71. Alzheimer's in particular can progress at varying speeds
Mon Jun 22, 2026, 02:35 PM
4 hrs ago

His condition was not rapid like Trump’s is.

The reason it’s a subject of interest is that it’s the ultimate rate-limiting thing that will end this cult once and for all. They will find other people to glom onto, but he or she will not have the staying power coupled with the arrogance, narcissism, and plain stupidity of this guy.
