I'm going to bet on dementia rather than ill intent in Biden's case.  If he really has forgotten how his son actually died, that's extremely sad. He really shouldn't be running for re-election if that's the case.


He hasn't been diagnosed with anything. If he does get diagnosed with dementia or some other health condition, then that changes things but until then, Joe Biden is bullshitter extraordinaire.

Only God knows.

Let's say Biden's doctor did find that he had either dementia or alzheimer's. You think they'd tell us (the public)?

In the 2020 campaign, they used Covid as an excuse for why Biden stayed in the basement (and even did most of his interviews from there) instead of the usual presidential campaigning and rallies. When he did do rallies, hardly anyone would show up. I'm sure his staff were happy to keep him in the basement because that meant less chance for gaffes (which he still managed to do from the basement, like telling charlamagne tha god in a video stream interview that "you ain't black" if you vote for Trump instead of him).

I don't know how they're planning to maintain the illusion this time around. Assuming Trump is the nominee, you'd think they're gonna have at least a couple debates (without Covid being a big threat, not sure how they could skate around it). Those should be highly entertaining. Last time, Trump made a serious error in how he debated Biden (constant interruptions, talking over him, asking him irrelevant questions, debating the moderators, etc). To independent minded people, I think he came off as a bully and an asshole. This time around, if he stays on topic, and is measured, and lets Biden try and articulate complete thoughts and sentences, I'm not sure how it would be possible for Biden to come out of those debates looking better. Even still, doesn't mean Trump will win.


can you imagine being in his cabinet or whatever and having to tell him the truth

or getting to tell him depending on the depravity of your sense of humor

i would've tortured the living fuck out of reagan's rotting mind



I think we'd know if he'd been diagnosed. It'd be reported or leaked by now.

And surely he would be advised to step down or something if he'd been diagnosed, whether it's made public or not.

When you put it that way, you're probably right.

Still, maybe I'm just cynical, but I feel there's a non-zero chance that we wouldn't be told. It was a totally different time, but remember what happened with Woodrow Wilson when he had a stroke and his wife ran the country, unbeknownst to the public who would only find out years later?

Sure, but fraud happens all the time in politics and no one goes to jail.

Maybe he doesn't have diagnosed dementia, but would any honest doctor at this point give Biden a health assessment and say he's fit to be president? The guy who needs a full time staffer whose job is to help him find his way off of a stage?

they will let millions die before doing anything that isn't politically expedient

keeping health care inaccessible

Quote from: SGR on May 23, 2023, 05:27 PMHey, it's more likely than an honest lawyer.

public defenders who work hand-in-hand with the police and the prosecution and judge are a special breed of scum but some lawyers are legit advocates for the disenfranchised and are the real deal snd put their lives on the line

doctors are just fucking bullshit cowardly cunts who let people die in pain instead putting their beach houses at risk

besides the above at least lawyers aren't pretending to be on your side if they really arent

in a city you'll find a solid handful of honest or even respectfully dishonest lawyers

youre lucky to find one honest doctor -

their dishonesty is baked in - even the meaning of the word "doctor" vs the truth of the profession is a lie

That's fair.

And I forgot about my favorite honest lawyer, Jim Carrey.
