Memory Concerns and Incoherence: Impact on Biden and Trump
Both presidential candidates, Biden and Trump, exhibit signs of memory lapses and incoherence, typically associated with old age. However, while these issues are negatively affecting Biden's campaign, they do not seem to hinder Trump's. Despite Biden's forgetfulness and confusion, polls show that it is not diminishing Trump's popularity. Trump leans into his incoherence, playing up his persona at rallies and making headlines by encouraging Russia to attack NATO allies. This stark contrast in the impact of memory concerns on the two candidates reflects the divided reactions among their respective supporters.
