    There’s a line of attack on @JoeBiden(and not just from Trump and his sycophants, toadies, and lackeys, but also from @DrJillStein) claiming that he’s showing signs of cognitive decline. In reality, he’s had a lifelong problem with stuttering. 1/ https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/01/joe-biden-stutter-profile/602401/ …

        I am a speech pathologist. I am so fucking over people dragging Biden because of his stuttering disfluencies and I’ve been calling them out. It is abhorrent to me especially since Trump sounds like every dementia patient I’ve ever treated.

        Personal story: Do you know who else makes themself sound like an idiot and might have “dementia”? Me. Do you know why? Because of my stutter. My speech impediment, my disability, manifests in a million different ways.

        Stuttering is one of the few disabilities that it’s still considered acceptable to laugh at. 4/4

        The hashtags #DemExit #BernieSurge and #BidensCognitiveDecline all originated at around 2:30 a.m. Eastern U.S. time (9:30 a.m. Moscow time) and have since been amplified by Jill Stein. It's going to be like this every day between now and Nov. 3. Don't let your guard down.

        Replying to @gorskon @JoeBiden @DrJillStein

        There's probably very little politically that Biden and I would agree on, yet I find this line of attack absurd. I've known enough people with stutters to know what a triumph it is just to be functional. Criticizing policy is fine. Stupid personal attacks are not.

        Replying to @clgood @JoeBiden @DrJillStein

        Indeed. If you read the article, you’ll see how far Biden went, how much effort he put into overcoming it, including rehearsing hours upon hours reading complex poetry and carefully marking out speeches where it’s OK to pause and boxing in alternate words. That’s admirable.

        I see belligerent Bernie supporters are going to make Biden’s stutter a campaign issue. Beyond granting Trumpists a cruel attack surface this is ignorant and unbecoming of so-called progressives. I stutter and I too reconstruct my sentences in real-time to manage dysfluency onset

        I have extensive research training in both the domains of developmental psychology and speech/language disorders. Let me be clear: Joe Biden has a stutter. When you mock him for this or turn it into something else, you are causing harm to other people who stutter.
