Just look at some of his speeches from the last time he was president and you’ll see the difference is night and day. Before it was just stupidity, but now it’s so much worse and he can barely form a sentence compared to then. And for all the people saying “well, Biden was clearly in decline too and everyone tried to hide it.” And you’re probably right. But you know what? He’s not the president right now. And if it was such a big deal back then it should be an even bigger deal now because we are still letting it happen.
Honestly I’m pretty sure he was already in decline back then. If you dig up old interviews with him from the 80s/90s, he was still an egomaniacal dumbfuck but he was at least somewhat articulate. If you can stomach enough of the fucker to watch all 3 in a row you can pretty much watch his brain turn to soup.
I genuinely suspect he was diagnosed with dementia around the time of that “man, person, woman, camera” incident. Usually when neuropsychological testing like that is done, they do several tests, not just one. One test that is typically given along with is the clock drawing test, which can be highly indicative of dementia. Given the everything about his personality, if he did not brag about drawing the best clock they’d ever seen…I would guess he had some pretty damn concerning results on that bit.

I feel like I notice more poor grammar from lots of people these days. Weird turns of phrase and all that. And my mind goes to COVID.
But I’m not making excuses for him. Just, noticing a pattern? Maybe it’s social media, not COVID. Who knows!
COVID, even in mild cases, has been linked to long term (up to a year was one study duration) cognitive loss.
