Trump erroneously announced a nonexistent suspension of all trade and cargo to and from Europe in a scripted primetime address. Are they concealing a serious condition?

Oh my God.

How did I forget about that?

These last few years are like an alternate reality.

Really? That’s odd.

I’ve already judged your cognitive performance on the Lancet thread lol. Not sure you want to see the results.

He is just old like Biden. We have had a number presidents drop dead in office. Bruce Lee was a picture of health in the prime of his life and next thing we know he is dead. We have never had a president in anywhere near as good of shape.

By comparison perhaps....

William Howard Taft, 27th Potus to include all 337 pounds of him.


Yet Trump seems more a Henry VIII type. :)

Though he's overweight, he seems as alert as ever, and has the stamina of some people chronologically way younger than him.

Biden is the one you should be worried about.

I'm focused on Republican Rightwingers almost all of whose patriotism gland has atrophied.

And what does the above have to do with the thread topic?

I look at the results. Everyone has flaws and strengths. The left in my opinion on the whole are more screwed up than Trump. Just look at the Portland issue. These are not peaceful protester but criminals trampling all over the rights of the citizens caught up in their mayhem and terrorism. To think the left supports such hate and intimidation every bit as evil as what they claim to be fighting to stop. If a person walked down the street with a Trump hat on anywhere near these hateful people masquerading as protesters they would be lucky to only end up in the hospital. Sounds like the tactics of the KKK.

Well, if you had a Fox News view of what is happening in Portland you might think that....but, as they say in any process: garbage in / garbage out.

Here is a fact check of Barr's account of what was happening in Portland from Oregon: Fact checking Barr’s testimony before Congress on Portland protests - oregonlive.com

=https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/fact-check-how-violent-are-the-portland-protests/]

Portland protest: Crowds mostly peaceful with violent incidents

https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/07/21/portland-feds-protests/

The general consensus is that there was some violence in Portland before the Feds showed up, but it was after they showed up that things really became a problem.

Do you have any evidence to support your assertions?

How is saying "I Am A Democratic Caucus" stuttering?

Why would those words even come out of the mouth of a mentally healthy individual?

Or telling a crowd of people he was Trump's VP?

I can see it now...

SENILE JOE: I called this meeting because we need to put sanctions on Japan.
OFFICIALS: Yes, sir. Right away.

One week later...

OFFICIAL: Sir, did you mean Japan or China?
SENILE JOE: Sorry, I meant China.
OFFICIAL: Too late.

People with a stammer have a very hard time getting out the words they want to say. It is kind of like how right-wingers have such a hard time with humor.

It's quite possible. Alzheimer's, dementia, etc., there are a whole bunch of diseases that start showing up in that age range. He notoriously does not exercise because he believes the body has a finite amount of energy to spend over its lifetime, and his diet is atrocious. Could easily be a series of small strokes.

He's dragging the everloving **** out of his right leg.

Stroke, most likely.

Oh, and being a *****.

Again, on Biden's worst day ever, he still is more coherent off the cuff than Trump is.

I'm trying to think of examples of funny liberal politicians, with any sense of humor whatsoever.

Pelosi...Schiff...Schumer...Whitmer...Biden...

Sorry, which liberal politicians even have a sense of humor?

About 99% of comedians are liberal.
 
I don't know, but it is possible.

Sorry, but I would take a politician (especially liberal ones) without a sense of humor, than being like the conservatives, where loads of their politicians are a JOKE.

The internet's been abuzz with as-yet-unsubstantiated rumors of another unscheduled run to the hospital for Trump yesterday. Regardless of whether that turns out to be true, it does call to mind nagging questions that have been lurking at least since Trump was rushed to Walter Reed in November for an unscheduled visit that the White House later implausibly claimed was part of a multi-visit routine physical.

Putting aside his strange behavior and increasingly obvious mood swings ("nobody likes me!"), the oddities are starting to add up. An apparent inability to walk normally unassisted at times, occasional difficulty holding objects, frequent issues with slurring his speech or other difficulties with language (e.g., "oranges" of the Mueller investigation), frequent bouts of confusion, and recently an open admission to having struggled with the "very hard" questions on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment.

Is there something going on here?

I don't want to be overly critical of your poll; I'll just add that I was looking the "I don't care, I just want him out" option. ;)

He's not concealing anything very damn well.

Two thingys basically.

One, medical, ie, Republicans patriotism gland has atrophied while Trump's doctors are all quacks.

Two, opposing Trump the Mad Mystic is the patriotic thing to do.


Your serve...

No matter how you slice it it's still baloney.

Trump wants to be the leader of the dictatorship of the global right, second only to Putin, third only to Xi Jinping while being well ahead of Kim.

That "Republican Rightwingers almost all of whose patriotism gland has atrophied" deny that the man ain't right. That' wasn't too hard to understand. Keep up.
