And you expect Biden to have a sound mind to understand these memos, let alone to actually remember them for more than a day? Compared to the elderly and dementia patient Biden, Trump is a theoretical physics professor.

[–] Dark_Blade@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I’d rather have neither, but at least Biden isn’t a card-carrying villain; just a very old, decrepit man who’s way too old for the job (which Trump is too btw).

[–] dragonflyteaparty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Cool, so Trump is now the same age Biden was when he gearing up for this presidency. People with your (incorrect) view were saying Biden was too old then. So that means Trump's too old now, right? I'd also love to know why a life long stutter equates to dementia. If that's true, then people I know have had dementia since they learned to talk.

Equal rights for stupidly incandescent lights!

It seems that people got a little twisted over this.
