[@tsunami770]

Correct. It is a progressive, incurable, and eventually terminal condition.

[@SJK-ROW-K]

Agree - to say Biden could get better as time goes on is ridiculous - that condition gets worse with time

[@natedizzypro]

Never in my life has a presidents mental capacity come into question. The fact that it is a question should disqualify him in every voters mind

[@Smooshes786]

Agree! Trump is out of his mind and a wanna be dictator. I just don’t understand what draws people to him as their representative? Was it the sexual assault chatter or the disrespect of a disabled person? Maybe the failed marriages and failed businesses or the sex with someone while Baby Mama Number 3 was recovering from childbirth? Boggles the mind hey?

[@connerclark3678]

I’m not gonna vote for Biden either. However just curious, were you born after 1988? There were questions about Reagan’s cognition in his 2nd term, though he seemed to get by.

[@tomodonovan5931]

@@connerclark3678 I was old enough to remember the skit Johnny Carson did on Reagan's memory. Funny at the time, but now you realize what Reagan was going through. I see the same in Joe Biden. Reagan was at the tail end of his term, and his condition got worse to the point where he wrote the farewell letter to the nation about riding off into the sunset afterward. I see the same behavior in Biden as everyone else does. But political differences make one blind to obvious fact. If Joe Biden could not handle a simple debate, how will he handle a crisis such as a Cuban Missile Crisis or similar episode. I'm not complaining about Joe Biden, but I am not taking that risk on his mentality of Reagan back in the late 80s. Reagan probably would not have run in 84 had his symptoms developed in his first term. You would have got Bush Sr a little bit early.

It’s because our democracy is so great it allows someone like me to go head-to-head with the big boys and I will only spend $5000. In a great democracy two people can tell two people and so on and so on can defeat any amount of money.
