And, apparently, unless Donald Trump has it in for you.

Remember his cruel, vicious jabs at Joe Biden? Not just the blatantly untrue ones about having “stolen” the 2020 election . . . but, even more inexcusable, the personal ones: calling him “Sleepy Joe,” and “cognitively impaired,” and — most horribly — a “decrepit corpse” that had been used as a “frontman” during his term as president.

Yes, Joe Biden had physical conditions consistent with aging: arthritis, GERD (reflux), and non-valvular atrial fibrillation (A-Fib). (Hell, I have all three of those, and with proper medication, I’m just fine, thank you.)

But Biden was completely up-front about his medical conditions, sharing the results of his regular physicals with the American public. He never claimed — as Trump does — to be “the healthiest president this nation has ever seen.” [Ali Velshi, MSNBC, September 8, 2025.]

Instead, the cadre of sycophants surrounding Trump — including his own physician — offer only the most opaque, glowing comments, saying that his lab results are “astonishingly excellent” and “his physical strength and stamina is [sic] extraordinary.” [Id.]

And when questioned about his appearance — the huge bruises that appear sporadically on his hands, his swollen ankles, the excess of facial makeup, or his bent posture and hesitant gait — they make excuses. There is no transparency, and no admission that at 79 — just three years younger than Joe Biden — Trump is understandably not as healthy or as vital as he was just a few years ago.

It’s not only heel spurs anymore. Take a look at these candid shots on the golf course and boarding Air Force One:

And listen to his garbled sentences when he’s not reading from a prepared speech or a teleprompter. He rambles, he wanders off-topic into the most absurd irrelevancies, he forgets names and mispronounces words.

I am not a physician or a psychiatrist. But I have eyes, ears, and a brain, and when I look at Donald Trump, I see a man in decline. How far that decline has progressed, I am not qualified to judge.

But someone should.

Just sayin’ . . .
