He's thinking clearly. He's doing a good job and is accomplishing a lot, present tense.
It's all driving me nuts.
Humble Fan of Atty. Woohe could have Parkinsons but, if he wins the election and has to sstep down at some point, Kamala steps in to do the job. She'll have lots of help. What we cannot do is allow Russian, Chinese and N. Korean influence the election or the lying assed Repubs.
@BillMcGuire HE DOES NOT HAVE PARKINSON’S. THAT WAS REPORTED. STOP!

…and Parkinson’s ≠ death or drooling incapacity. I have known a several people with Parkinson’s who lived actively and productively for a decade or more with a sharp and insightful wit.
Wiley Miller@GottaLaff
This drives me insane, where I hear people say, "I heard he has Parkinson's!". That's what sticks in their brain and becomes almost impossible to remove, no matter how many facts you present proving he doesn't.

I heard Trump can't read. Many people said it.

Reading isn't Trump's problem, comprehension is.
he has difficulty for sure, remember in Vegas he couldn't read the teleprompter so he started babbling like the idiot he is.

Was that when he started talking about sharks vs electrocution? I mean, THAT is the great debate in his mind?

Classic example of the old adage:
"A lie travels around the globe while the truth is putting on its shoes."
Peter Baker knew exactly what he was doing. It's journalistic malpractice of the highest sort, but that's the way he operates. Falsehood, innuendo, misdirection and deniability are his tools of the trade.
one non-non-blondeWhich is why it's valuable to discredit, deplatform, ridicule, punish, and ostracize the fake news right wing media.
Only if listening to them becomes distasteful and cumbersome enough can the pace of their influence be slowed. we do not have time to debunk their 100 lies per minute, we have to debunk any notion that there is value in their existence itself.
The problem is liberals would rather "debate them in the marketplace of ideas" which is an accelerant for spreading their bullshit.

BrianAll of this misinformation relies on the toothpaste out of the tube policy. Easy to get out. Never going back in
sandywb14@Wileymiller @GottaLaff @BillMcGuire @Twitter_expat I live with a 70 year old with Parkinson’s. I know it manifests differently in people, but my guy can cognitively kick my ass every day. I would take Parkinson’s over racism every day. At least it’s manageable.
@Sandywb Yes, but again, irrelevant. He doesn’t have Parkinson’s. @Wileymiller @BillMcGuire @[email protected]
@Sandywb
That's the other thing that drives me crazy...Parkinson's doesn't effect one's intellectual capacity. My grandfather had it and lived with it for over 40 and was one of the earliest to receive Duopa when it was still experimental. Parkinson's effects motor skills, not cognition.
I know that. Some people think that the P word is off limits to discuss, and it might be the lessor of several other evils that could be affecting Biden.
rule 1 of journalism also is rule 1 of rhetoric: it's better to be first than correct.
no way around that, you just have to beat them at their own game.
Patsy@GottaLaff @BillMcGuire @Twitter_expat I was so disappointed to see Morning Joe gave one of the reporters behind that a platform this morning. Didn’t (couldn’t) watch the whole segment, but what little I did see did nothing to call him out on that BS story.

martin lentink 🇪🇺 🇺🇦📎@GottaLaff @BillMcGuire @[email protected] He's old. Maybe he can't walk straight, but that doesn't mean he can't *think* straight.
geesh, all the doctors with degrees are staying away from the subject, but you all keep piling on me..... okay. I can take it. See ya
