    Even Biden’s “no decision” is better than Trump’s decisions.

    However, decisions were made. Who made them? Doctor Jill?

    Even if it’s Dr. Jill or Kamala Harris or other White House staff or Biden’s advisors, the decisions are still better than Trump’s decisions.

    Biden attracts good, competent people; Trump repels them and attracts sycophants instead.

      I do think that while Presdient Biden is mentally unfit, there were handlers who kept him in the lane. I am not sure that handlers for President Trump will/would keep him in the lanes.

      On another note, are you looking for a president (or an administration) who will implement the policies you want, or are looking for a personality.

      For example, lets assume President Biden was incompetent and his handlers were making the decisions. But, if the decisions were basically the same regardless, does it really matter?

        You forgot the word "unelected".

        if the decisions were basically the same regardless, does it really matter?

        Yes. Hell yes. How do you know they were basically the same? You're going to trust them?

        Oh my giddy aunt.

            Of course not. However, I'm fairly confident that he will be aware of these actions.

            That's a hell of a lot more than we can say about the last 4 years.

              Dont disagree.

              However, if (and I know it is a pretty big hypothetic) President Trump (starts to) lose his mental abilities in the next four years, I would say that the odds are much less than 50% that the people in power will react any differently than the people today.

                    It's becoming apparent, that Biden's feebleness has been apparent to anyone close to him since he got elected. Not attending meetings, sleeping on the job, etc etc. And they hid it.

                    I am not in love with President-Elect Trump, but put any video of him in the last 5 months against any video of POTATUS in the last five months. Trust your eyes, not me.

                      Agreed.

                      But it doesn't fit her narrative during the campaign, that both Biden and Trump suffered from diminished mental capacities.

                            Free link.

                            Noonan: The President Who Wasn’t There

                            I end speculating on why the Biden White House and those close to them might have felt justified in misleading the public about the president’s true state. It isn’t only “Trump,” and “Biden’s the only one who can unite the party and beat him.” It was Ronald Reagan. It is Democratic Party gospel, their deep belief, that Reagan while president, certainly in the last years of his presidency, was neurologically damaged, that his Alzheimer’s had already begun, that he was an old man of 77 who was barely there.

                            Here I ask those reading online to hit on this link to Reagan’s last news conference as president. For those not online, it’s available at the Reagan Library site. Watch it.

                            That news conference took place on Dec. 8, 1988, six weeks before he left office. It was live, in prime time, wide-ranging, and covered the world. Compare it with what you have seen of Mr. Biden the past few years.

                            It took her only 4 years to discover this? If Ms. Noonan has written an earlier column questioning Biden's mental acuity, I must have missed it.

                              It's a ceremonial position where on any given day, it could be of extraordinary importance. But 99% of the days, the president can hide, and he has the management infrastructure to do so.

                              Education is extremely important.

                                Noonan: The President Who Wasn’t There

                                I end speculating on why the Biden White House and those close to them might have felt justified in misleading the public about the president’s true state. It isn’t only “Trump,” and “Biden’s the only one who can unite the party and beat him.” It was Ronald Reagan. It is Democratic Party gospel, their deep belief, that Reagan while president, certainly in the last years of his presidency, was neurologically damaged, that his Alzheimer’s had already begun, that he was an old man of 77 who was barely there.

                                Here I ask those reading online to hit on this link to Reagan’s last news conference as president. For those not online, it’s available at the Reagan Library site. Watch it.

                                That news conference took place on Dec. 8, 1988, six weeks before he left office. It was live, in prime time, wide-ranging, and covered the world. Compare it with what you have seen of Mr. Biden the past few years.

                                It took her only 4 years to discover this? If Ms. Noonan has written an earlier column questioning Biden's mental acuity, I must have missed it.

                                  Interesting that Mrs Wilson in her book says it was Wilson’s neurologist who convinced her he could recover and shouldn’t resign and that she could just help communicate his views.

                                  I looked it up, the good doctor died 8 years before she published her book.

                                    Rasmussen (which admittedly leans right) said recently that the trust level for legacy media has fallen to a new low, with less than 1/3 of Americans trusting the MSM.

                                      I’m waiting for the tell-all book with the juicy details. Probably by someone named ‘anonymous’.

                                          The guy who wrote the treasonous book during Trump's first term moved from a white house position paying maybe 100k a year, directly to Google, where he served some government liaison position compensated at several million per year.

                                          I wonder what exactly Google believes they purchased for that salary. What value does a government bureaucrat provide to a business like Google?

                                          Education is extremely important.
