The public polling kept showing that people thought Biden was too old to be president again. The pundits - idiots that they are - kept trying to understand why the public felt that way. Some pundits wondered what Biden could do to change that perception. Dem pundit hacks tried pooh-pooh it away and acted like voters could be patted on the head like children and they'd fall in line.

This went on for years when the reality was staring them in the face. The fucker's too old and the public knows it.

people with dementia using anger to mask when they're confused.

I think a single dementia-related raging out of control moment in front of the media when cameras are rolling could destroy his campaign that very day.

Somehow during his presidency Biden hasn't lost his temper in public that often. And if he has - they spun it as "of course the president was angry about X - wouldn't you be?" But as his presidency has gone on - he has had more days were he looks and sounds like death warmed over. I don't know how many Americans know what sundowning is but all you needed is eyes and ears to see how much of train wreck Biden was at that debate and all you need to do is watch a random ~5m or so to get the gist of the whole thing.
