Sen. Donald Trump Jr. criticized Sens. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) and Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) for participating in a “cover-up” of President Joe Biden’s current health condition and for supporting Biden’s policies “100 percent.”
Former President Donald Trump’s eldest son spoke at a Trump rally in Doral, Florida, on Tuesday. Said Voters need to “hold accountable those who lied” about Biden’s health and whether he is the “right person” for the Democratic Party, the crowd argued.
“We have a number of senatorial races going on right now,” Trump told the crowd, “Sherrod Brown in Ohio, Jon Tester in Montana. They’re voting almost 100 percent for Joe Biden. They said with a straight face, ‘This guy is the guy for us,’ and when you look at the results, it’s a miserable failure.”
It wasn’t just the Biden administration and the left-wing media that lied to the American people about Joe’s cognitive decline. Senate Democrats also lied. Sherrod Brown & Jon Tester They also deliberately helped cover it up.

Trump’s comments came after Tester and Brown, who are struggling in Republican-leaning states, said they would continue to support Biden’s continued campaign for reelection, amid calls for Biden to withdraw from the presidential race and “stand down” in the aftermath of the June 27 presidential debate.
During the presidential debate, Biden appeared frozen, spoke hoarsely, failed to finish his prepared closing statements and referred to claims that have since been debunked, including the “idiots and losers” allegation and the fabrication that “very fine people” were “very fine people.”
“They’re pretending they have nothing to do with Trump,” Trump added. “They’re distancing themselves from him because they’re campaigning and they’re running for office. But you all voted for Trump 100 percent. You keep telling us this man is going to bring you peace and prosperity and success. But he’s totally failed.”
Trump Jr. went on to tell the audience that the upcoming election isn’t just about “the president,” adding that Republicans also need to “win school board elections” and win state legislative elections.
“Those who lie to us must be held accountable for their lies,” Trump added.
Bernie Moreno, the Republican candidate facing Brown in November, responded to Trump’s X post, saying his opponent was “part of the greatest political cover-up in American history”.
“Sherrod Brown is part of the largest political cover-up in American history,” Moreno said. I have written“He knew Biden was disabled and unable to perform his duties, but hid that from the American people in order to push through his own extremely liberal agenda. It’s shameful.”
Sherrod Brown is engaged in the largest political cover-up in American history. He knew Biden was disabled and unable to perform his duties, but hid this from the American people and tried to push through his ultra-liberal agenda. It’s disgraceful.
Now he is trying to get away with what he did. It’s cowardly. https://t.co/Ivhvh54yca

In a recent interview, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) said people like Tester, Brown, Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pennsylvania) and Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nevada) are “going to be thoroughly questioned” about whether they think Biden is “fit to serve another four years as president.”
Graham added that while Biden’s campaign had said the president had a cold during the presidential debate, the South Carolina senator believes “this is an issue that’s been going on for over a year and that Democrats have been lying about and covering up.”
