      Sleepy Joe was very publicly cognitively impaired for years. I don’t think “our guy is as bad as their guy” is a good point to make on this one.

        I don’t remember him saying things like “Mattel is a country”. I remember him agreeing to do a debate while sick, which was stupid.

        I think the difference between a very bad day and mentally impaired is a lot wider than you speculate.

        That said I agree with you only because he DID step back from the race, and had he done that A LOT FUCKING EARLIER then Kamala might have been able to dodge the bus she got thrown under.

            You can tell this wasn’t mental illness because he didn’t immediately fire the secretary of health and human services after and replace him with RFK.

              Oh absolutely, Im just already tired of people pretending he didn’t say stupid shit all the time, especially near the end when the dementia was obvious
