The whole question I had around that was; what would make your physician choose to give you a cognition test? The answer is; a reasonable suspicion that you are showing signs of cognitive decline, i.e. dementia. So: he was bragging that "my doctor thought I might have dementia, but he gave me a test and I showed that my brain is broadly functional".
There's some implications he may have had a "series of mini strokes" which would have led to such a test. He claimed that he hadn't had a "series of mini strokes" when no one said he did (a journalist did theorise he had a stroke, but not as specific as a series of mini strokes). So yeah, pretty blatant that one.
I’m surprised he didn’t brag about the size of his strokes.
The biggest strokes you’ve ever seen. Doctors tell me all the time they’ve never seen such big strokes and - hillary. She can’t handle big strokes like that. That’s a shame, China sent us this virus.
There's evidence that even a mild case of covid can cause permanent mental decline. He wasn't doing too great before he got covid, but I'm sure getting covid up to the point he had to get supplemental oxygen didn't help.
You all forgetting who is currently president and the lengths to which his team goes to hide his failing cognition? Trump said some dumb shit but the things Biden says and does are genuinely scary.
Mixing up lybia and syria was maybe the most troubling, cuz he kept doing it. You cant make those kind of mistakes when leading the most powerful army in the world in history
Psaki and the whitehouse are constantly playing "what biden really said/meant was..." - notice too how youll almost never see clips of him talking, just transcripts (that are edited for clarity)
It’s a daily occurrence. Examples abound, too numerous to spend time listing them all. Google “bidens mental health” and read to your heart’s content. Some funny/scary videos as well.
He got his ass beat at home, came to school in dirty clothes, ate free cheese sandwiches for lunch, then made fun of everyone else to try and make himself feel better about his shitty situation.
Surely if there are so many examples you could provide a source for just one, right? Unless you're just talking out of your ass, but why would you ever do that?
What has Biden said that's "scary"? The fuck does that even mean? You don't have to list all the numerous examples, but just one would suffice. Should be easy for you if they're abound.
It's like that Eugene Mirman story where when he was a kid he remembers his parents getting a letter from the school saying "Eugene does not appear to have a learning disability." Which oddly enough is one of the most sure indicators that you do in fact appear to have a learning disability.
Ehh, they had a lady follow me around for a week in grade school because they thought I was slow. It was a whole thing. At the end of it they ended up putting me in middle-school reading and math classes, turned out I was just really bored with the work they gave us. My mom gave me the letter they got when I was older.
Thankfully many schools now actually test for this starting in kindergarten or first grade and move kids into advanced classes to keep them challenged. Bored, unchallenged kids get in trouble, so finding them as early as possible and keeping them engaged helps everybody win.
My wife is a nurse. I was giving her the cliff notes of the day and Trump's "IQ" test. She immediately recognized it was a basic 'round 1' dementia assessment. Passing it is the 'norm'. Failing it means you may be exhibiting signs of dementia and need to be checked further. It was at that moment I went from bemused to concerned that he was bragging about how well he performed on the test.
