Thomas’ column on lying in Washington ignores real liar

In Cal Thomas' March 6 article "Politicians excel at lying in Washington" he brought up several allegations about President Biden (but nothing that has been proven,) and issues from Bill Clinton's infidelity in the 90s. He also insinuated about the President Biden's cognitive issues. Never once did he mention the president with literally thousands of documented lies of the former president and candidate who is running again for president. He also didn't mention the former President's rambling, nonsensical speeches at his rallies.
I watched the State of the Union and found President Biden to be on point and coherent with a vision for the future. When confronted by Republicans during the speech he went off script and used facts to answer their interruptions. I am reasonably sure Trump's response would have to attack without evidence or fact. Please think seriously about your vote in November.
