I don't care if he is physically frail I care that he is mentally not sharp. |
He seems plenty sharp, especially compared to the GOP’s candidate. |
He’s extremely physically frail. No American president has been so physically frail as Biden is. No world leader has been so physically frail as Biden is. Frailty is generalized weakness, exhaustion, slow gait, poor balance, decreased physical activity, cognitive impairment, and weight loss. There is no way Biden is mentally capable of being president. I don’t know how his falls on camera haven’t been more upsetting to people; he’s obviously struggling if he’s wearing sneakers daily, on camera, etc. No adult professional man wants to wear sneakers with a suit during his business day. |
To evaluate frailty, the model most widely used is frailty as a phenotype measurable by five biological criteria: unintentional weight loss of more than 4.5 kilograms or 5% of body weight in the past year; fatigue, or exhaustion while doing regular activities; low hand-grip strength, which can indicate muscular weakness; decreased gait velocity, also reported as slowness when walking 4.6 meters on a flat surface; and low physical activity in comparison with one year ago, indicating low rate of energy expenditure. Cross-sectional studies demonstrate the link between frailty and cognitive performance1 and longitudinal studies show the relationship between frailty and the emergence of cognitive changes, cognitive impairment and dementia. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5619349/ I can’t believe Democrats are running this man as their candidate. I can’t believe people see this and aren’t terrified this man is going to pass away or be seriously mentally or physically incapacitated from a catastrophic incident. People this old/frail are walking time bombs. |
Very few people will admit that a world leader wearing sneakers with his suit, repeatedly falling on camera, walking very slowly and unsteadily, and constantly having someone beside him to catch him in case he stumbles or falls is unusual. Why this is I do not know. It is scary and there is no chance Biden can actually meet the demands of the presidency. |
Very good! Your chocolate rations have been increased from 50 grams to 20 grams because you have been a model citizen! |
Why is walking a requirement? Fdr was in a wheelchair. |
Because Biden's brain is broken? |
Biden is the only option if you like democracy. Trump’s a big fat orange fascist. |
Maybe the solution is to not start the primary season 11 months before the election and seven months before the conventions, which only serve as a coronation of the primary “winner” and consist of nothing but pointless speeches to pump up the already converted. It’s even more pointless when the early front runners are crowned as the nominees right out of the gate.
How about having a real nominating convention closer to Election Day so the candidates can be evaluated and debated at about the time the voters will cast their ballots for them? A lot can change between January and November. |

Do you people have any good reasons TO vote for Biden, not reasons to vote against Trump? It's always "but Trump." What else you got? What does he really have to offer? How is Biden planning to make our lives better? |
Biden can makes our lives better by going away. He's a pariah. |
The saddest thing will be seeing Biden as a lame duck for two and a half months. If you think he looks feeble now, just wait for November. |
+1 That’s a great point. What is Biden going to do differently to make our lives better if he wins again? Biden hasn’t been telling us anything. He has been silent. I don’t think my personal situation defines America, but lots of people I know are not happy with the direction the country is headed. |
