I think Biden will only do one term. I don't even think he'll run again.

Exactly, it is a horrible horrible disease and I do not disparage anyone who has it, but one has to question those who are running for president, who think they're running for the Senate (again), but joined the Senate 180 years ago, likes to accept truth over facts, thinks those African Americans who vote Trump, ain't black.

Trump says really dumb things and with that, questions should focus around his intellect but he has never given the impression of cognitive decline, Joe Biden is showing those signs of cognitive decline, and given his age of 77, it is not at all surprising.

As of October 21, more than 3 million young people (ages 18-29) have already voted early or absentee in the 2020 elections, including more than 2 million in 14 key states that may well decide the presidency and control of the United States Senate.

It’s an entirely believable possibility that polls are not capturing an accurate picture of the electorate.

Agreed, but the numbers posted were those of young voters who have already voted, and it’s in vastly increased numbers from 2016.

He is confused again..

Joe Biden @JoeBiden 29 Minutes ago

If you live in:

Montana
Washington

Today is your last day to register to vote. After today, you can still same-day register in person when you vote early or on Election Day. Head to http://iwillvote.com to learn more.
Then it is not the last day to register then is it, if you can register after today?

Dear me Joe (Or your campaign staffer who tweeted this for you). :rolleyes:

A rather harsh assumption on your part, Mick.

Why is it?

People of all ages can get Dementia but it is more prevalent in the elderly, naturally.

You need to see your remark from the perspective of someone in that age bracket. Your remark (with a specific age) was purely gratuitous because the evidence lies in Biden's behaviour not his age.

But I doubt you'll back down.

What a state the US is getting into with those two candidates vying to be the world's most important leader for the next 4 years. It's almost worth plumping for Trump because you know what you'll get.

You're quite right, I will not back down because I am not wrong, Here is Alzheimer's UK feelings on the age range of people that does get Dementia.

Quote:

Dementia mainly affects people over the age of 65 (one in 14 people in this age group have dementia), and the likelihood of developing dementia increases significantly with age. However, dementia can affect younger people too.
Nothing gratuitous about it, the facts are there, I was not trying to be prejudice about it. I also said young people get it too.

Bingo, before Covid - the U.S Economy was booming under Trump. Sleepy Joe and the Democrats wants to shut down everything because of the Covid threat. Look at it today, 8 days before the election and he has absolutely no campaign events running by himself, he may have campaign surrogates running about for him, his VP pick running here and there but the man himself, who is running for president, is at home, 8 days before the election.

His campaign seems to have decided - rightfully IMO - that Biden does better the more the focus is on Trump.

We don't know what the results will be yet and it may prove that polling is catastrophically wrong, much more than 2016, or something may happen in the coming days to adjust the race.

But if Trump loses he is going to have to take a lot of the blame himself. Biden was not a great candidate but Trump's bombastic and unfocused approach to public statements, Twitter and even his first debate has harmed him. He won 2016 narrowly so needed to spend the last four years building his support whereas I think he set about losing some of it.

Of course that might be wrong and underneath the polls there was been support from elsewhere growing. We'll find out next week.
