You can be a good president by hiding in your office and approving good policy made by your excellent team, but you can’t become president by doing those things, especially when you’re down. The nominee needs to be able to be coherent in public a lot, doubly so after having what appears to be a very public senior moment. People who have been around old people know that a few good days doesn’t mean their loved one is better, it just means they were good days.

You say that as if he has dementia, which he does not. Why can’t we accept that maybe the debate was a “bad day”? Why are we pretending it’s now the norm for how he behaves?

Has he ever been that, though? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen him speaking as much as any other president. I mean, the Dark Brandon stuff didn’t come out from him sitting behind his desk.
Why are we pretending that Biden is a whole different person than he was even one year ago over this? It’s so insidious.

Because it isn’t a bad day. It was the standard for any time he isn’t in front of a teleprompter.

This is just delusional. Biden has given the least number of news conferences since Reagan. Huh, do you remember what they were covering up with Reagan again?

We’re not. Most people just got to see what has been apparent for a while now.

Why are you so sure he doesn’t have it? That sure looked consistent with early dementia. And we don’t need this to just not be the norm, we need it to be a single solitary event that never happens again. Uncommon bad days are too many bad days. He needs to be “on” too often to trust to chance that he’s never going to do this again.

Dark Brandon was a meme coopted by his social media team for in-your-face policy. It had nothing to do with him speaking. And again presidents can just do policy and speeches at their own pace, candidates need to be interactive and ready.

You haven’t had to have frequent contact with an elderly relative have you? A person that old absolutely can go from sharp as tack to having noticeable cognitive difficulties in a year. That’s a long time for an elderly person.
Why are you so sure he doesn’t have it?
Huh??

Like the 4 years in office haven’t been enough. Did the debate wipe your memory or what? That’s so cynical.
It had nothing to do with him speaking.
It had everything to do with him speaking. Remember this from not too long ago? Even if this “social media team” coopted it, it had been around and memed about before that. Just because his aides did the awkward fellow kids salute doesn’t mean they’re the ones behind it.
candidates need to be interactive and ready.
This candidate is already in office and doing presidential things every single day.
You haven’t had to have frequent contact with an elderly relative have you?
You don’t know me and you’re already talking down to me like I haven’t had that terrible life experience. I wouldn’t be so confident if I were you. Especially when you say things like “That sure looked consistent with early dementia.” Like, bruh, you either know dementia from serving at a mental health center enough to diagnose people by their gait and to scold people off about it, or you don’t.
