I'm not talking about the quality of Biden's presidency or his character which are the opposite of Trump. Biden is losing his speaking ability, a skill which is necessary to stay in politics especially at election time.
Trump on the other hand is going into dementia which is much more dangerous, will exaggerate his already dangerous malignant narcissism.

My point is that Bernie has neither problem. No, I'm not suggesting he should run for president again.

My Dad was losing his speaking ability for years and that does not negate the power of his whole amazing career or his basic decency right up to the end. So please stop conflating obvious observations about speaking skills late in life with a man's life accomplishments.
