I know we’re all shocked that the corporate media, which spent so much time speculating on Biden’s supposed cognitive decline, is silent on this matter.

No! I refuse to accept mental decline as an excuse.

He was a dumb racist fuck 40 years ago, before any of the decline began. He remains a dumb racist fuck today. He’s just stupider now.

I’m pretty sure my brain is also on a 40 year downward spiral. I think I peaked at 17.

Argh! Donnie may have been commander-in-chief, but he was still a civilian. (The thought of Trump being subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice does make me smile.)

I know it’s a bit muddled in the US due to the militia origins of police forces (and militarization).

Downward Spiral, they say?

Well, he probably has been on a downward spiral since his return to civilian life.

Wasn’t he in a military school?

But still under civilian law and authority. Unless he enlisted or was commissioned, still a civilian. Citizen Bone Spurs.

Hey, don’t mock his bone spurs. He has X-rays!

They’re not making excuses for him, they’re just analyzing how he gets his bullshit across. It’s not either/or. He was an asshole in 1984 with a sharp mind; now he’s an asshole with a declining mind. We knew this. Time will do that to you.

I mean, I’m not sure where curing his mind deviates from the sending him to hell narrative, but there are some Aaranofskys still around, or I could see him having epiphanies about how labor groups and old buildings should improve together even if he’s not the MC in the story.

That, and I still have my pet theory that he had a mild stroke while in office. Or Long COVID. (or both.)

Is the usual penalty for treason still apply from that? /snark

So will a poor diet, lack of exercise both mental and physical, and the probable abuse of prescription drugs.
