Disgusting MSNBC Republicans: Reagan Definitely Had Alzheimer’s While President

the damage from Alzheimer’s can start years before anyone one notices the los of cognitive function. I personally think that the last 1-2 years of Regan’s Presidency there was a noticeable impact on him intellectually but that being said he was intellectually functioning better then most politicians on capital hill. it is sad to me that Regan will always have Liberals pouncing on this to claim he was not Great president.

That is wrong. The physical changes in the brain that lead to dementia can begin as much as 20 years before symptoms manifest. But there is zero cognitive impairment prior to some symptoms showing. Cognitive loss can be measured with testing before there is anything significant that you could see. If Reagan had noticeable symptoms in ‘86 he would have been dead by ‘96 not 2004.

Agreed on all accounts.

And it isn’t fair to negate all interactions of someone living their life before or even during the very early stages. Everyone deserves dignity. It’s a slow progression.

My mom is like a three year old who believes she is an adult. Dangerous. Luckily she isn’t very agile and doesn’t want to get up much.

And Bubba was President until 17 years ago. To MSNBC and the rest of the subversive Satanic media, rapists and traitors aren’t worthy of discussion of Presidential fitness, while successful leaders are.

Since the liberals/democrats seem to be addicted NOW, to dementia and Alzheimer’s illness, I think the American public should DEMAND every member of Congress who is over 70 years of age be given a test to determine if they are also suffering or entering the stage of dementia / Alzheimer's.

I think Orrin Hatch shows signs, and so does DI FI of California..I'm glad he is not running again but we have to tolerate him for one more year..and at 84 DI FI is running again for a FRESH SIX YEAR TERM...that is unbelievable, she can barely open her eyes, seem the muscle of the eye lid is no longer functioning..she needs a cane to help her get around and can only READ STATEMENT that are prepared for her...she can not carry on a conversation unless read.. I just mentioned two, there are many many of them not functioning.. and should step aside..

I worked 17 years dressing hair in a nursing homes and hospitals. I cared for late stage Alzheimer's patients.. God Bless All who care for them and help them on their journey...
