Is this a real issue and if so, is it a real concern to others? It is a huge issue and should be a concern. Biden has always been known for some gaffes, but now he is at times in full blown rambling mode. One thing for certain, cognitive abilities don’t improve with age so if he is decline now what does that look like in 3-4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's relevant though with the pivot to the general likely to occur this evening. And there will be a very heavily coordinated campaign ramping to question Biden's mental state very soon. Greenwald is just getting a head start. Take it with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexava 6,973 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Without an aging decline, I have questioned trump’s mental fitness from the very beginning. And terrified at the excuses he gets from his supporters.. Biden is slipping but I’m still gonna vote for him. With this said both parties suck. We seem to nominate some of the most questionable candidates when we have a whole bunch of good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well be this. As already posted, they straight up invented some BS about Clinton's health. And that's going to go every direction this cycle. They're all old guys. Mental health and health in general will be discussed. 18 minutes ago, bigbird said: Do you think that it's a problem? Compared to the other options? Not really. Especially not compared to the guy who's been proving for a very long time that he's not mentally fit for the job. 19 minutes ago, bigbird said: Do you think it a fair criticism? Again, it's fair to question the mental state of all the candidates. As for bringing Trump into this, it's a necessary part of the discussion. We're all in a "least of 3 evils" predicament at this point, except really it's just 2. Biden is going to be the Democratic candidate, so there's no point in worrying about whether or not he's mentally fit to be POTUS. The question now is- and it's a rhetorical one- is he more mentally fit than King Orange Jackass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe strikes me as humble enough to know he's not the smartest guy in the room at all times, and he'll weigh evidence from experts in the relevant fields with necessary deliberation before acting. Not so with 45, who's an expert at whatever is going on around him at the time. This! ^ https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/trump-thinks-he-may-have-natural-ability-address-viral-outbreaks-n1153061 Trump thinks he may have 'a natural ability' to address viral outbreaks "You know, my uncle was a great person. He was at MIT. He taught at MIT for, I think, like a record number of years. He was a great super genius. Dr. John Trump. I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. Every one of these doctors said, 'How do you know so much about this? ' Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to Dub's point, Reagan had the sense to appoint people who were expert in matters he knew little about. Can't say the same about Trump. And bringing up Trump for the sake of comparison is hardly a "deflection" when you consider the election will be a choice between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably not the very best person to be the next POTUS. But you could say that about almost any other candidate that is going to win the nomination. Bottom line, he's not my first choice but he is greatly preferred over a narcissistic, psychopathic, con man whose only success has been as a reality TV host. Biden will surround himself with competent people. We already know what Trump has done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
