    Umm... I’ll give you that there probably isnt much a difference in terms of ‘age’ or the the difference is negligible but that statement makes my brain go, nope, nope, nope, nope lol. :)

    Biden could talk in sentences at 78. 80 not so much.

    I don't honestly know and that's why you rarely see me engage with the Biden's got whatever brain problem, but I personally believe the way he speaks now compared to a few years ago is quite a bit different. It could very well be the stuttering.

    My grandpa also became “gaffe prone” into his 80’s but our family nor the doctor were in complete denial about the situation, and we called it by it’s medical term, not a fun-sounding nickname to try and make ourselves feel better. We also didn’t encourage him to run for any offices.

    Sadly I see it in his eye's as he kind of glares and his speech is a bit slower. Saw that in my father when he hit mid 70's.

    Professional politicians are no different than anyone else and/or profession. There is a definite shelf life and the drive and ambition does tail off. Sure, many can go through the motions and milk their careers till 80 plus.

    I was mainly just making a joke, different times of day, different circumstances, I'm sharper than in other situations.

    Sorry but UV treatment of blood is a real thing, and the “drinking bleach” comment never happened. It literally didn’t happen. Trump is clearly not a doctor and it’s pretty obvious he has no clue what he’s talking about when speaking medically. When you have to pull things so far out of context to try and make a point the your argument sort of falls apart.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Oh, I guess the fact that your grandpa suffered from it makes you quite qualified to diagnose it in others, just from how they appear on TV. Shame we don't have doctors as responsible as you empowered by the government to shut Biden's campaign down. You know, for his sake, not due to any political agenda you might have.

    Biden is currently 77.

    Since you can see 1-3 years into the future, I'd appreciate a stock tip or two.

    You are forgetting that Trump plans to serve at least 3 terms.

    "And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning?"

    He was talking about ejecting people with disinfectant or somehow getting it inside us. He used a visual naming bleach as the top disinfectant. It's not a stretch.

    Yeah. And your complete denial of something so obvious must not be due to any political agenda you might have either.

    Let’s run the old senile guy and hope nobody notices he’s old and senile and then when everyone inevitably does notice, we’ll just hide him from the public and deny it and say things like “debates don’t matter”.

    It’s really, really fucking obvious what’s going on and what the Democrats damage control plan is.

    It is very much a stretch. I do see the humor in playing the clip of what he said about disinfectants and then cutting forward to the image of the “best practices” illustration, but it’s a contextual fallacy to equate that with telling people to chug bleach.
