    It sure is. It’s probably gotten worse with age. Stress also triggers stutters. Knowing he’s under intense scrutiny from all sides on every word he speaks in public probably makes it worse. Especially after a lifetime of dealing with pudding brains associating a speech delay with failing mental acuity.

      As you say, a stutter makes getting the words out difficult. It doesn’t make you mix up world leaders.

      Stutter and aphasia are two completely separate phenomena in the brain. Biden isn’t stuttering; he is mixing up names of people and can’t remember their names. Mixing up Trump vs Kamala, Putin vs Zelensky (with Z literally standing next to him!!) - that’s not a stutter.
