You’re sanewashing Trump’s absolutely bonkers behavior by focusing on the critics. The man can barely form a sentence and posts on social media on the mental and writing level of a ten-year-old. Americans are choosing to accept this from their leader. He is 80 years old and obviously very unwell. Terminal-stage Soviet Union had more competent leadership. |

I think it's legitimate to focus on his critics, because they've been oddly ineffective. His 2024 victory should never have happened, but it did thanks to the incompetence of his opponents and critics.
Their "losing the plot" may be an important part of that: he says crazy things, but that goads his critics into also saying crazy/wrong things, which probably helps neutralize whatever advantage they'd have. Sure, partisans wouldn't be affected because hate him, but they don't really matter, because they hate him.

I don't think that line of attack works. It may be true, but many of his opponents hate him and would say that regardless of if it were true or not.
