    You can be pretty senile and still know not to say some things even then when you’re still as able to operate as independently as he is. I know this from my own father who had dementia.

    But honestly, I don’t care whether or not he is really senile. This is politics. All I care about is that people think he’s senile.

      He’s been not saying the n word in public for decades now. It’s probably ingrained into him at this point whether senile or not
