Yes... or at least not in any way unusual for a world leader. We all do stupid stuff like trip over invisible cats, forget names and dates, misspeak names (or forget faces), etc. I expect that any leader has a PR team covering for them.
Heck, if I could get a PR team that covered my foofs and gaffes throughout the years, I would sign up for that, muy pronto.
I do disagree.
And for the record, I'm about 2 years younger than Trump and I'm dealing with a husband who has Parkinson's, so I have a very very very good idea of what "not able to function" and "not fully aware of their surroundings" looks like.
The metric is not "belongs to a different political party."
I agree... and by that metric, Trump shouldn't get into office. ANY office.
Would it be appropriate for me to point out that Biden has a valid drivers' license and has been seen driving cars? Heck, he can even drive a standard. I'm not sure that Trump has a drivers' license (point of order here -- it is NOT unusual for New Yorkers to NOT have drivers' licenses... the traffic is horrible and most take public transport or use drivers), and frankly I would NOT trust him anywhere NEAR my 19 year old granddaughter!
More importantly, Biden speaks in complete sentences and sentences that are on topic. He has enough of an attention span that he attends briefings and takes notes on them (unlike Trump.) No industry executives have ever slammed him as "meandering" (unlike Trump https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/14/ceos-at-...essed.html)
Most of all, Biden knows how to pick administrators who do NOT get convicted for crimes. (https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/21/politics/...index.html) I prefer my presidents to be able to pick people who are better than that.
Fair enough. We agree to disagree.
I have no issue with that.
