The media felt free to report on Biden's mental decline.

Biden was obviously declining 4 years ago and the media gaslit and pretended it wasn't happening. It wasn't until it was undeniable and the whole nation watched it on-screen during the debate (and some powerbrokers within the party like Obama and Peolsi pulled the trigger) that it became "acceptable" to talk about.

Everything that trump ever said was hardly more than gibberish.

Biden has always had a speech impediment. People often mistake it for him being slow. He just has to speak very slowly and carefully to get his message across.

trump had been in full decline for a while now. Just try reading the written versions of his speeches. It's like someone having a stroke all the time.
