Viewers of Fox News’ “The Five” may have been presented with comments from former President Donald Trump they haven’t heard before.

Jessica Tarlov, one of the liberal co-hosts of the show, presented viewers with some recent comments from Trump that ranged from bizarre to disturbing.

“You said, ‘OK, you don’t need to watch him, let’s just hear what comes out of his mouth.’ And I put together some of Trump’s latest cognitive beauties from the last 10 days. He said you need an ID to buy bread. Has anyone shown ID to get Wonder Bread lately?” she asked.

She continued, “He said that he ran against Obama in 2016 — he ran against Hillary Clinton. He warned that Biden will get us into World War II, which I’m pretty sure we already fought and won. And yesterday, he confused Jeb Bush and George Bush and said that Jeb got us involved in the Middle East.”

Perhaps this is just some kind of 3D chess effort of appearing to be confused to generate any attention. However, it seems to be a far stretch to strategically mess up names and facts with the hope that it will cause a stir, raise questions about your mental state, and then help you in the polls.

Tarlov added, “And then, of course, there are his authoritarian posts on Truth Social calling for the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to be executed. And saying he’s going to investigate media companies that he doesn’t like. Can you imagine if Biden said, ‘You know what, I’m going to look into that Fox News. They don’t seem to like me over there.”

Trump may be looking good now, especially with a recent poll that showed him 10 points ahead of President Joe Biden in the general election. But if he wins the nomination, he and his comments will receive much more attention, and there is a chance voters’ sentiment could drastically swing the other way.

Supporters of the former president probably will not like what follows.

But you have to have standards. If you’re going to stalk Biden and focus on every bizarre utterance and sound or malapropism that comes out of his mouth, then the leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination deserves at least some of the same scrutiny.

For conservatives, it may be easy to dismiss Trump talking about the supposed need to use an ID to buy bread, or Biden getting us into a war that ended 80 years ago.

But a lot of Americans will see an octogenarian and a septuagenarian running for office who both seem to say the strangest things that don’t make sense. Except one suggests a top-ranking general deserves to be executed and news outlets should be investigated for treason — which carries the death penalty — and the other declares he’s going to bed during a press conference.

Despite inflation, the left’s excesses in pushing gender ideology, and concerns about Biden, in a close election, those independent voters may simply decide that the older, sleepy, and less rhetorically threatening candidate is better than the guy who seems to have an itch for retribution and executions.
