The Washington Post: President Biden arrives Friday in Madison, Wis., for what will be a critical few hours as he holds a rally attempting to inject new life into a flagging campaign and sits for an ABC News interview as an effort to demonstrate his verbal and mental ability.

President Biden arrives Friday in Madison, Wis., for what will be a critical few hours as he holds a rally attempting to inject new life into a flagging campaign and sits for an ABC News interview as an effort to demonstrate his verbal and mental ability.

Biden faces critical day to push back against calls to withdrawwww.washingtonpost.com With a rally in Wisconsin and an interview on ABC, Biden hopes to begin turning the tide after days of criticism of his recent debate performance.

I'm a brain doc (Consultation-Liaison psych). For *years* Trump has shown uninterrupted, increasingly severe cognitive symptoms: he's incapable of linear thought *at baseline*. Whatever disrupted Biden's linear thought in the debate is at worst intermittent. Bonus: he's not an overt fascist.

Many are unaware of the basic, fundamental difference between describing observable symptoms (“that person has bluish skin”) vs postulating causal mechanisms (“that person has methemoglobinemia”), e.g. diagnosis. [fwiw “Goldwater Rule” is from pre-DSM III psychoanalytic (not biological) causation].

More on origin of Goldwater Rule from era when psych diagnoses were based on hypothesized "intrapsychic" causation per then dominant psychoanalytic theory. Modern psychiatric diagnosis, broadly speaking, relies upon observable phenomena. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles...

These hours aren't critical, its July, the election is in November Touch grass, WaPo

diagnosis: Joe doesn't know when to shut up. He's unable to shut up when shut-up time arrives. All he needs is an aide with an air horn. Blow it when it's time for Joe to shut the fuck up

Are Democratic Party partisans whining that the pro-genocide capitalist media is unfair to Biden?

you dorks need to relax

Oh that magic finger. Very consequential to Bidone.

"Attempts" smdh

Sadly, it's probably too late to reverse the "flagging" as more than a week of constant media harping and Democrats shooting their own means that any weakness, however harmless or for whatever reason will be highlighted, dissected, and weaponized.
