" It really isn’t possible to diagnose someone with a brain disorder of cognition by watching them on the campaign trail. Anyone who does so, whether a doctor or a layperson, really shouldn’t be trusted. " — Andrew Budson
So far the choice is either “A” a well meaning elderly bumbler or “B” the worst President our nation has ever had (verified by a poll of 500 historians)! Ted is leaning towards “B”.
This is very informative. When I read many of the comments here attacking Ted for his “hatred of Biden” and “support of Trump”, it helps make sense why the next elections are actually, beyond all sanity, be Biden vs Trump. From the outside, one would believe it is impossible and that both sides, democrats and republicans would come to their senses, but no, based on what I read here, it seems many do actually believe in this tragic joke.
Thanks to the internet, with little effort, anyone can make money by presuming intelligence and pontificating in areas they are not actually experienced in.
What makes matters worst for Biden is it appears he is uncoachable. He has to clearly demonstrate he is not senile and it does not help if he continues with his creepy Grandpa Simpson behavior. I would assume his advisors tell him to stop with the stories he likes to tell-house burning down, appointed to Naval Academy, grew up Polish/Italian/Puerto Rican, attended a black church (and led civil rights marches when he was 12), went to a synagogue more than the rabbi, stop the creepy whispering, was a gay rights advocate when he was in high school -1960 and touching/kissing small children. It only hurts him but for some reason he just can’t stop despite it only hurts him every time he tells them.
Someone recently opined in the NYT that Biden would continue to run for his seat (and take all the criticism from Trump, the GOP, etc.). Then, at the Democratic Convention, announce that he wouldn’t run in November after all and have someone like, say, VP Kamala Harris or CA Gov. Gavin Newsom to run instead. It could very well happen. But no matter who the Democratic nominee is in November, I will vote for that nominee over Trump (or Haley). When you’re drowning and given a choice between a rock and a life vest, you don’t wait for a lifeboat!
It’s truly amazing, isn’t it. According to the MAGAts, Biden is so senile he doesn’t know where he is or what he’s doing, yet, at the same time he’s running the biggest criminal organization in the world so effectively that nobody can find any evidence of any of his crimes. And … not … one … single. MAGAt can see the logical contradiction between those two ideas.
Someone watching a television indeed can not make such a diagnosis. It is forgivable for an average citizen to make an offhand snap judgement as shown in your cartoon. . It is quite another thing for a responsible professional, such as a special prosecutor, to make a similar judgment outside his area of expertise and publicize it. That is highly unethical, unprofessional and obviously partisan.
The media: will he be releasing the results of a cognitive test?
Biden’s staff: there will be NO test done
If there’s one thing that will continue fanning the flames, it’s flat out refusal to prove you’re mentally fit for the job. Not that proof would stop the attacks completely, but it’d get a good number of major media outlets off the story.
But Biden wants this to be the story so people stop talking about his funding of Palestinian genocide.

I don’t know about evolutionary anthro-biologist, but Bret Weinstein is an evolutionary biologist.
Is the former profession the only one qualified to use both meanings of the word b**ch?
