      Not really. I’ve had some close family get dementia, it doesn’t look like that. If Biden had dementia, there is 0 chance they would have stood him up for a debate. It’s really a condition called “fucking old”.

        This definitely is dementia. I know it from my own family. Especially with people having good days and bad days. The talk now about how Biden just had a bad day, is just reinforcing it.

        Trump was showing what it looks like to “just be” “fucking old”. Probably by the time he is Bidens age he will be equally far demented, but he is three years younger. There is absolutely no way that Biden won’t be a complete vegetable in the last year of the upcoming term and for Trump it is a pretty solid risk.

        The DNC needs to switch out Biden now. They should have done it many months ago, but the denial and delusion about Bidens health are going to help make Trump win this one.

        Oh no, definitely both of them suck, and both are showing cognitive decline. Biden is just showing it worse. Or maybe it’s just that Trump has always been a rambling moron, so it’s harder to tell if he’s having a senior moment or just being himself.

        Either way, Trump’s supporters are too stupid to care or even notice his mental health. Half of them probably don’t even believe in mental health. The people Biden needs to vote for him do notice and care though. It’s just a fact of life, and the DNC really needs to come to terms with reality.

          I guess from that point of view it really is only a problem for one of the candidates.

          For what it’s worth, watch a video of Trump after 9/11. He was still a narcissistic ass, but he was far more cogent.
