Speaker 1: And the fact that they passed up this chance on
Speaker 1: Super Bowl Sunday is a big mistake. This is the warning,
Speaker 1: and it's Super Bowl Sunday. Today will be the biggest
Speaker 1: betting day, the greatest gambling event in world history. The
Speaker 1: super Bowl is here, but one thing the American people
Speaker 1: won't see is the President of the United States being
Speaker 1: interviewed on the pregame show. And that's too bad. President
Speaker 1: Biden needs to show connection. And the super Bowl audience
Speaker 1: is the largest audience on American television in a year.
Speaker 1: An interview for the Super Bowl at CBS News puts
Speaker 1: the President in front of millions of people who don't
Speaker 1: see him in a normal, relaxed setting. Ever, the President
Speaker 1: is being accused by his political opponents, by maggat extremists,
Speaker 1: of being unfit, that he doesn't have the capacity, that
Speaker 1: he's senile, suffering from dementia, that he did not remember
Speaker 1: when his son died, he did not remember being vice president.
Speaker 1: And the only way to refute these things is by
Speaker 1: showing it's a smear by deed. Nobody says Nancy Pelosi
Speaker 1: has dementia, because it's obvious that she doesn't. President Biden
Speaker 1: sometimes mumbles President Biden sometimes confuses his words. George Bush
Speaker 1: did the same thing, Ronald Reagan did the same thing.
Speaker 1: Even Barack Obama and Bill Clinton did it occasionally. That's
Speaker 1: not a sign of dementia. The attacks are relentless, they
Speaker 1: are ferocious, They are unfair, they are mean, and they
Speaker 1: are cruel. There is no morality, There is no decency.
Speaker 1: There is no restraint within the MAGA extremist cause they
Speaker 1: will do anything to take power. If they will burn
Speaker 1: down the constitution of the United States, if they will
Speaker 1: incite an insurrection, if they will deny the results of
Speaker 1: an election, they will not have a problem smearing the
Speaker 1: president on this question. Every time the Biden team has
Speaker 1: an opportunity to communicate to the American people, they must
Speaker 1: take it. The President must be seen leading, and he
Speaker 1: must take the fight to Donald Trump. This campaign cannot
Speaker 1: be about Joe Biden. It must be a choice between
Speaker 1: America and insanity, between America and Trump, between good versus bad,
Speaker 1: between honest versus dishonest. Donald Trump is a loathsome figure.
Speaker 1: He's a liar. He has been convicted of sexual assault,
Speaker 1: he has been charged with ninety two felonies, and yet
Speaker 1: he is in a position to be elected president again,
Speaker 1: and if it happens, it will be a catastrophe for
Speaker 1: the United States and the whole of the world. It
Speaker 1: must not happen, and the number one way to prevent
Speaker 1: it from happening is for Joe Biden to take the
Speaker 1: fight to Donald Trump every single chance he gets. And
Speaker 1: the fact that they passed up this chance on Super
Speaker 1: Bowl Sunday is a big mistake. And the problem with
Speaker 1: mistakes is that in a presidential campaign, they tend to accumulate,
Speaker 1: pile up, and in the end they can lead to defeat.
Speaker 1: This is not a race that America can afford to lose.
Speaker 1: So the president needs to be in the fight seven
Speaker 1: days a week. Thank you for listening to my political commentary.
