Is that dementia? I’ve not been around enough dementia patients to know the signs. It’s not normal, that’s plain to see. He lost his train of thought, rambled, tried to continue, ended his sentence. I’m not saying he’s coherent, but he recovered and managed to stay somewhat on topic. What was that?

“Is that dementia?”

Yep. My neighbor had dementia. I used to sit and talk with him frequently. He was pretty good at reasoning with things he knew, or things he remembered well. His memory was really bad, but he could remember “the old days” quite well. I’d sit down, he’d as me what day it was. Then about 10 minutes later, same question. Not uncommon for him to ask 4 or 5 times. He was enjoyable to converse with, and occasionally would offer some interesting insights. But he wasn’t running the country, heck, he couldn’t even drive anymore, (he got lost too easily).

I’m no expert, but what I’ve seen of dementia is that it’s can be decline, not a total crash. The ability to reason isn’t always trashed, but mental quickness and memory are significantly impacted.

This is definitely age related dementia. When you have had a parent suffer it you know what it looks like. It only gets worse. There is no way that he is in charge of his own administration. IMO he is fronting for Obama, as Kamala will soon be.

It's called "IRISH DRUNK BRAIN". Biden is an old blowhard Irish drunk.

Yes, this is dementia. I've seen this when my late mother was succumbing to Alzheimer's. I saw behavior like this and worse in the three nursing homes I worked in. Some dementia patients can be violent. Biden is exhibiting a condition called ''aphasia''. It's common in not only dementia patients but in the elderly in general. It's a condition where an elderly person has trouble remembering names, has memory lapses, difficulty forming words.
