Now that Biden dropped out, Trump is going to be the oldest presidential candidate to run. Are we sure he's fit to run? Is his brain declining? Does he have dementia or Alzheimer's?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

She should take a woman as VP!
That’s… not a terribly pragmatic idea. These days, it’s a good idea to pick a running mate whose strengths balance out or cover for the ticket leader’s weaknesses (real or perceived). Here, that means an uncontroversial white dude, because America is unfortunately still quite racist and sexist.
Have we checked to make sure she's not a Supe yet?
At this point does it matter? I think not!
god butcher is such a heck
What's a heck? I've only ever seen it used to mean hell.
idk i was using it instead of fuck
Ah, fair enough. He is, yeah. Putting it mildly, even
I would have preferred if her first statement was about stomping out fascism and restoring and cementing abortion rights, rather than "winning and earning the nomination"...
That said: big q for me is who she'll pick as vp!
Sit them all down in a room, ask "who here has been to space?" and pick Mark Kelly.
Any D 2024. Fuck the republican traitor filth.
Rotting Bloated Corpse (D) for president!
Please, no Reagan.

She was always my first choice in 2016. She is not afraid of confronting trump or any other authoritarians around the world.
She was always my first choice in 2016
Statistically there had to be some...
But Kamala was the weakest in the 2020 primary.
She's better than Joe, but she's not popular. And her numbers reflect that
Hell, unless you had a typo I legit don't even remember her running in 2016
I mean, if it's gonna happen - she's gonna be the best bet. She has funding from the same campaign, and at least she's not going around claiming that trees randomly explode.
I'll be happier to vote for her than I would have been voting for Biden.
What if you have to choose between an electric boat and an exploding tree?
Call in the sharks.
My sincere best wishes to her
