FORMER BIDEN CAMPAIGN STAFFER: Joe Biden is in the early stages of dementia and is on medication for it.
"This is the big one, and the one I have the least direct experience with, but it’s been an open secret for some time. Anyone who has had a relative with Alzheimer’s or dementia can tell you, there are good days and bad days. On the good days, when Joe is at his most lucid, his campaign manager Jen will send him out for photo ops or TV interviews… make hay while the sun is shining, you know? On the bad days, Jen just tells the press pool “No Joe today,” and they’re all like, “Okay, cool!” Most of the time, he’s just a little foggy and gets really agitated. But one of my co-workers told me that back in May, there was a day where he thought he was running against Gary Hart in the ’84 primary again. Joe went under wraps for several days after that.
He’s been more lucid recently because his physician, Dr. O’Connor, put him on Namenda. Jen apparently was worried about someone finding it out, because she insisted that he prescribe it under a series of phony names, and then have the interns pick it up. I bet there are a lot of pharmacists in Philly wondering why there are so many young people on Namenda.
The dementia medication has had, um… unfortunate side effects.
The medication has made Joe incontinent. Though his “good days” have increased dramatically, he can barely get through a press event without running to the bathroom. That’s why he didn’t take questions after announcing Harris as his running mate. They weren’t afraid of the questions, the press loves him… they were afraid he was going to piss his pants on-camera.

That sounds like my Mom now!
Perhaps.
Destroy the country to give a failing old man a sense of purpose he won't remember an hour later? Maybe it's worth it. A charitable person might think that very human reaction is an appropriate act of kindness.
I suppose it's possible there is a genuinely charitable person somewhere in the DNC power structure.
Help me out here.
Name one.
It was not a live debate
Maybe surprisingly, chess is actually an acquired skill which takes practice. If you wasted enough time playing chess against a computerized opponent, I can guarantee that you would be able to beat most people who believe that they are good players.
One of the other fire officers that I worked with at a busy downtown station 25 years ago thought that he was one of the greatest chess players who ever lived. At that time I basically only played chess with a small computerized chess board that came from Radio Shack in the mid 1980s. I would play a game or two in the evening every night before going to bed to relax.
The poor guy would spend a lot of time trying to figure out his moves... I would take just a few seconds and beat him every time until he finally got frustrated and didn't want to play with me anymore. The program I was playing against was fairly predictable even at the upper levels, so I recognized situations developing from that predictability. This sharpened my skills a great deal.
Now that I have not played much in years, I am back to being mediocre.
I used to think they might be sandbagging us to lower our expectations, and then he’d come through debates, etc., kicking ass.
I guess it’s possible, but some things just can’t be faked such as the reflection of his script in the photograph. Also, his vacant eyes and shuffling feet seem genuine.
***If you have any experience in dealing with dementia/Alzheimer’s you would know what a HUGE difference 6 months can make....and I mean HUGE!***
I concur. Mama had vascular dementia. We knew she was having some troubles living independently, so she lived with my sister and brother in law for about 6 months. It became a situation where we realized she needed round the clock care. So my sisters and I took turns caring for her, at her home, every week. We rotated, and hired some extra help. She was gone in 8 more months.
I’m so blessed I had that chance to be with her, but when you care for someone around the clock like that, you see how fast the decline is. I think Joe will be around for a little bit longer before he actually passes, but he’s in zero shape to be president of anything, including his own Fan Club.
...why would some random staffer make up something this detailed and put it out there.
___________________________
Because he likely doesn’t have to make anything up.
Meetings are all held face-to-face. That means a lot of people know what’s said.
“Low-level*, young staffers are the ones being delegated to make drugstore runs. So, they would have their names on the script. They see the name of the medication on the script and the bottle. Likely, the same staffer is charged with picking up the incontinence pads. There are a lot of brands. There are shortages these days for hygiene products. Hygiene products come in multiple degrees of protection, which also dictate size. Were the staffers told *not* to substitute brands? Did they ask why? Were they told? Oh, and male urinary incontinence devices are bulky. Anatomy dictates their shape. Many would show under dress slacks. Likely, some sort of additional full bloomer-type product is necessary if there is also fecal incontinence. The 2 would need to be compatible. For people with permanent incontinence, these are usually prescribed and ordered in bulk,so insurance would cover, then picked up in discrete packaging at the pharmacy counter. Would the go-fer be instructed to double check brand and size and degree of protection?
They discuss the campaign to the extent of *joking* about becoming Seth Rich and one is very sure they know the name of the person who ordered it. This staffer is named. Keep an eye out for him in future.
This source is taking a risk. How many staffers are there? How many are young males? Who left at the end of August? Was this person a known Bernie supporter prior? Eliminate the named, most paranoid staffer. Within the group left is the Anon.
Sloppy and lazy. If you like I will go back through my posting history and document the many times I call out anonymous sources - both from the right and the left. No matter who uses it, in all but a few specific instances the use of anonymous sources is lazy and calls into question the veracity the story.
Go to 6:20 in the video... Nothing anonymous about it. Do you have any comments regarding this?
And the point is? That is different. That is NOT an anonymous source.
Their sense of balance is worsened by induced vertigo when they move quickly or stand up quickly.

Watch vids of Biden standing alone. He affects a very wide stance. If that has become habit, then your explanation makes sense.
Regarding staff members picking up prescriptions for Hidin’ ... it’s suspicious. If a physician is prescribing a drug for someone, but is using another person’s name as the recipient, that HAS to be illegal.
If the prescription being picked up by a staffer has Hidin’s name on it, then the staff at the pharmacy isn’t being fooled — and people talk.
Very strange, any way you look at it.

“a whole lotta leaking going on”
LOL! (if true).
Over the last six weeks or so I have begun playing chess against an AI. I will win only playing on a very basic beginner level. But when I increase my level, I lose badly. So I add on helps and hints.
It amazes me that the computer will instruct me not to take an easy piece and it amazes me the computer will often let me leave a knight or a bishop exposed. But I take the hints and I move as directed, and I am finding I win now more often than I lose.
I’ve known the basics of playing chess for well over 50 years. I’m now returning to it with a higher degree of interest
I certainly wouldn’t want to be the heartbeat between Hillary and power.
“The year 1984 seems to hold some significance for dementia patients for some reason.”
For my father-in-law in dementia, 1939 was his go-to year. It was a wonderful year — in his mind. Why 1939: I’ll never understand that, as it basically sucked.
Bernie was the closest to Biden in terms of primary delegates, and the student Red Guard types were enthusiastic about him. Most of the rioters are commie Bernie-bots. It makes no sense to me to coalesce around the allegedly more moderate and senile Biden, especially as he has embraced all of Bernie’s positions.

Perhaps they ran the numbers.
Bernie lost some support for not being radical enough in public. I posit there aren’t enough committed B-bots left to make up the difference in the popular vote. Progs need the middle. Biden with Bernie’s platform and Kamala as back up was their solution.
Also, Bernie is easily characterized as crazy and he had a recent heart attack on the record. Biden’s aneurysms were both in the past.
I’m thinking Bernie for VP and PIAPS for SCOTUS.
Unfortunately, if I’m not going to accept an anonymous source for Trump bashing, I can’t accept an anonymous source for Biden bashing either, no matter how likely true I think it is. But why the anonymity? If someone has something to say, they ought to own up to it.
POTUS is trolling the RATs.
When they refuse millions of voters will wonder why, what is the problem with Dementiajoe, if he’s healthy why refuse the test.
Saying NO is even better than allowing the test.
