People seem to think there is something wrong with Donald Trump lately – including Rev. Al Sharpton.
While appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe,” the civil rights activist told host Joe Scarborough he thinks Trump is “losing it,” The Hill reported. Scarborough went through a timeline of Trump’s latest rhetoric and legal battles – including being ordered to pay E. Jean Carroll over $83 million and being oddly quiet on his opponent Nikki Haley – Sharpton added that Americans are seeing him decline. “I think that it is certainly that, but I also think that it goes with the fact that he’s losing it,” Sharpton said.
“Because let’s not forget, he ran against a woman in ’16 named Hillary Clinton, right? He had no problem. He’s losing it.”
Sharpton feels it is time for Trump to wrap his reign up, comparing his thoughts to a conversation he once had with the
late great Muhammad Ali. Towards the end of the legendary boxer’s career, Ali told Sharpton when he knew it was time to retire. “Ali told me one day, toward the end of his career, ‘I saw the openings, and I just couldn’t get the punch there. I just couldn’t,’” Sharpton remembered.“The openings are there for Trump. He can’t get there; his mind is not there anymore. And they need to take him out of the ring before he gets knocked out.”
He may have a point. Adamant about not dropping out of the GOP race, Haley pointed the finger to Trump’s age as a factor of why he can’t run the White House properly, according to CNN. She reminded Jake Tapper during an interview of Trump’s “temper tantrum” after his victory in New Hampshire as well as questioned her former boss’ morality.
But President Joe
Biden wasn’t far from receiving Haley’s wrath either. The former U.S. ambassador said it is “absurd” for the country to be stuck with two 80-year-old candidates – Biden is 81 and Trump is 77.RELATED CONTENT: Tim Scott Stumps For Trump In ABC News Interview
