Yet, you're apparently "qualified" to state that "Trump most certainly does NOT have dementia". Thank-you for your expert assessment, Dr Todd!

quote At age 82, I suspect Biden was/is suffering from dementia. And by the end of his second term (if completed), Trump will be 82+. Hmmm...

Okay?
Means nothing, in spite of what Matt Drudge and the rest of the TDS "journalists" would have you believe.
For example... my 90+ "adopted mom" was still sharp as a tack when she died. Her body just failed her, physically.
I have seen nothing about Trump to lead me to believe that he's even the slightest bit impaired. Sure... he rants and he trolls. But he's always done that. And the best part of it is, he keeps people - especially his "enemies" - guessing. As SNL would say... "strategery".
Hell, maybe he mis-speaks. I've done that all my life. (Lots of times in my 20s, but that was for other reasons we won't discuss.)
But you can bet that every time he does, the MSM is going to jump all over it.

quote Serious question... do you honestly believe Donald Trump will be around for the "long game"? Even if (that's a big IF) Donald Trump is mentally competent, he's not exactly a picture of physical health.

Serious answer...
He's got as good of a chance as anybody else his age - and better than many.

Hell... people made a big deal about Hillary's swollen ankles, and lots of other stuff. She's still alive and kicking.
Over the past two years, Putin was reportedly "on his death bed". Same story.

And Trump has the best health care in the country (world?) available to him.
Sadly, I think he's more likely to be taken out by a lunatic, than to die of natural causes before the end of his term.

Maybe those bleach injections are keeping him going.

So, Don is saying he broke up with Jeffery Epstein because he “stole” staff from the spa at Mar-a-Lago to work at Epstein’s island. One of the staff he’s referring to is Virginia Giuffre. This girl was a 16 year old high school dropout at the time. My question is why would you let a 16 year old girl, work in a spa where she could be ogled by older men/women? That in itself should make you think what Donald is worried about. When coupled with the fact that Giuffre is linked to Epstein, Prince Andrew, and Ghislane Maxwell and she won a large settlement from Prince Andrew for sexual molestation while she was underage committed by Andrew (and others?) and that she committed suicide due to the harm she suffered should make an objective person ask what is Don hiding or afraid will come out?

Don doesn’t have the best reputation for treatment of women. He’s cheated on his wives with prostitutes, forced his attentions on women, lost legal battles about attacking women, was known for going into backstage at beauty pageants where contestants were in various stages of undress, and brags about grabbing women by the “kitty”. Here’s a question for you: Do you want him around your wife, sister, daughters or granddaughters?

Hmmm? Like Smokey the bear says, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.”
