    He has a card for meeting with ambassadors which literally says, in short form, “sit down. Say hello. Answer questions. Leave”.

    He forgot how to stand on a bike. Hell, he forgets how to walk up stairs sometimes. Even walking on the ground, he sometimes ignores secret service instructions. He’s 81. 81. And I’m getting flak for calling him out?

    I can get people defending Greg abbot for being disabled, because that’s not the point of his dilemma. This is different, because he is literally too old to be fit to serve.

    Edit: I also never said anything about speech, where were you getting that from?
