Harris: Reluctance to pressure Biden out of 2024 was 'recklessness'

20. The problem is people with a mental decline often do not recognize their own deminshied capabilities.

I was the POA for both of my parents in their last years as they went from living independently to going to assisted living and nursing homes and their final passing.

My mother was very smart, played piano for the church and read literally thousands of those romance novels. When she started forgetting to pay bills and other lapses we tried to get her doctor to help. He asked those stupid questions like who is presided and all it did was piss her off and make her mad we were insulting her intelligence. I am not sure she ever recognized her mental decline even though she stopped reading and playing the piano. For her she just did not 'feel like it'.

My impression was something similar happened with Joe Biden. I don't think this cognitive ability was gone, just sort of slowed down. He could still make the decisions he needed to in the job, it just took longer to process. But, I don't think there was any way he could have made it another four years. What did it for me is watching him make the baby step walking and just not the basic physical agility he had had just a year or two before. He and I think close staff just would not recognize this reality and it was not until he was put into the ring with Trump's endless stream of bullshit that he was just not agile enough to handle it was irrefutable.

I think that Trump's decline is much much worse that anything we have seen with Biden. His endless bullshit mimics some sort of smarts, but it is nearly entirely just moronic nonsense. But this is useful for creeps like Steven Miller to shape into their policies. Him joining Ivana on the 19th hole can't come soon enough.
