[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did Biden call the chairman of joint chiefs of staff "my commander in chief"?[/quote]

He is a lifelong stutterer, he spoke to that on C-SPAN all the way back in 1994 and he has been making those kinds of gaffes of saying one thing for another for his entire political career.  He corrected himself, indicating he isn't somehow in some delusional state of complete confusion where he was actually referring to "commander in chief" - and anyone who watched for the entire hour, seeing him deliver deep, detailed, nuanced, and extremely lucid answers on difficult policy questions would know that.

That's not how stuttering work. Stop spreading misinformation.[/quote]

Your medical knowledge is sorely lacking.  There are many types of stuttering and that is one of them.[/quote]

Can you explain how he avoided that 4 years ago? 16 years ago? Wouldn't he have been missing up names all that time if it was due to his stutter?

Because this wasn't an issue 4 years ago, or during his VP, people are right to be concerned about what has caused the change. The vacant stare, the stiff gait, the early bedtime give credence to it being a problem that has evolved. [/quote]

He has always done this. The difference is that the media decided to sabotage democracy by suddenly making this into a whole thing. [/quote]

+1.  Biden has been known for it for decades, it's not all that new.

Lots of people slip up mentally and swap their words.  During the press conference, the NPR reporter Asma Khalid accidentally said "the debate" when she meant "the press conference."

Trump does all the time too, he called Tim Cook "Tim Apple" and introduced Marilyn Hewson, CEO of Lockheed Martin as "Marilyn Lockheed" - he mixed up Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi, he said we captured the airports during the Revolutionary War, he called Orban "the leader of Turkey," he mixed up George Bush and Jeb Bush, and lots of other things.

If it's a "definite sign of dementia" to swap words like that, then Trump has dementia in spades.  There's no getting around that one if that's the argument you want to make.[/quote]

So both of you mean to tell us that Biden was routinely mixing up names and did so in all his debates in 2020 and not making sense. Because I don't recall that AT ALL. [/quote]
