This is his favorite angle of attack, but you still have to avoid getting your brushes tangled. On Saturday, during a speech in Detroit (in the strategic “swing state” of Michigan), Donald Trump placed his traditional attack on the state of mental health of his opponent “sleeping Joe” Biden, aged 81. Against 78 years – anyway – for the Republican candidate.
Doc Jackson becomes Doc Johnson
Donald Trump took his argument to the point of challenging Joe Biden to take a cognitive test. In the video, broadcast by CNN, he boastfully continues about his own case: “Doc Ronny Johnson. Does everyone know Texas Congressman Ronny Johnson? He was the White House physician, and he said I was the sanest president in history, so I really like him,” he proclaims.
Except that the famous doctor who followed Donald Trump during part of his mandate is not called Ronny Johnson but Ronny Jackson. A confusion of the “sprinkler watered” style which was the delight of American social networks, particularly in the Democratic camp.
