The political relationship is that they both have ambitions for the presidency and Trump has described Biden as corrupt.

Joe Biden Is Facing Questions About His Age And Mental Acuity. What About Donald Trump?

If you think criticism of Trump you read is unfair, you can critique it on its own merits without going, "But Biden!"
You must have a different definition of "bad" than everybody else. Here's a "little" list (it's over 1 meg). I'll be waiting for your list of Biden's naughties.

Why are you constructing a strawman? Context matters.
The reader may decide if I'm strawmanning you. I'm not. You don't want to talk about Trump's mental failings. That's obvious at this point.

I said constructing. You hadn't made your avoidance of the primary issue part of your argument at that point.
I acknowledged that he had ego issues. What mental failings of his do you think are relevant to the current issue of child abuse?
So now you know what I think and what arguments I'm making better than I know them?
Let me give you some advice: don't quit your day job to be a psychic.
The current issue isn't child abuse. Lol Jesus Christ how many times must it be said to you? Make your own thread if that's what you wsnna talk about.

A recent poll certainly looks like people don't think Biden has the mental fitness. When asked, they voted 35% YES, and 64% NO.
Joe Biden Is Facing Questions About His Age And Mental Acuity. What About Donald Trump?
The president is only three years older than Trump, who routinely goes off on bizarre tangents, mixes up important people and blatantly lies.www.huffpost.com
People have been hounding President Biden because he sometimes get caught off-guard when they ask him a tough question. The media on the other hand has said little about convicted felon Trump's mental state which, if you look closely would almost certainly appear to be worse than President Biden's state. Biden I see being a guy who fumbles because he's tired and stressed moreover he has had a stuttering issue since he was young which certainly isn't his fault. Also Trump is an oathbreaking insurrectionist. He should be spending the rest of his natural life in prison, but here we are in this election pretending that it's perfectly OK to nominate and elect someone who is going to burn the country down around him.
But the same poll also asked if it is more concerning to have a President who does not tell the truth, or one who might be too old. And in that poll, they responded 68% that the one who doesn't tell the truth is more concerning, 32% for the one who is too old.
Thinking people have many things going through their heads when their watching candidates running for election or when they're actually voting for them. It's for that reason that, even after the debate which began all this fuss, the polls are actually moving slightly in Biden's favour rather than Trump's. People are beginning to notice Project 2025 -- and they notice that Trump is lying when he denies he knows anything about it. That may well make a very big difference in November. In fact, I truly believe it will.

No, you posted your argument for anyone to read. Anyone can see that you're avoiding the issue of context.
It's current because the whistleblower testimony is current from last Tuesday (July 9th). It's relevant to this thread because it provides context about the relative mental state of the current contenders for the presidency, specifically Trump's reference to dating his daughter vs Biden showering with his daughter or Hunter engaging in pedophilia.

The context of this thread, however, is between and among the American people and Donald Trump, not between the candidates. We will determine Donald Trump’s intellectual acuity via our own conceptual standards. Which has nothing to do with Biden.
Look, we all know what you and your MAGA cohorts are doing. You cannot defend Donald Trump’s clear and obvious stupidity. The man is so narcissistic that he’s cognitively retarded. And it’s apparent to anyone that watches and listens him on the tv screen for more than a selected 5 second sound bite. So whenever it comes up, you have to try and deflect the focus off of Trump and onto Biden. And that’s what you’re doing here.
But something that is really interesting about this thread is that the Democratic Party itself is "asking the questions" about Biden (I don't think always productively) but that the Republican Pary has no questions at all about Trump. So, I wonder if that doesn't say something about the parties themselves.

We all already know Trump is an idiot. He’s been consistently behaving and talking like an idiot for as long as he’s been in the public eye. That’s why no one is asking IF Trump is an idiot. Everyone already knows it. And his supporters don’t care. That’s why the news and his party are not talking about it.But something that is really interesting about this thread is that the Democratic Party itself is "asking the questions" about Biden (I don't think always productively) but that the Republican Pary has no questions at all about Trump.

As a presidential candidate his issues with other candidates are relevant.

It’s not about his “issues” it’s about his intellectual competence.
