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.

illness could affect both Biden and Trump that way.
