Yes, and you can continue to improve from stroke related symptoms, age does not get better.

No but a cough drop and a glass of water helps you get better after a cold and dry mouth

A cold never makes someone ramble off and end a sentence nonsensically.

I'll vote for anyone over Trump, but Joe Biden is on the path to certain defeat and the only way to change course is to change candidate.

i've already commented this elsewhere but infections affect the elderly different. i'm not saying Joe was suffering from cold-induced delirium but it's not at all far fetched to say that. I worked in a nursing home and even the most sane of old people would go crazy when they'd get certain infections.

is Joe probably just getting old, maybe. I don't really keep up with him so i can't say. but these dudes are super old and illnesses will affect them differently than they affect us. especially if he is already declining — sickness would only make it worse.

It really is wild—my dad is 73 and hallucinates when he has a UTI.

[u/seasiren_666 → u/ladyphase]

it can be so scary for all parties involved. I walked in on many, otherwise, sane residents talking to themselves because of UTIs and other infections. it still scares me some of the things they would say and see.

[u/Kaprak → u/ladyphase]

This actually specifically happened to Chuck Grassley some years ago IIRC.

He had a UTI and it made him seem like he was going nuts. No he's just older than dirt and sick.

[u/Holycity → u/seasiren_666]

Sounds like he shouldn't be president to be honest then.

[u/seasiren_666 → u/Holycity]

I agree. elderly should not be running our country. they're susceptible to delirium.

[u/ilovecfb → u/seasiren_666]

This makes it worse, you see that right

If a cold can put him down like that, what’s the flu gonna do. This guy wants to be president til 86 guys. 86 years old

[u/seasiren_666 → u/ilovecfb]

per literally all of my other responses. I know. it wasn't supposed to make it better, it is just the truth. both Trump and Biden are too old to be in office. a UTI would take either of them out. Trump isn't immune to anything i'm saying here. i hate them both.

[u/seasiren_666 → u/[deleted]]

illness could affect both Biden and Trump that way.
