Hmmm. Have to see what shakes out. So far I just see it on Breitbart and The Daily Mail.

This is a common trait of people with dementia. Having dementia doesn't mean you can't perform on a fairly normal basis most of the time. Dementia is a deterioration of the brain. Hardly surprising out of a 95 year old.
Something nurses that take of the elderly would understand. If he is 95 with dementia which would be very common, this is not a metoo moment.

Exactly. That's what's stupid about the whole article. The elderly suffer from a number of deteriorating mental faculties and conditions. It brings out all kinds of actions that were not things those people did when they were younger and fully in control. There is a difference between a 95 year old with dementia and a 30 year old Hollywood actor or director doing the same thing. |

It's quite common in nursing homes too. The stories a nurse friend told me was quite telling. If you did not have thick skin you would quit very quickly. Both old men and women grabbing whatever was close. Many of them had no clue where they were or who they were anymore. |
