Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

I'll stop you right here. That's a false equivalence, or a weak analogy, whichever you prefer.
Again, you are not a doctor, and I am not one either. When an actual doctor diagnoses him and says that he is not competent enough to be president, in public, I'll come back here and admit that you have a point.
He did say Zelenskyy's name. You either forgot that, or didn't notice, AHA! I don't think you're competent to be a Lemmy commenter (ok, just joking.)
It's absolutely not a bad analogy, it's actually quite apropos since the president's other title is Commander in Chief, and he also could be shot in the line of duty as others before him have been. Why do you want to down play this so bad? You just enjoy abusing the disabled that much? Or do you like gaslighting others?
Again, doctors cannot publicly say he has dementia without losing their license. Either because of HIPPA, or because of doctor/patient laws regarding diagnosing someone who you've never seen. So unless Biden tells his personal doctor it's okay to release this info, you won't get that. And it's an absolutely preposterous standard to have imo but ofc up to you.
You can have a medical condition without being diagnosed. Diagnosis is a description of what's being observed. It's completely observable in Biden in recordings that he has aphasia. If you need to take time to educate yourself about aphasia, go ahead. You seem very confused about it. If you want to wait for an "official" press release, go for it, but this is just like when there was OBVIOUS ELECTION interference happening and people were saying "well idk, let's see what the judge says." LOL we can see it!!! In front of our faces!
If you could kindly time stamp where he says Zelensky's name: https://youtu.be/0WGDsrRUsTc?si=nnDCT4nNisQu7a6T
Eta: nvm! I saw it! I didn't remember that part, my bad. I still think he's having aphasia issues.
Commanders in Chief are not first line soldiers lol
Ah, I didn't know that. But someone who is an expert in the field could chip in. Right now, it's only political pundits, rich people, newscasters and gasp Hollywood stars!
Actually, here's a couple of them:

https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-03-07/joe-biden-age-memory-alzheimers-cognition
I'll concede that those may be biased, so if you find links supporting your claim from alleged experts in the associated medical field, please do share.
They still get shot at? Do you think people with cognition errors should be in any dangerous job? Why not have our offshore welders all have down syndrome, we could legally pay them less and they'll be easier to convince to go in those deep tunnels. And it benefits society for them to do that, we all need cheap energy, right?
Experts in the field CANNOT speak up without losing their licenses and possibly being sued. They CANNOT diagnose someone they do not have a doctor-patient relationship with, where they've seen the person for that specific condition within the last year. The ONLY reason so many medical experts were speaking out about Trump was because they were so worried and were fine risking their license over it, and because they were not actually "diagnosing" him - most called him 'a narcissist,' not someone with narcissistic personality disorder (the latter being a diagnosis, the former being a character trait arguably).
Use your own eyes. Read about aphasia. I think you can put 2+2 together on this one. You don't really need an expert for this.
Lol!
Why is that funny?
Lol!
