    My main concern isn’t even that he’s doing a good or bad job, it’s that he’s clearly a dementia patient and shouldn’t be in that position to being with. I had a grandfather who had alzheimers, which is a more severe kind of dementia that just gets worse, and having seen even a glimpse of it due to my parents keeping me out of view of the more severe “episodes”, I really think he shouldn’t be in office at all. Not to mention that dementia has a very high chance of turning into alzheimers, meaning that, if Bidens dementia does turn, he’s only gonna get worse and worse and worse until he can’t even make a sound.

      The office of the president is more than one person. It entails his cabinet and the rest of the appointment apparatus as well as any ramifications for SC nominations. You think the orange Twitter all caps guy with “look my uncle having known nuclear” is better? There are downstream effects that are real beyond this bizarre talking point about dementia that keeps getting parroted. At the minimum be consistent in your logic ffs.

      I wanted to add this extra bit, it seems that Biden would be in the third stage of dementia, with symptoms being: Losing things and minor memory loss, getting lost while traveling, difficulty finding the right words, verbal repetition, and trouble with complex tasks and problem solving.
