I can't say for sure but probably yes, probably early vascular compromise dementia. He has had two aneurism clipping brain surgeries. Couple those two surgeries to cerebral vascular disease over 77 years and you have a failing brain. They probably gave him a dopaminergic drug to improve brain function and hence he refused a drug test.In your professional opinion, do you think SloJo exhibits signs of dementia?
I am a former dementia care nurse. Dementia patients do have times when the curtain lifts and clarity returns. It does not typically happen for as long as 90 minutes, nor can it be commanded on demand. It has nothing to do with what drugs the patient is taking or what foods they ate or what stimulus they have received. It is totally unpredictable. One common factor though, with dementia symptoms, is nicknamed "sundowners" by caretakers. As light dims and sunset approaches, dementia patients typically become more confused and disoriented. Bright lights can counteract this phenomenon. You know -- like on stages.
Biden does not have dementia. I believe -- from observing his gait, physical mannerisms, struggles with speech and repetitive use of simple words and phrases, and inability to attend for long -- that Trump is in the early to more likely moderate stages.
So go ahead and vote for the mentally-declining racist bully who can't even manage to make a taxable profit in 10 out of 15 years of allegedly being a "billionaire." Vote for the spreader of hate and division. Vote to end America.
Biden does not have dementia.... Biden wins!
We now know Biden does not have dementia.
Trump was like a young child talking wildly in a room of adults. They cannot wait for him too shutup so adults can talk..Wallace will not run another Trump debate.
Yet you support Trump and his GOP cronies.
Biden did not seem senile and addled with dementia.
It is almost as if jpp Deplorables were lying their fat asses and beer guts off!

Agreed. I'm not an expert, but Biden strikes me as someone who is an average 77 year old man in terms of brain function; another reason why I think both he and Trump are too old for the job. Additionally Trump seems to have mental issues.

Your saying that Trump is early Dementia proves you know very little about Dementia. You just shot yourself in the foot.
I'm very familiar with sundowning. I had a window installed in a thoracic ICU I once worked at because the lack of a 24hr cycle in the no windowed ICU made the patients hallucinate worse. They still had issues at night but overall they were better with a daylight cycle.
And early dementia patient can in fact have good days and bad days. Now the later stages of dementia can't do good for long periods of time. Biden is clearly in the earliest stages of dementia. You having worked in a dementia unit probably did not see many early dementia patients. Remember Ronald Reagan he was clearly in the early stages of dementia his last year or so of the Presidency but he was able to get by but he rapidly declined from that point.
They're both too old. I was really hoping this time that someone younger would have gotten the nomination.
Now, off to read the #COVID45 has COVID posts.... muhahahahaha.![]()
Biden was a testament to the power of strong pharmaceuticals.
Nah you just don’t know what you are talking about as usualYou're wrong, but that's nothing new.
Would Methylphenidate aka Ritalin be an appropriate treatment?
We now know Biden does not have dementia.
