PBS NewsHour’s Geoff Bennett: Are Democrats Now Justified To Question Trump’s Mental Acuity?

“PBS NewsHour” host Geoff Bennett asked panelists David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart if Democrats are now “justified” in holding President Donald Trump to “the same standard” of former President Joe Biden.

GEOFF BENNETT, PBS NEWSHOUR: Well, let’s talk more about that, because Republicans spent years telling voters to trust their eyes when it came to former President Biden’s age and mental acuity. Are Democrats now justified in applying that same standard to President Trump? You referred to his bellicosity. There is certainly this growing disinhibition. You look at the TRUTH Social post after Rob Reiner passed away. You look at the way that he verbally abuses some women reporters. How do you see it?
