Donald Trump's efforts to derail an extension of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) authority has drawn more concerns that he either doesn't know what he is talking about or he has grown more confused as he ages.
During a panel discussion on MSNBC's "The Weekend," co-host Symone Sanders-Townsend kicked off the conversation by noting that the former president used his Truth Social platform to rail against a provision of FISA and botched what he was opposing.
That led co-host Alicia Menendez to jump in and state, "He's trying to make this election about Joe Biden's mental acuity when in reality it is Donald Trump who continues to get confused about things."

Displaying comments the former president made on social media, she continued, "So, 2018, he brags; 'Just signed the 702 Bill to reauthorize foreign intelligence collection. This is NOT the same FISA law that was so wrongly abused during the election.' "
"Then on Wednesday he writes: 'Kill FISA, it was used against me and others to spy on the campaign,'" she added.
"We have Fox News pointing out he confused section 702 with Title 1," she elaborated. "I mean, he's not even clear on what he's doing."
"He doesn't know," co-host Michael Steele interjected.
"He has no idea what he's talking about," former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) pointed out.
