    It is way, way worse than this. It’s not hundreds, it’s millions. 1 in 3 people in the US over 65 have some form of dementia. The Republican party is driven by dementia at this point. There is a literal reason they’ve been rhetorically targeting the cognitively impaired for the last ten years. I am a dementia care professional and this is not a joke.
