The Parkinson's angle in particular has been so fucking strange to me because it is very obviously the result of a game of telephone with "dementia -> alzheimer's -> parkinson's" because MUMBLING AND FORGETTING THINGS IS NOT WHAT FUCKING PARKINSON'S IS

Like someone in either a GOP or press group chat mixed up the two diseases and we now have to deal with all of this hot air because they've committed to it. It's so fucking weird!!

He also has spondylosis and arthritis plus peripheral neuropathy, which is the reported cause of his stiff gait
