Biden Camp Attacks Trump Cognitive Abilities Over Flub In Interview With Fox’s Kilmeade

President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign attacked ex-President Donald Trump’s cognitive abilities over a flub during  an interview with Fox News host Brian Kilmeade in which Trump identified the current president as “Obama.”

Kilmeade spoke to Trump for his Fox News Radio program this week, The Brian Kilmeade Show.

The official Biden-Harris rapid response X/Twitter account Biden-Harris HQ flagged a short moment from the interview, writing “Trump once again confuses who is currently President, forcing Kilmeade to correct him.”

As is the HQ account’s habit, no additional commentary was included beyond a description of the clip.

In the fuller exchange, Kilmeade corrects Trump, who then pretends he meant to say “Obama” all along — forcing Kilmeade to correct him again and note there’s no proof of his follow-up claim:

Donald Trump: It’s all coming through Iran. And Obama wants to he doesn’t want to talk about it. He doesn’t want to mention he doesn’t even mention them in his statements. It’s all coming through Iran.

Brian Kilmeade: Well, you mean President Biden. So but right now.

Donald Trump: I also mean Obama.

Brian Kilmeade: What do you mean?

Donald Trump: You know Obama and Biden. But Obama is Biden’s boss. Guess you didn’t really know that.

Brian Kilmeade: Do you believe it? You believe President Obama.

Donald Trump: In the past? I don’t think I don’t think Biden knows what’s happening, to be honest with you. I think Obama is calling these shots and he’s always felt this way about Iran. There’s no question about that. No, I think Obama and Obama’s people certainly are calling the shots, not Biden.

Brian Kilmeade: So. So you do have a dispute, your gut tells you, but you don’t have any proof that President Obama is calling the shots.

Donald Trump: Oh, it’s my gut. But my guess I’ve been right about everything. So, you know, it’s good they have an expression out there. Trump’s been right about everything. You take a look at, go down the list. We’ve been right about everything.

This is at least the second time Trump made the same mistake recently. He insisted he beat Obama in an election while speaking in Iowa a few weeks ago.

And it’s the second time in as many days that the Biden campaign has gone after Trump’s cognition by highlighting such difficulties.
