The president’s campaign recently claimed on X that former President and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump, in mocking Biden’s delivery of his State of the Union address, was actually mocking Biden’s “lifelong” stutter. The Washington Post and other liberal media outlets dutifully repeated those marching orders. One self-described “stuttering advocate” told Politico “she worries that Trump’s behavior could ‘normalize’ insults directed at people with speech impediments,” adding “many advocates are hopeful Trump’s mockery will inspire Biden to have an open conversation about stuttering, which advocates estimate affects 3 million people nationwide.”

There’s just one problem, though: the narrative is all bullshit.

I don’t remember when I first realized that I stuttered.
