What I do see in Biden is man who has crossed that line we will all hit where we start to become physically frailer faster, and that's not necessarily great news either.

Motown Bombers Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 My dad is likely in the early stages of Dementia. He's only a year younger than Trump. His primary care doctor keeps referring him to a neurologist but he refuses to go. One of the things that is apparently a warning sign is his declining motor skills. He stumbles and falls a lot. It's like he's constantly drunk. He also struggles at times to use his hands much the same way Trump did when trying to drink a glass of water. Biden seems pretty physically fit for his age. My dad couldn't ride a bicycle like Biden because he simply lacks the balance. He also struggles going down ramps like Trump. My dad is now confusing night and day. It's ironic they think sleeping is a sign of Dementia when my father can be up all night. His eating habits are also getting worse. His doctor now says he's malnourished. His weight is down to 140 pounds. He only eats graham crackers and chocolate milk now. Biden doesn't seem to be showing any of these signs. He's an old man who fumbles his words. Even when Biden was younger he wasn't a great speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is surprising than a MAGA can see an ailment in Biden, but can't see that their cult leader is suffering from so many mental health problems that he can't stay coherent for more than 30 seconds.

Tiger337 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 My mom has gone through every stage of dementia. My dad has gone through the natural cognitive decline of an elderly person. Biden is a lot more like my dad than my mom. That being said, I think he's old for a president as was Trump. I'd like to see younger leaders in a position which involves a lot of stamina.

Mr.TaterSalad Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 (edited) I was going to post something in response to Archie calling Biden demented yet again but it seems I forgot. Edited May 10, 2022 by Mr.TaterSalad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter the side of the aisle you're on or ideology you belong to, we need younger candidates for President. Trump, Biden, Warren, Bernie all the main front runners and all over 70.

Motown Bombers Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 For as big of groomers as the Democrats are suppose to be, they sure can't seem to groom young candidates. The top 3 candidates for president were all over 70. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 With the electoral college the way it is, someone like AOC isn't going to win a national election. I would look to someone like Buttigieg as the future. They got him out of Indiana, now it's time to get him a more prominent role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you see that tasteless picture he and is husband shared of the babies they adopted. No doubt both of those kids are going to grow up to be non-bianary, satan worshiping lesbians now. Probably paleo vegans too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t seem to find the middle ground. Obama and Bush both suffered for their inexperience. Biden should have run in 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edman85 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I wish there was a way to mute posts that include tweets from accounts that you have muted/blocked. People like Rupar amplify the crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I think it's important we know how crazy that side is instead of burying our heads. Perhaps you can just take a break and go outside and smell the flowers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewsieg Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 A senator/rep looking like an idiot during their questioning of a witness? Tubberville obviously is an exception as I've never heard any other senator/rep ask stupid questions before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
