'At least 10 minutes of incoherent rambling' in every Trump speech: CNN's Phil Mattingly
CNN's Phil Mattingly expressed bewilderment on Monday that there has been so much focus on President Joe Biden's age when former President Donald Trump isn't exactly a portrait of lucidity himself.
Mattingly's remarks came in light of a recent poll showing that the overwhelming majority of Americans believe Biden is too old to be president, whereas a significantly smaller majority say the same thing about Trump.
"If you watch all hour of any Donald Trump speech or event, there is at least ten to 12 minutes of complete incoherent rambling, flubbing who leads which country -- Turkey being the latest," he said.
Former Republican pollster Lee Carter said that Trump simply gets "forgiven" for such rambling for seemingly inexplicable reasons, as she said Trump supporters see his verbal blunders as "a different kind of gaffe" compared to Biden.

Panelist S.E. Cupp, meanwhile, said that Biden can't simply hide from the fact that most Americans think he's too old for the job.
"But if politics is perception, this is the perception, it's really hard to combat it," she said. "You could focus on policy, just talk about the things you've done and the things you're going to do. But this is the big albatross over the Biden campaign at this point."
