I think that is who we should be focusing on, instead of one 77 year old Democrat attacking another 78 year old Democrat on health.
In any case, Don "Sniffles and Dementia" tRump should have no hope of making health of any candidate an issue.
Don't fall for the "Hillary is at death's door" trap again.
tRump does not dare release his health records or his financial bona fides

Obama had bigger year 2013 than tRump 2019. Obama first 1130 days 70%, bigger than tRump 42.5 or 50%
S&P 500
Jan 20, 2009: 804.47
Feb 24, 2012: 1366 up 69.8 %
Jan 20, 2017: 2263.69
Feb 24, 2020: 3225.89 up 42.5 %
And that is not counting today's drop.
Even if we use the intra-day high of 3393.52 from Feb 13, 2020, tRump only managed 50% compared to Obama's 70%.

... Smollett has damaged everyone else who has ACTUALLY been a victim. He has damaged their credibility.
All such claims will get harder scrutiny which means that some perpetrators will be released in similar cases.
All witnesses in such cases will have a harder time on the stand.
Juries will be less likely to believe victims who have ACTUALLY suffered violence like Smollett falsely claimed.
If you want to support the United States of America justice system to take down tRump, then you have to support it when it investigates and prosecutes crimes which bring that justice system into disrepute the way Smollett has tried to do.
If you want the American Public to believe a verdict against tRump, then you have to support the justice system defending itself against the attacks on its integrity.
Nice straw man you got there. Nobody is arguing that. What Smollett has done
