I don’t think Biden has lost control of his mental faculties. I think he is struggling with the power of speech. I think he has a hard time quickly and concisely articulating his thoughts. I would bet that he is still a decent (but slow) writer.
But you can’t do the job of president by email. You must be able to communicate, quickly, accurately, and under pressure.
I don’t know when my grandparents (all four of them) actually transitioned from difficulty speaking to significant cognitive decline, and that’s the problem with Biden. At some point, he will simply be following his caregiver’s prompting rather than actually making a conscious decision, and we won’t know exactly when that has happened.
Trump, on the other hand, is more like my SO’s grandmother. She could form full, complete, mostly angry sentences, but they were lacking coherent direction or intention. She could communicate smugness and anger all the way to the end, but rationality began to disappear years before she passed. Everyone knew she was senile except herself.
Trump is well into his own cognitive decline. He’s been able to mask it pretty well because he’s always been an insufferable, narcissistic prick, but his smug anger has largely become autonomic reflex rather than conscious intent.
Biden has always been an insufferable narcissistic prick as well though.
The idea that’s being pushed about him being “a decent man” is pure nonsense. He was a lying sack of shit his entire career, and his brain literally leaking out of his ears isn’t going to fix that.
You’re right, and by God… I’m worried. We need someone who can get in that seat and do the duties of the president. Imagine Biden’s not in his right state of mind and weapons shipments to Nazis in Ukraine need to be approved, or a railroad workers’ strike needs to be put down, or Israel needs more bombs to drop on Palestinian villages. Who is going to pull through? Who’s going to get up and say, “put those migrants in concentration camps and close the border, escalate tensions with China even if we sabotage renewable energy transition, and tonight I’ll make a speech where I lie through my teeth without stuttering or losing my train of thought”?
Well, this may be controversial, but, in my opinion the torch needs to be handed down to the next generation of CIA directors’ children, Star Trek: The Next Generation. These youngsters might just have both the patriotism and cognitive abilities to keep the child killing machine well-oiled. Slava Amerkani!
The last few weeks isn’t what concerns me. The next 4 years are what concerns me.
He reminds me of my grandparents about 4 years before their respective deaths.
Seriously. My dad is 84 and Biden makes him look 20 years younger lol
Exactly.
