Conservative Host Says Trump Has Lost His Cognitive Abilities: ‘It Happens When You’re 77’

There’s not too many nice things you can say about Megyn Kelly, but at least she isn’t afraid to tell it like it is. While calling in on a recent edition of Glenn Beck’s show, the journalist was discussing the 2024 election when the host asked if she thinks Donald Trump “has faded from where he was in 2020.”

Yeah, I do,” Kelly admitted. “I mean, I’d take him over Joe Biden any day of the week. I don’t think he’s going to, you know, fill out this term, never mind a second. But there’s no question Trump has lost a step, or multiple steps.”

“He is confusing Joe Biden for Barack Obama. I know he’s now saying he intentionally did that — go back and look at the clips. It wasn’t intentional,” she insisted. “Look, any of us could have a slip of the tongue, but it’s happening to him repeatedly.”

“The reference about how somebody is going to get us into World War 2, confusing countries, confusing cities where he is, and it’s happening more and more,” Kelly noted.

Both 81-year-old Biden and 77-year-old Trump’s mental capabilities have been called into question due to their age, with many believing they’re both too old to be in the Oval Office for another four years.

“With all due respect to Trump, this is what happens when you’re 77 years old,” the obviously Republican Kelly said. “Trump seems inhuman, but he’s not inhuman. He’s a human. He’s a man. Ron DeSantis’ line about Father Time spares no one was a good one.”

Kelly wrapped it up by saying, “So, look, if it’s between Trump and Biden, I don’t think there’s any question who’s more fit and capable, but are we really going to pretend that Donald Trump is just as vibrant and mentally sharp as he was in ’16?”

As we’ve repeatedly reported, Biden has insisted his age isn’t a setback. “I tell you what, someone said, ‘You know what? That Biden, he’s getting old, man. I tell you what. Well, guess what? Guess what? You know, the only thing that comes with age is a little bit of wisdom,” the commander in chief stated at a rally in September. “I’ve been doing this longer than anybody, and guess what? I’m going to continue to do it, with your help.”

Meanwhile, Trump has steered away from mentioning his age, and instead, has focused on attacking Biden’s mental and physical health.

During a recent chat with Sean Hannity, the businessman stated of the president, “We have a man that can’t put two sentences together. We have a man that doesn’t know he’s alive. And he’s backed up by the media.” Of course that sit down with Hannity was edited, so if Trump had any gaffes, we wouldn’t have known about it, as Hannity would’ve edited it out.
