But they cannot fix dementia, nor the Alzheimer’s that will most likely follow.
this question is about Trump in the future, not Biden in the past and present.
Patrick why am I forbidden from downvoting this post?

Given what we know of Trump's health, realistically, how many more years could he live?
Oh, quite a bit longer, based on family history. But here’s the snag: His father had dementia when he was not much older than DJT today. We know that, it’s publicly known.
So, physically, a person like DJT, even with the obesity (which has become noticeably worse) could live quite a long life in the hands of good doctors.
But they cannot fix dementia, nor the Alzheimer’s that will most likely follow.
Here’s the bottom line: Given what DJT has disclosed about his health, and his family history, he could very easily enter a stage of dementia while he is in office, should he be re-elected. He has to know this, he saw his father suffer from it, he can do the math. I don’t think he will risk being the fool in front of the world (please see FAQ 1&2 below), and it is why I make this prediction:
DJT will campaign, enjoy the attention, and enrich his personal PAC fund. But if it comes down to it, he will not accept the nomination because of his health. He will walk away with the money and remain a public voice for the rest of his life. I think it could be very possible he does this near the end of the campaign and bring in Don Jr as a substitute. If that seems bizarre and unlikely, give it time to set in. It took me a day or two to notice all the pieces being set to fall into place.
Meh.. it doesn’t matter. Obviously D doesn’t want him. R-GOP is slowly easing away from him, and if you are R, you don’t want him anyway because he can only serve one term. The only people who would vote for DJT are his loyalists, and that is not enough.
FAQ:
Why would Trump suddenly be concerned about being a fool? Because he is a sociopath. If you are not familiar with this on a personal level, I suggest looking it up. A sociopath can rationalize almost anything, the world is a game to them. But a sociopath cannot rationalize their own defects.
However, if this is not convincing to you, then I will give you a secondary reason why he will not accept the nomination. He hates the job. He loves the money and attention, but I think anyone would see from his past that he is repulsed by the actual responsibilities. He distanced himself from the WH at every opportunity.
What about Biden? I’m not a Biden fan. This was not written to promote Biden. I wrote this because Trump is a potential candidate and his issues are worthy of discussion in that context. Truth be told, I am hoping for fresh names from both sides in 2024. But pointing our Biden’s problems in a post about Trump is whataboutism, and this question is about Trump in the future, not Biden in the past and present.
