The working class vote to the Reps? Heck, do they realize that MOST hispanics work and don't go around protesting? Even in 80% EP, Tx, I don't know any Hispanic that doesn't work. If they're not working it's because they are being held back from working and yet these people will vote for the Senile Old Sniffer. Dumb as rocks, my people, politically that is. It's the brainwashing from their parents and their failure to believe their eyes and ears to the facts, they only believe the crap the MSM feeds them. I even have them in my family and even those who profess to be Christians. *sigh*
Quote:Uhm, that's not truthful. Biden exceeded all expectations by "READING" coherently for 20 minutes. Which of course required nothing but minimal recognition thought processes.
Face it. You and a dozen other posters on this board have been force-feeding a BS narrative that he's one foot in the door to needing hospice care for advanced dementia. It was and is complete and utter bull ****. Nauseatingly partisan. As bad as those on the left saying Trump has syphilis brain.
"But I know someone with dementia! And he acts just like them!" YEAH SURE OKAY.
Oh look Joe plagiarized again...
Quote:In a now-deleted tweet, Trans activist Sophia Banks wrote, "Jack Layton is trending. One of Canada’s most beloved politicians. As Biden butchers his dying words left to us"
Sandy Hudson, a Black Lives Matter activist, added "So very very Jack Layton."
Comedian Mark Critch tweeted "Joe Biden lifts some Jack Layton. The last time an American copied a Canadian this obviously was when Lenny Kravitz covered the Guess Who"
Twitter user @RodneyTory wrote, "Joe Biden will plagiarize Jack Layton's speeches but not Jack Layton's policy. We have health care in Canada, thanks to the NDP's Tommy Douglas, the father of Jack Layton's party!"
While the phrases used by Layton and Biden are similar, it could be that Biden was merely paying homage to the late former head of Canada's New Democratic Party, or it could be chalked up to a case of similar platitudes as opposed to plagiarism.
Biden, however is no stranger to plagiarism scandal. Biden was forced to end his 1988 presidential bid after he was busted lifting from British politician Neil Kinnock.
Kinnock's speech: "Why am I the first Kinnock in a thousand generations to be able to get to university? Why is Glenys (his wife) the first woman in her family in a thousand generations to be able to get to university? Was it because all our predecessors were thick?"
Biden's speech: "I started thinking as I was coming over here, why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go to a university? Why is it that my wife who is sitting out there in the audience is the first in her family to ever go to college? Is it because our fathers and mothers were not bright?"
However, Jonathan Bradley of the National Post points out that "the sentiments Layton made also channel lines from a speech former prime minister Wilfrid Laurier gave in 1916."
Laurier's speech: "Let me tell you that for the solution of these problems you have a safe guide, an unfailing light if you remember that faith is better than doubt and love is better than hate."
If someone argues that reading from a teleprompter for 20 minutes, especially after all the mental miscues of the last year, somehow proves that one doesn't have dementia, well, all I can say is you don't understand dementia at all.
And personally, I don't give a crap whether Biden has dementia, or not. I just think it's a ridiculous argument.

They can be perfectly lucid for a day or days and then lapse. Sometimes they can sound perfectly lucid, but if you know them, you know they are talking about something that was true 20 years ago and not true at all today.

ding ding ding! Typically people don't go from fine to senile overnight - it's a process and it's not 100% perfectly linear. There are good days and there are bad days, but the ratio will continue to weigh more heavily towards the latter. Congrats to Joe on having a "good" day by his standards mentally. I've seen too much of the bad day stuff to think he can keep it up on anything approaching a regular basis.
Quote:During Joe Biden's presidential nomination acceptance speech Thursday night, both his personal YouTube page and the Democratic Party's YouTube page saw strong, negative reactions from live audiences. In fact, "Dislikes" outnumbered "Likes," in real time.
Yet both pages' "Dislikes" mysteriously dropped in the hours after the Democratic National Convention (DNC) had concluded. The changing statistics led some on social media to wonder if the Google-owned YouTube platform was protecting Biden.
There were many more "Dislikes" than "Likes" on DNC proceedings Thursday, but many of those "Dislikes" later disappeared, and the ratio shifted in the other direction. Monday's DNC proceedings, however, on Friday evening had more "Dislikes" than "Likes," though the ratio had tightened.
Just the News observed the drop in "Dislikes" in real time between Thursday evening and mid-day Friday, a trend observed by additional YouTube users as well.
A video posted by YouTube user "nina e" illustrated screen shots of the number of '"Dislikes" for the 2020 Democratic National Convention Livestream dropping.
"After seeing many dislikes disappearing on videos of the DNC Conventions, i [sic] decided to do a screen record to document the censorship in favour of Joe Biden. On this video you can see me refreshing/reopening the page of the video of the 4th DNC Convention , the dislike were 5,9k, and when I reopened the page, 2,1k dislikes magically disappeared??♀️ while likes even increased...later on, the erasing grew bigger but i didn't document it. It is unknown if dislikes are being frozen by continuously erasing them as they appear.
"This is CENSORSHIP to hide Joe Biden's unpopularity, in order to motivate people to vote for him and suppress Trump voters."

True dementia the sufferer can pass in and out of lucidity. The more stressed the sufferer is, the more often the outs become. Biden is going to get worse.
