    I beg to differ and so does WebMD.

    Now these drugs aren’t going to miraculously turn him into a nuclear physicist but they do help with memory, anxiety, attention, reasoning and language skills. All skills which you need for public speaking and debate.

    When they stop taking those meds their abilities in those areas are noticeably diminished.

    Have you seen him take any unscripted questions? Have you actually watched him? It’s sad.

    It really is sad. And I don’t mean sad as in pathetic though it’s that too... I mean it’s sad what they’re doing to this guy who should be living with assisted care. Not running our country. And I don’t even like Biden but at this point I really just feel pity for him.

    All the G7 had to do was stroke Biden and he agreed to everything they wanted. Biden may be president but he isn’t working for Americans.

    Biden represents liberals in Europe better than Americans, that's for sure. Senile old grandpa running around over there passing out taxpayer money.

    you guys are so incredibly naive. Whenever I see a weird sentence that is cut off practically midsentence, my first reflex is to double check. ESPECIALLY if it's going the way I want it to. Nothing more embarassing than going "aha" only to have your great case blow up in your face. I spent exactly 25 seconds to see that this was complete bunk. Biden did say "some people don't know what covid is". Indeed Biden who had been repeatedly talking about COVAX sometimes known as the Covid Project which is run by the WHO and Unicef amongst others. So yes, Biden meant to say either covax or the covid project, and said covid. big whoop.
    As to the ambassador thing this is where the only one looking like a total fool is the "journalist". Biden thanked the attaché standing in for the ambassador...an ambassador. Smarmy ******bag raises his eyebrow saying that Biden probably doesn't know who the ambassador is. Now of course;;;THERE IS NO AMBASSADOR for the time being, hasn't been named yet. So, yes the attaché stands in for the ambassador, and Biden corrects the transcript to note that it is AN ambassador because there isn't an actual person serving as ambasador yet. So the only fool there is this journalist
    didn't look any further into your so poorly put together fake news
    While you all really should know better by now for falling for this crap over and over and over again, this "journalist" needs to be seriously hung out to dry.
    Of course none of you care because you saw exactly what you wanted to see and thus have zero curiosity in discovering the truth.
    You are so intellectually lazy
    shame on you

    I beg to differ, and I know more than WebMD, after 41 years of medical practice.
    And here, you conveniently forgot this part (from your own source):
    "But the improvements don’t seem to last long -- about 6 to 12 months. They mainly delay the worsening of the disease for a period of time." - which is what I said.
    Unlike you, I don't need WebMD. I learned my trade in pre-med, medical school, residency training, PhD scientific training, and 41 years of practice. I've treated demented patients, numerous times. I know that the expectations from families and patients would be similar to what you selectively quoted, but real life results are very different and very variable. Minimal improvement. Not lasting. We're still struggling to develop something better. The FDA has just approved another path to treatment but it is controversial and poorly demonstrated.

    What I countered is the notion that you somehow pump a demented patient full of dementia drugs and at the peak of their action (like you naively said) they will be up to the task of participating nicely of a presidential debate, going on and on about a multitude of complex issues. No such thing. That's science fiction, that's fantasy, regardless of what you *think* you're getting from WebMD. In the real world, all we can get is the patient being slightly better for a few months, as in, slowing down the dementia process more than reversing it.

    Nice try. It's lovely when lay people think they can outclass a full-blown MD-PhD with 4 decades of experience, by quoting a website intended to simplify Medicine for the consumption of lay people.

    That the best defense you can muster up, try to change the topic? Can't deny what you see in Joe, obviously.

    Not exactly an endorsement of Trump that you think someone who belongs in assisted living (which is sad in a pathetic way) is proving much more competent than the Orange Clown.

    Nah, Joe's not competent at all. Even without dementia. But with dementia, he probably couldn't legally sign a will right now.

    That is called do your level best to run down the poster that gave the information.
    It is a classic for Democrats/Bidenistas to do this.
    Blame the messenger.

    Well you are your own messenger. Failing grade for your effort.

    Perhaps his win says more about his opponent than him

    This afternoon I plan to enjoy a 12 oz bottle of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale with a previously purchased enormous Burrito.

    Guided by the media. I will keep saying this until it sinks in. Trump is who got defeated but not by Biden. Even Biden's voters allege they only voted against Trump. This is what the media planned all along. Starting when they ran the story told by Obama that Trump was elected by the Russians. This lie was believed by many voters.
