I wonder why that is. Possibly because with all the other stuff it is word against word and possibly 'fake news'. With cognitive decline the evidence is there for all of us to evaluate personally. So if you call him a draft-dodger they know that that's just fake news made up by the liberal media. But if you point out that he's not all there, they're on the hook for not seeing it. And much like the emperor and his lack of wardrobe, it is pretty damn apparent no matter how much someone want to ignore it.

As for sleepy Joe, it would certainly seem that the republicans of today and their what-aboutism have completely given up on the concept of two wrongs not making a right. Beyond that, I'd have to ask, is the Republican bench so void of quality candidates that the cognitively impaired candidate is still their best chance against another cognitively impaired candidate?

All that said, I don't think Biden's anywhere near as impaired as Trump, but I can see the issue being a potential struggle against a younger (not Trump) candidate.
