I dunno, maybe the first time, and certainly his handlers think so strategically - even Hitler himself reputedly didn't really care so much about concentration camps, he just said "yeah sure why not?" when someone floated the idea (obviously there's additional complexity there).
My point though is that Biden isn't the only one having "senior moments", even though I hear about Biden having those easily 100x (1000x?) more often than Trump having one - the idea of fair reporting of "news" is LONG dead it seems:-(. (Thank goodness Jon Stewart is back though!!!!!:-P)
Edit: oh, I found one! (where a mainstream news organization reports an example involving Trump rather than focusing more exclusively on Biden) From the good old Guardian too, usually a source that I can count on, at least in the past: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/03/trump-confuses-obama-biden-virginia-rally.
