The GOP president was always a mouthpiece anyway.

It's why I try to talk about the Heritage Foundation policies instead of Trump. It's a lot of rich assholes, not old white crazy guys with mob-boss style speaking.

Woodrow Wilson had a stroke and his wife secretly ran things.

He's not even necessarily doing it because he's old. He just doesn't care. His handlers will tell him what to sign anyway. Why would he want to waste time listening to people talk? There's not as much power in the presidency as he had hoped for. He can't even get alone in a room with small children anymore now that the secret service is always present. All he's really got left to live for is waiting for whenever he can give more orders to kill brown people.

How many people will need to get shot in the neck till you realize they are hypocrites ?

Yeah, where are all the Enlightened Centrists now?

hypocrisy is a defining characteristic of the modern right. That's why discourse and argument with them has become pointless. Nothing they say can be trusted to be in good faith.

Bullshit. No way he can multitask like that. I mean, he’s already trying to do all of that anyway, and just look at how well that’s gone for him.

Early dementia refers to the progression of the disease, he’s unlikely to die from it during this term.

As opposed to early onset dementia which is when a younger person than usual is diagnosed.

Yeah, he’s already seven years past the average lifespan here in the US.

Early as in the stage/symptoms, not "early on-set".

Yeah.... As someone who has a lot of geriatric patients, even elderly people in good health can regularly doze off during certain parts of the day. Not sure how anyone could claim any cognitive decline at his age and weight could be considered early onset.

Tbh he is doing fairly well for his weight at that age, meaning he's still alive. Which is baseline better than most 80 year old overweight and inactive men.

Imo I think he had a little stroke when he went up to Alaska to meet Putin. I think that's why all his staff looked scared as shit during that trip, and why he's been less active and traveling less since then. Long plane rides are pretty bad for people with peripheral edema, and clotting issues. Also explains the bruising on his hands, they got that dude stuffed to the gills with blood thinners.

This was my reaction.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure they're basing 100% of their analysis on his public appearances, which is likely when he's at his best. He's either following a script or he's been coached on what to say immediately prior to going in front of a camera.

In any case, America is cooked. He's not going to step down, and there's still a nontrivial amount of support for him to be installed as grand pubah.

…we can assess his brain for abnormalities during autopsy

Good luck finding it.

Add murder to the list. Having Epstein killed in his cell is likely, but is obviously impossible to nail down at this point.

He has however bragged about bombing those Venezuelan fishermen on his order.

I know Reagan was one, who was the other? Are you counting trump's first term or somebody else?

Seems pretty clear he's been having TIAs, which greatly increase the odds of a CVA!
