Your responses are as predictable as a sunrise but far less illuminating.

Still, they are illuminating.

Finally you have recognised the light, even if you only see a few protons.

I think there is heaps of evidence. His mental health has long been subject to question as a consequence of his erratic behaviour but since his C19 diagnosis, it has got much worse. Surely you can see that?

I think it's unnecessary politically as Biden appears to now have a clear road to victory, so the only justification has to be the simple one. That people are really in fear of what this man might do. As McConnell appears to be breaking ranks maybe we are now in the end game for Trump.

Really, I am not aware of it. He has just spent several days in the care of doctors why have they not said anything if it it so obvious they would be failing in their duties and would almost certainly be disbarred if you are correct.

Trump says things for affect that doesn't mean he is medically unfit to run the country.

The Democrats are clearly playing a political game which I think will back fire on them. I suspect the uncommitted silent majority will just roll their eyes at such as obvious political ploy and wish they had 2 better candidates.

You believe it because you hate Trump but this is not about whether he is a good or bad President but whether he is medically unfit to carry on. At some point Nancy Pelosi will have to produce proof which I very much doubt she has.

Isn't it satisfying when you read something that has the aroma of self-evident truth wafting from every sentence?

When you know, in your heart of hearts, that whilst others may try to tear it apart that even the most vociferous will privately have to acknowledge the truth it holds.

Such is this piece from James Carville, a highly experienced and well respected political strategist and election expert. That it happens to match my own opinion is re-assuring:-

And Biden’s mental health is not open to questioning? How very predictable you are

Trump is unstable his rantings show it, and his medication will affect his judgement, such as it is..

Either of the candidates should be subject to medical assessment, it should be kept under review during office.

We should have that here as well.

An independent medical panel, commission would be an added protection for society.

Fair point although I suspect it would be politicised like everything else now days.

If Pelosi seriously had evidence that Trump is medically unfit for office then she is going about it the wrong way. She should quietly have asked the Republication leadership for a private meeting and presented the evidence. She should then have said this is above party politics our nation is at risk and offer to help them replace Trump with the minimum of fuss and not make this party political.

If the Republicans refused then she would be entitled to do what she is doing now.

Apart from the odd poster on here most people can see this for what it is political games so much for the they go low we go high.

"Independent" like all the other institutions right?

I find it hard to fathom that where a two horse race exists between Biden and Trump it's Trumps mental state that's being questioned in the media.

Tells you as much as you need to know.

Nah, in your case the sun is always behind a thick, gloomy cloud. It's permanent intellectual darkness in your area. I know. I have lived there.

More light escapes from black holes than wisdom does from the Fens.

It's not just recently but for a considerable time that Trump's mental capacity has been questioned. Don't you recall a significant group of mental health experts suggesting he undergo an assessment? His own doctor is not a specialist and appears to be rather dominated by him. Which is hardly unusual. Those who challenge him get replaced pdq.

Trump says things for affect that doesn't mean he is medically unfit to run the country.

The Democrats are clearly playing a political game which I think will back fire on them. I suspect the uncommitted silent majority will just roll their eyes at such as obvious political ploy and wish they had 2 better candidates.

We will see. I think that assessment is completely wrong.

You believe it because you hate Trump but this is not about whether he is a good or bad President but whether he is medically unfit to carry on. At some point Nancy Pelosi will have to produce proof which I very much doubt she has.

That it's political is undoubtedly true and it won't go anywhere without an examination, which Trump won't agree to. So the only way would be if the GOP decides he represents a clear and present danger. Unlikely, but don't rule it out. They know they are going to lose the WH and may now be looking for some credibility to save some Senators.

How do you know he was "rewarded"?

Is it just possible he was the best candidate for the job?

Many people endorsed Obama. Unsurprisingly.

Totally agree but would any panel be totally independent? I have my doubtd
