@AbolishtheFed Add that to "I’m not supposed to take any questions but go ahead".Who said he wasn't supposed to? Isn't he the President?www.foxnews.com/...

Lin Wood says that the planes that hit the twin towers and the Pentagon on 9/11 were fake CGI.How does a dumbass like this become a lawyer?
Rudy would fit right in with the rightwingers here: www.msn.com/... You might reach out and invite him to 'join our conversation'.
@AbolishtheFed I Don’t need to watch a senile geriatric patient, in a suit, read from a teleprompter.People like @DoubleD44 are happier with their head in the sand and cannot bring themselves to criticize what they voted for, only who they voted against.
The loser just can't help himself from using the wrong prop: www.msn.com/... Oh, but did you see that he no longer has any use for Sidney Powell; damaged goods: www.msn.com/...
@Henry Miles We all know that you spend a lot of time criticizing who you voted against; do you have any criticism of what you voted for or are your glasses too deep of a rose 🌹 color?Asking for a freind.
@Divi-It-Up Yes, but I always always give them a chance as I did your failed idol. (You might consider employing a little more creativity in your snarky remarks.)
@Henry Miles I will take being a little snarky over being presumptuous.
When a brain is affected by dementia it has diminished capabilities to process information. A person with dementia is likely to be overwhelmed by everyday activities, things that prior to the onset of dementia may have even been pleasurable. A luncheon with friends and family, replacing the gas tank on the barbeque,
baking a German-chocolate cake, packing for a weekend outing, using a list to shop for groceries at the supermarket: all kinds of activities, even ones considered routine before dementia, may be stressful and frustrating now.In addition to the increased sense of frustration generated by daily activities, there is also a decrease in resilience for long hours spent awake. A brain affected by dementia gets tired earlier and processing information becomes even more challenging at the end of the day. Many people show signs of sundowning as a result.You will never hear a person with dementia say “I’m getting a little frustrated so I’m going for a little walk on the beach to clear my mind.” This does not happen. Instead, when frustrated, a person with dementia may get angry, agitated,
or cry, or pace around the home and rummage through drawers and cabinets.________________________________________________________________Think of all the times that Biden avoids taking questions from the media. Think of all the times he cannot stay "on message" and instead tells the media that "they (not sure who they are) will be angry with him for taking questions. Think about how Biden snaps at people who challenge him. Remember Biden getting into an argument on the campaign trail with a voter who asked about Hunter and the Ukraine?www.npr.org/...How about when Biden told an autoworker that "he was full of shit?"www.cnbc.com/...How about all the times he got angry with people who questioned him and suggested that they vote for someone else? Rather than answer the questions?www.theguardian.com/...Biden cannot remain focused. He gets angry easily. He likes to go to bed early and does not deal well with stress or frustration. It is becoming more clear, every day, that Uncle Joe is only half the man he used to be. And that wasn't a complete half when he was in his prime. Now, he's barely a shell of his former self.

@David Crosetti Im sorry to hear you have Dementia as you repeat the same thing over and over
Have you ever noticed how much Joe Biden loves ice cream? He goes out of his way to eat it and his staff always makes sure that ice cream is available to him.Have you ever wondered why?Well, it turns out that ice cream is therapy for those with dementia. Who would have thought that?Yes, ice cream. It takes all of your worries away. It is soothing and delicious, and
personable: everyone has a favorite flavor! Ice cream brings people with dementia to happier, warmer times when the treat was shared with friends and loved ones at special, joyous occasions. Ice cream has the power to immediately elicit soothing feelings at the very first taste of a single spoon-full. It erases all the negative feelings related to the frustration and continues to stimulate pleasure receptors in the brain with every new scoop. And dementia (here is the best part!) allows one to fully enjoy the treat, with no concerns for calories, weight gain or dietary needs, completely guilt free! For people with dementia, ice cream is far more effective and safe than Prozac, or any other “happy” drug on the market!If you are caring for a loved one with dementia, find out what flavor is their absolute favorite and NEVER RUN OUT OF ICE CREAM! If you have dietary concerns, use brands that observe your dietary needs. There are plenty of diabetic friendly brands available. Ice cream can also be found in low fat, low cal, sugar free and lactose free varieties. Whatever kind or flavor you use,
always have plenty of it handy always. Ice cream is an essential part of your dementia care tool-kit, like a Swiss army knife that’s invaluable for many occasions. The holidays are here. With family and friends gathering for the celebrations, there may be an increased risk for dementia patients to become overwhelmed. Remember to stay calm, control
the environment, provide reassurance and, don’t forget, plenty of ice cream. www.alz.org/...________________________________________________________________More to follow on this interesting topic.
