Ha, you probably thought I would say no, but of course he‘s not ALL there. He looks and talks a little better now than the early days in his basement. That had me really worried. I’m less worried now
But as long as he’s standing and breathing, he’s got a real good shot.
And I know the follow up question, are you really going to vote for a president with early stages of dementia? Yes. You voted for Trump for similar reasons. Policy will be set by those around him.
As I mentioned before I can acknowledge Trumps positives, yet his negatives far outweigh the positives. The disaster we’re experiencing after COVID arrived is all on Trump. It’s called scoreboard.
In the war against the invisible enemy, there is only one commander in chief and in his most important role and responsibility he choked beyond belief and put the onus on his 50 kids.
Second reason, he’s deliberately pitting Americans against each other and ultimately we ALL lose when we’re at each other’s throats. He’s made America so ghetto It’s not funny.
I see. Would you trust an Airline Pilot or Surgeon...or how about a financial manager or even you kids school bus driver, if they displayed Biden's current condition? Me neither.
I watched my father, who lived with us his final five years, progress with dementia. I sat in on all his appointments and tests with experts...and trust me, Biden is, and has been, progressing along the spectrum of dementia...it only gets worse. I actually feel sorry for him...but also feel disgust towards those around him, especially his wife, who knowingly prop him up and drag him through this sad show.
Rationalize it however you need to...but don't expect rational folks to play along and pretend that voting for a candidate for US President on the dementia spectrum is wise or intelligent...rather, it clearly shows pure political blindness and hatred.
Since you brought up "scoreboards"...Biden has a 47+ year scoreboard full of bigotry, China, Russia and Iran hand-holding, and Trade and economic destruction...in fact, I can't think of any meaningful wins.
Although you did acknowledge a couple Trump positives, which I respect, I noticed you missed some key ones...so here, I've provided a few more:
