An assertion shared by virtually everyone who has eyes to see. Not a shocker you wear glasses, then. No need for glasses there - it's glaringly obvious even to the blind that Biden's more than past it. It borders on cruelty to regularly expose an obviously demented old man to ridicule in public even though most media outlets are doing their best to protect him. |

I think that Biden having a stammer and sometimes being not necessarily exceptionally articulate is sometimes interpreted as evidence of dementia or confusion, and it is not “obvious” to think otherwise. |

"obviously demented" - really? I have heard plenty of speeches etc. from him which made perfect sense. He may be past it, but demented?

80 year olds can be vague and in mental decline without having dementia per se. That's my best guess of where Biden is.

This man isn't fit to lead any country.

Unlike his most recent opponent, Biden can read, write and count. |

It borders on cruelty to regularly expose an obviously demented old man to ridicule in public even though most media outlets are doing their best to protect him. Are you certain you’ve the right prescription? It seems pretty obvious to anyone who isn’t a troll, or consumes a media diet solely of partisan slop, that Biden does not have dementia. You can oppose him with all the vigour and vitriol you can muster, it’s your right as it is anyone else’s. But casting him as demented just makes you look pathetic. Perhaps that’s what you’re going for. |

The more important point is that you have Ron Klain, Jen O'Malley Dillon and the rest of the crew effectively operating with the powers of the presidency despite never having so much as run for public office at the lowest levels. |

And then you back up my own argument by using a well-known pro-Russia rag, the Hindustani Times. How exactly is the Hindustan Times pro Russian or for that matter a rag? It’s one of the oldest English newspapers in India and was set up as a nationalist voice in colonial times. It’s still run by one of the oldest business families in the country and its editors are among India’s most respected. Its business paper has a long standing collaboration with WSJ. Would expect you to stop making orientalist commentary on stuff you know nothing about. And it’s the Hindustan Times; not the Hindustani times. |

The US threads are overflowing again. Might someone dig some trenches to contain them ?

I wouldn’t even mind a separate sub-section for US. I open the international sections in the hope of something in some of the other jurisdictions to only see the same old US stuff.

They won't because they are a disorganised rabble who are essentially badly behaved hicks rather than a genuine attempt to overthrow a government. They should be locked up alongside Lula. It's grim for Brazil that the best that they could bring up for the last election were Bolsonaro and Lula. Nutter versus crook. Admittedly not the worst of either type to have run for the presidency before. To bring this thread back on topic as much as anything  Well you aren't *totally* wrong tbf (the Brazilian left would have hoped for better than a 77 year old with a previous criminal record) but this is still a bit "both-sidesy" (that term again) isn't it? Lula's conviction is widely seen as politically motivated, and to the extent corruption allegations about him are valid it is arguably as much a comment on its pervasiveness in Brazil as a whole. Whereas as far as Bolsonaro is concerned, where to start? I would certainly be interested in who you see as being worse than him in the past - indeed there is a case that his stance on the Amazon rain forests made him the most dangerous individual in the world (even more so than Putin) |
