I'm not a physician, but a 20+ year health care provider. I've seen and worked with many of our elderly with various stages of dementia and I think she fits the diagnosis. Have you seen her speak lately? Like I said, I don't hate her. I try not to let myself hate anyone. I don't view her as a threat coming from a conservative point of view either. But, by me calling her demented, I've been judged as a deplorable or knuckle dragger?
yes. i have seen her speak lately. i also am not a doctor. there is absolutely no evidence she has dementia. susan collins also does not have dementia. have you heard her speak lately? she has spasmodic dysphonia.
can i make a guess, that you're either reading or listening to others who've said that they think she has dementia? so i just googled "nancy pelosi dementia", and what i found is:
from newstarget.com: Some of the Democratic Party’s Marxist stalwarts are getting up there in age and it’s finally beginning to show: In public appearances they are having an increasingly difficult time enunciating their words, remembering key facts and clearly conveying their hatred for [Trump]. Enter House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California. [and so on...]
and i see pages, and pages, of the same. i encourage you to google those 3 words, and see the obvious talking point.
you're teaching me here what's going on in the dark right wing conspiracy web. which i didn't know. thank you for the education. but to the point, and my gentle advice: stop reading this, unless you want to just continue to be infected by wild and base falsehoods designed to teach you to identify your opponent, to hate your opponent, indeed, to hate your opponent so much that anything is better than him or her. and i hope you understand there's big money behind this.
when you ask me whether i've listened to pelosi lately, have you? and i don't mean testing to see if you can find an aha moment in her speech patterns. have you listened to what she has said? and have you found anything like the hate speech that rivals what you're obviously reading? because, if not, then i encourage you to disagree with her. to vote against those who align themselves with her. but to do so on the basis of the words she says, not the hate you read.
