Ok. Let’s pretend that is true about Trump (I don’t agree), then should we be concerned about a potential Biden presidency for that reason, and should there be some sort of screening?If so, then OP is still pertinent. In my personal opinion, it fits Trump, in yours it fits Biden. We are both entitled to our opinions ... and regardless of who support...the point is the same. Should it be a concern?First, you can not accurately diagnose anyone from afar but you can make observations. A number of articles have noticed changes in Trump’s speech. It is really obvious when you begin to compare the way he used talk, with his speeches...rambling, off topic, incomplete thought patterns.
This leads to a question...should there be a way of looking at this in regular medical exams? Should candidates and sitting presidents be evaluated for this in some? Can it be done without coming off partisan ... violating rights or the Constitution??
People are living longer and healthier into old age, and older people are running for office. The top two Dem contenders for office will be older than Trump should they win, Biden would be 78.
Is Something Neurologically Wrong With Donald Trump?
That fits biden even more than trump.
Trump has always been an off the cuff rambling speaker. Look at his old show appearances. Listen to him on howard stern.
He's the same.
Biden though, over the last few months it seems he is not only rambling, but trailing off into bizarre anecdotes.
No. Such a screening could be used as a pretext for invoking the 25th Amendment.
Biden hasn't even won the nomination yet, and probably won't if he continues his bizarre behavior. Some Democrats are already concerned about his health, even more than the older Bernie who had a heart attack recently.
Thanks for finally giving a thoughtful answer.
