finally got around to reading Sun Tzu, but apparently it's from Napoleon: "Never interfere with an enemy in the process of destroying himself."  Stacy Matthews at LI, Dems, Media Losing Their Minds Over Trump Sitting Back and Watching Them Implode Post-Debate Debacle.  “BREAKING: Donald Trump has now been missing for 11 days. Will the media please do a wellness check on him?” Apparently he decided that the Democrats were starting to get their act back together, and that it was time for him to stir the pot again. At Althouse, "The entire Democrat establishment have been caught red-handed in the thick of the biggest scandal and the biggest cover up. It's a cover up, that's what it is, " "Said Donald Trump at his rally last night, in Doral, Florida," and "I'm officially offering Joe the chance to redeem himself in front of the entire world.... Let's do another debate this week..." "... so that Sleepy Joe Biden can prove to everyone all over the world that he has what it takes to be president. But this time it will be man to man — no moderators, no holds barred. Just name the place — anytime, anywhere. And in the debate, Sleepy Joe also declared that he wanted to test his skills and stamina against mine on the golf course. (Can you believe this? Did you ever see him swing? He's like this.) That's why this evening I am also... officially challenging Crooked Joe to an 18-hole golf match — right here, on Doral's Blue Monster, considered one of the greatest tournament golf courses anywhere in the world one of the Great Courses of the world. At the Wombat's In The Mailbox: 07.08.24, Louder With Crowder. Trump caught on hidden (and hilarious) video sharing his true thoughts about Biden, Kamala.

Joe also had an opportunity to get on the news at the NATO meeting in Washington D.C. where he read a short speech from TOTUS, slightly outside his preferred 10-4 hours. Nick Arama at RedState, Biden Slurs and Stumbles Through NATO Anniversary Remarks, Clinging to the Teleprompter for Dear Life. At Gateway  “Five Aditinsthghga Air Degeeens Shystems!” — Joe Biden an Incoherent Rambling Mess at NATO Summit, I saw it and didn't think it was that bad; I guess they titrated his meds about right.
