putting aside the whole debate about the ticket, my grandmother had dementia. he doesn’t have dementia
I don’t work with specifically geriatric populations and I don’t specifically have dementia expertise, though I work with a bunch of older people I don’t see evidence for dementia. I just don’t.

I keep saying this but i think its clearly him not being able to cover up his stutter the way he used to (due to not being as sharp, which is aging not dementia)

Biden v Trump is a pretty direct ageism thing. Trump is aging worse than Biden, but due to vanity and aging in different ways Trump codes as less old and therefore gets way less shit for it.

Trumps voters don’t care. They do not hold him to any kind of standard whatsoever. Like, you can wring your hands about how unfair that is but, it doesn’t change anything.

Same thing with “wow they should be calling on TRUMP to step down” and it’s like, why? He’s not going to, republicans don’t want him to, so who cares?

that has the same energy as people who were going “why didn’t anybody call for kennedy to step down???” during rbg discourse. like, “because they’re republicans and thus scum”
