    You’ve never seen what dementia can do to a person. Or, just the general confusion that comes with age. I’m happy for you, honestly it sucks to watch. Someone who used to know everything suddenly gets confused on the way to a restaurant they’ve been to a thousand times. Forgets why they called, or even that they called you in the first place. And, importantly, have their opinions flip on a dime with no warning whatsoever.

    This isn’t necessarily dementia, it can be caused by any number of things, ailments that younger people would brush off without a thought.

      It’s almost certainly not dementia. He’s definitely in mental decline, and that is more than sufficient to explain what we’ve seen.

      Believe me, I know all too well. I’ve had a few family members die from Alzheimer’s. Losing someone is never easy, but you lose that person long before they pass away and it’s heartbreaking.

      My point is that age is merely a number. There are people well above the age of Biden and have all their mental faculties.
