Meh. I've heard just about enough of this "one bad debate" bullshit. I voted for him in 2020, and in the primary. I'll vote for him again if he's the one on the ballot in November. But that was an absolute trainwreck, and it was not a one-off. He's been like that before, he'll be like that again, and I don't appreciate anyone trying to tell us that it's not significant
Today he referred to Zelensky as Putin, and Jon Stewart had a compilation of a bunch of similar episodes. He's 81. He looks and sounds like he's 81. They keep trying to downplay it, but any time he speaks publicly, it's a risk because this is how his mind works now. I still will and think everyone should vote for whomever is the democratic candidate this November, but we're seeing what we're seeing, and we'll see more of it.
He doesn't sound 81. Both my grandmas are over 81, they don't sound confused and they don't keep making the mistakes Biden does. He sounds like he has dementia or some other similar mental problem.
I interact with A LOT of nursing home patients. I’ve met extremely sharp 90 year olds, and very bad off 65 year olds. Biden definitely would lie somewhere in the middle. He seems like if I asked him what year it was and where he is at right now, he’d have to think about it for a minute. He might even say the wrong year.
Yep, what you're saying is that senility is prevalent in that age group. Which is obviously true. Still, the issue is not his age directly, but his loss of cognitive capacity, which may be linked with ageing
Fuck no I wouldn’t, but hey let’s give him the codes to the nukes anyway. I don’t think Biden has had the keys to the car since he became president. Westexec, I mean his cabinet are the ones driving the car.

Yeah of course, but I want the president to actually be the president. With biden it's an unknown which people have exactly what level of involvement in running the country, and with Trump you have blatant corruption and corporate lobbying being the driving force. Both choices are so awful its almost unbelievable. Democrats are better but both are still objectively bad. Especially for the world's economically biggest and most powerful country
His cabinet is not legally allowed to make certain decisions, especially nuclear ones unless there are specific standing orders for actions to take.
It does t even have to be nukes. Imagine if something like 9/11 happened again. Biden would be absolutely incapable of handling it or making the tough calls that only he as president could make.
Biden’s staff are worried everytime he talks that he’s going to stumble, mumble or make a gaffe, showing his age. Trumps staff are worried he’s going to prove what an absolute piece of shit human being he is. Or, at least they were worried until they realized his cult doesn’t care.
He sounds and looks WAAAYYYY older than 81. Clint Eastwood is in his mid nineties and can compose himself just fine. The age isn't the only problem, it's the severe and dangerous lack of basic brain use
