It’s definitely one of the 3.
There's no question AT ALL about who is and has been the worst president EVER. Biden deserves that honor hands down. Even as divisive as Oblunder was he isn't even half as bad as Ol' Foggy has been. He's the equivalent of the earthquake that hit San Francisco, devastating.
It's sad thought that people still think he's been good and I place that on the shoulders of his handlers who lie and lie about him, the media.

He entered hospice 15 months ago? That has to be some kind of weird record.

No kidding, hospice is supposed to be pretty much EOL care, or so I thought.

There is more than one kind of hospice service. My mother in law was in hospice care for more than 6 months for just baths, feedings, and help with a catheter. When she experienced a true downturn in her condition she was placed in the kind of hospice care most of you are thinking about, palliative care, which is end of life management.
The mission of hospice has expanded and not all hospice cases are expected to end in the death of the patient. Hospice now provides extremely good intermediate care which covers what assisted living will not.

They call it hospice, but it's really more an extension of assisted living nursing homes. Too well to die, but too sick to be without constant help.

You are correct, as usual. I had forgotten that term. I should have remembered it from my mothers own care at the end.
