Speaker 1

And the fact that they passed up this chance on Super Bowl Sunday is a big mistake. This is the warning, and it's Super Bowl Sunday. Today will be the biggest betting day, the greatest gambling event in world history. The super Bowl is here, but one thing the American people won't see is the President of the United States being interviewed on the pregame show. And that's too bad. President

Biden needs to show connection. And the super Bowl audience is the largest audience on American television in a year. An interview for the Super Bowl at CBS News puts the President in front of millions of people who don't

see him in a normal, relaxed setting. Ever, the President is being accused by his political opponents, by maggat extremists, of being unfit, that he doesn't have the capacity, that he's senile, suffering from dementia, that he did not remember when his son died, he did not remember being vice president. And the only way to refute these things is by showing it's a smear by deed. Nobody says Nancy Pelosi has dementia, because it's obvious that she doesn't. President Biden

sometimes mumbles President Biden sometimes confuses his words. George Bush did the same thing, Ronald Reagan did the same thing. Even Barack Obama and Bill Clinton did it occasionally. That's not a sign of dementia. The attacks are relentless, they are ferocious, They are unfair, they are mean, and they are cruel. There is no morality, There is no decency. There is no restraint within the MAGA extremist cause they

will do anything to take power. If they will burn down the constitution of the United States, if they will incite an insurrection, if they will deny the results of an election, they will not have a problem smearing the president on this question. Every time the Biden team has an opportunity to communicate to the American people, they must take it. The President must be seen leading, and he must take the fight to Donald Trump. This campaign cannot

be about Joe Biden. It must be a choice between America and insanity, between America and Trump, between good versus bad, between honest versus dishonest. Donald Trump is a loathsome figure. He's a liar. He has been convicted of sexual assault, he has been charged with ninety two felonies, and yet he is in a position to be elected president again, and if it happens, it will be a catastrophe for

the United States and the whole of the world. It must not happen, and the number one way to prevent it from happening is for Joe Biden to take the fight to Donald Trump every single chance he gets. And the fact that they passed up this chance on Super Bowl Sunday is a big mistake. And the problem with mistakes is that in a presidential campaign, they tend to accumulate, pile up, and in the end they can lead to defeat. This is not a race that America can afford to lose.

So the president needs to be in the fight seven days a week. Thank you for listening to my political commentary.
