“He did announce the other day that he’d much rather see Biden as President,” Trump said of Vladimir Putin before noting, “And I agree with him. I agree.”

“Finally, something I can agree with him on,” one person joked, while another added, “So Trump agrees Biden should be President? Haha. It’s not a blunder! It’s a rare moment of lucidity!”

A third user wondered, “Is he short circuiting?,” while a fourth noted, “This should be included in a Biden TV spot that runs nationally. PLEASE.”

Others pointed out how the 77-year-old’s statement did not get much coverage, however, if the 81-year-old president had made a similar slip up he would have been widely criticized.

In another portion of the speech, Trump alleged the Biden administration was persecuting Roman Catholics despite the former Delaware senator practicing the faith himself.

“No one will be touching the cross of Christ under the Trump administration, I swear to you,” he announced. “They want you to say what they want you… what they want to have you say. And we’re not gonna let that happen. You’re going to say as you want and you’re going to believe and you’re going to believe in God. You’re gonna believe in God because God is here and God is watching. And God probably can’t believe what he’s seeing!”

“I will protect the content that is pro-God. We’re going to protect pro-God context and content," Trump continued. “To that end, at the request of the NRB, I will do my part to protect AM radio in our cars. You know, we like to listen to AM radio.”

The unclear statements spark particular concern as many have theorized Trump may be in mental decline.
