    And your point is?

    My point is that it’s expected to have some mental decline by that age but I would still bet on Biden if they went toe to toe on jeopardy or at a bars trivia night. And while Biden wouldn’t have been my first choice for president to begin with, he is still light years better than trump ever was even at this point and I’ll take Biden over most of the current choices on the left especially because those others have zero chance of winning.

    With and without the help of things like heavy drinking, drug use, lifestyle, etc, everyone ages differently. I know this from my own family and watching the world around me. Trump has been incoherent for a couple of decades now while Biden has been able to control it (for the most part).

      My point is they’re both fucking 80. It’s really silly to ascribe one decline to age and another to drugs. Anyways Trumps still better at the snappy comeback, Biden never had that anyways, so the presidential debate is gonna be sad as fuck.

      Trump has been incoherent for a couple of decades now

      That’s just a straight up lie. maybe 5 years and I’m not yet convinced it’s not because it seems to work.

        You need to work on your reading comprehension. And if you think that A) Debates and political discourse is all about the “snappy comeback” and B) Are impressed by the “insults” that trump got from school children, there is nothing more to say here.

        You have a nice day now.
