Biden and Trump, whose rematch is increasingly likely in the US presidential election, each have fatal weaknesses.
The so-called “judicial risk” is being pointed out due to Biden’s advanced age and Trump being handed over to trial on various charges.
Coincidentally, something happened today that revealed these two people’s weaknesses.
Correspondent Wang Jongmyeong reports from Washington.

The problem came after Biden, who had come forward to urge Congress to pass a border budget to make up for the shortcomings of illegal immigration measures, had finished reading the prepared manuscript.
When asked if there was any progress in hostage negotiations between Israel and Hamas.

″I don’t want to… Let me choose a word for a moment. There was some movement. On the other side… There was a reaction… (Reporter: Hamas?) Oh, sorry. Hamas… ″
Biden, whose cognitive ability was questioned by referring to singer Taylor Swift as Britney Spears and calling out the name of a deceased congressman, got the name of the incumbent French president wrong during a presidential election rally the day before yesterday.

″Germany… Mitterrand of France looked at me… what… why… She asked how long I would be back. ″
Mitterrand served in the 1980s and 1990s and died 28 years ago.
The White House distributed the president’s remarks in a document, crossing out Mitterrand and correcting them to Macron.
Trump filed a lawsuit seeking recognition of presidential immunity, but lost in the first and second trials.
Immediately after losing the presidential election four years ago, when he was put on trial on charges of attempting to overturn the results of the presidential election by using his position as the incumbent president, he claimed immunity as the president at the time, but the court dismissed it, saying, “He is just a citizen Trump now.”

“If I don’t get immunity, then bad Joe Biden won’t get immunity for everything he did to allow the border invasion.”
Trump is currently embroiled in four criminal trials on 91 charges and numerous civil trials, including damages and defamation.
Rather than overcoming your own weaknesses, you should expect your opponent’s weaknesses to repeat themselves.
For one reason or another, the prediction that this will be the most unfavorable presidential election in history seems difficult to deviate from.
