The two men are almost the same age. Biden’s slight seniority is only an issue because there’s so little else to raise
Wed 30 Aug 2023 19.11 BSTDonald Trump, who continues to lead in Republican primary polls – is also an elderly man, just three years Biden’s junior, and demonstrates even more worrying signs of both cognitive and physical decline
LOL. What a crock of shit. While Biden can't even make his way off a stage without help, can't remember the names of the people in his immediate circle, speaks to dead people, struggles to keep his feet, can't make a coherent statement without a teleprompter (and then only barely), needs Jill at his elbow all the time to guide him along, jokes about his house catching fire and losing a cat while finally addressing people in Hawaii who lost everything, including loved ones, Trump is still sharp as a tack despite his age.
Another Trump assassination piece by another Biden apologist. Nothing new here. You don't even have to like Trump to smell the bullshit in that article from miles away.
Nor is it the case that Trump is demonstrably fitter than Biden. By many accounts, Trump’s physical and cognitive health is poor. He’s both elderly and obese, which puts him at greater risk of a host of mental and physical problems, including dementia, cancer and cardiovascular failure. He has evinced significant cognitive decline, saying he can’t remember notable conversations and events, and that he doesn’t know people he has clearly met.
During Trump’s presidency, some of those around him worried that he had lost his mind. Over the years he has grown less and less coherent, more paranoid, more conspiratorial. His speech is erratic, his thoughts disorganized, and he makes simple factual errors – for example, seeming to forget where his father was born. As Trump’s years in the Oval Office ticked by, the question of whether there was something neurologically wrong with him became all the more urgent.
The man says he can’t even remember saying he has one of the world’s best memories.
The article simply points out that they're as bad as each other
Neither of em should be. in the race
Blobby, no one is going to be perfect in their late seventies. I'm not even 50 yet and I can't remember where I put my keys down 30 seconds ago.
But right now you can watch a video of Biden trying to address the press and a video of Trump addressing a rally and clearly see the absolute gulf in cognitive abilities between the two.
But yeah, they can both get fucked. Just don't think there's something better waiting in the wings, at any age. Politics don't have room for the competent, only for hustlers and puppets.
BB
He lost his mind in what respect? Please enlighten us all on that one.

TRUMP 2024, TUCKER 2028!!!!
I loved the world when Brent was below $50, and you could get cheese and steak for under R150/kg and lots people weren't killed in some stupid war every day.
