Sure. And then Hillary tripped stepping off a plane, ordered pizza like a pedophile, and pissed off half the Midwest by defending NAFTA.
Even then, so much of this just boils down to which media you’re consuming. Jon Stewart is slightly more critical of Donald Trump than Ben Garrison. Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity spend 25 hours every day screaming “The Migrants Are Coming!

Look at the NYC Mayoral Race. Every newspaper in the country was running “Mamdani Did 9/11” tier headlines for months, but he still won in a landslide with a base that tuned them out and just followed him on Instagram.
A lot of these critiques are superficial and ultimately forgivable when the candidate in question champions policies you support.
I mean, Biden’s, “Corn Pop,” speech happened in 2019 and he was still elected. I’m not trying to say they’re the same morally (or even in terms of competency), but if the point is, “Can you imagine if Democrats elected a rambling, senile old man,” well…yeah, I can.
