Trump's 'slurred speech and gross, repeated errors' show his cognitive decline is 'MORE apparent' than Biden's, UBC professor claims, in frightening assessment of presidential front runners

Donald Trump's cognitive decline is 'more apparent' than Joe Biden's with 'slurred speech and gross, repeated errors' but both are concerning, a professor has warned.

Politics professor Paul Quirk from the University of British Columbia assessed both the presidential front runners' cognitive functioning - after a series of gaffes raised questions about their fitness to hold office.

He told Newsweek that 77-year-old Trump's cognitive deterioration is more obvious, but Biden's 'cognitive failure' could result in him refusing to relinquish control if needed during his second term.

Both candidates have come under fire for mental slip-ups in recent weeks - Trump confused Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi, while a damning report described Biden, 81, as an 'elderly man with a limited memory.'

Quirk said: 'From the standpoint of the campaign, Biden's age should be less of an issue than Trump's more apparent cognitive decline - displayed in slurred speech and gross, repeated errors in one campaign rally after another.'

Although Trump's decline is more obvious, Quirk said, Biden's is equally worrying: 'The legitimate concern about Biden's age is that by the end of a second term, he would be almost five years older than he is now.

'There is obvious potential for serious cognitive failure by then.

'And if it occurred, the real danger is that Biden would fail to recognize it, and refuse to let his vice president take over.'

Trump's decline more obvious? I don't know where people have been since Joe took office but his decline has been obvious since day one and has grossly worsened.

IMO from watching his rally in MI for a brief time, he appears just worn out. He's in court during the day and campaigning at night. He's been through an incredible amount of stress for years, and is under continuous pressure. My concern is that he'll either have a heart attack or stroke, he is not a young man. I also notice that he's lost a good deal of weight; whether or not it's intentional, is obviously unknown.

One thing that I am pretty confident of, is that his family, especially Don Jr., and Eric would approach him and encourage him to stop.  Melania I believe would do so as well. Doubtful that he'd listen, but in contrast Jill is having fun playing FLOTUS at the expense of her demented evil husband.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Wow!  Thanks for sharing.  While he is on stage his cognitive decline is being seen by the world.

Our members of Congress continue to let him wander, stammer and show how weak and vulnerable the U.S. is.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
Well I'm sold, when a liberal professor of politics makes such a reasoned medical/mental evaluation how can you not take it seriously :shrug: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly: Not the biggest fan of Trump...that being said there is absolutely no way you can look at him and Biden and not see that Biden is all but brain dead in comparison to Trump, also Trump has been under constant attack and high pressure for years from democrats while the biggest pressure on Biden is choosing what flavor ice cream, how many days he will be on vacation and whether he will get to the toilet on time.
