"as sharp as he was 31 years ago" OH yeah... there's a real ringing endorsement

Enough with the worrying, former Vice President Joe Biden's brain surgeon says.
As some voters murmur that the gaffe-prone Democratic presidential candidate's age is cause for extra concern this campaign cycle, Dr. Neal Kassell — the man who performed surgery on Biden three decades ago following two brain aneurysms — came out swinging for his former patient.
Kassell dismissed fears about the 76-year-old Biden's mental faculties, noting that he's "as sharp as he was 31 years ago" and assuring people that the hemorrhage and subsequent operations did not result in any brain damage. "I am going to vote for the candidate who I am absolutely certain has a brain that is functioning," Kassell told Politico. "And that narrows it down to exactly one."
Biden's physician, Dr. Kevin O'Connor, backed up Kassell. "Vice President Biden is in excellent physical condition," he said. "He is more than capable of handling the rigors of the campaign and the office for which he is running."
In fact, several experts told Politico that voters are placing too great an emphasis on the age of several candidates, particularly the five septuagenarians who are running, including Democratic candidates Biden and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), 70, and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), 77, as well as 73-year-old President Trump and his lone Republican challenger, former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld, who is 74.
"They have prospects for survival that extend well beyond the four-year term of the office," said Dr. Jay Olshansky, who led an American Federation of Aging Research study last month that sought to determine how likely it is that a candidate would die while in office. "The bottom line is their chronological age does not matter at all." Read more at Politico. Tim O'Donnell

Oh, and all kidding aside, pretty much NO ONE is as sharp at age 76 as they were at age 45. That’s a natural consequence of aging, and suggests that Kassell is a lying POS.
“Narrows it down to exactly one”
Did he just endorse Trump?
Between this and his own wife's "Just swallow", the demoncraps are really setting the bar to new lows.
“The bottom line is their chronological age does not matter at all.”
That’s exactly what they said when Reagan was running... right?

“...noting that he’s “as sharp as he was 31 years ago”...”
Not bad for the dullest knife in the drawer!!!!
“...as sharp as he was 31 years ago...”
That’s not saying much, Doctor! *SMIRK*
LOL! Post 27. GMTA! :)
Right on, my FRiend! :^)
I thought that before one defended something, one had to have something to defend. Defending Biden’s brain is the same thing as proving a negative.

“...he’s “as sharp as he was 31 years ago..”
So he’s the same asshole only 31 years older.

The Plugs Biden Campaign internal polls must be really bad—thus the hilariously lame recent comments by Mrs. Plugs and Plugs’s neurosurgeon.
 "Here, see for yourself," declared the woozy surgeon. |
That is NOT a ringing endorsement IMHO.
Declared it to be functional.
"You're still as sharp as a tack," Mueller tells Joe on his 'smart banana phone.'
(Well, as long as Pedo-Joe gives us his personal assurance that his cerebral capacity is undiminished in there...)
