President Donald Trump weighed on Joe Biden’s cognitive ability in the wake of his dramatic fall on Thursday after delivering a commencement speech at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
Speaking at a Fox News town hall, Trump told host Sean Hannity to stop joking about Biden’s cognitive capacity.
Hannity said:
“I have asked you repeatedly about what you think about Joe Biden’s cognitive state. I’ve asked you about – he is up to the job physically, and mentally. You have been very reluctant to go there. I’m not reluctant. To me, would everyone agree with me this guy’s cognitively not there? I doubt he knows what day of the week it is today. That’s how bad I think it’s gotten for him. Why are you reluctant to call that out?”
Trump responded:
“Well, I don’t know if I’m supposed to say this. I actually called Sean, and I asked Sean not to joke about it because he used to joke about it.”
Hannity said, “I was joking about it.”
Trump said, “Because he used to joke about it. I said, honestly, I don’t think it looks good for you or for anybody to joke about it because it’s a serious problem.”
Trump continued:
“I said I just don’t think it’s good for anybody and, you know, it’s not appropriate. You can speak about it if you want, but I don’t think you should joke about it. And you really didn’t after that.”
Hannity said, “Well, now I realize how serious it is.”
