Biased
editThis is one of the most biased pages I have ever seen. I am not biased towards Trump or Biden. In fact, I have equal opinions of both of them, but take a look at the “age and health concerns of Joe Biden” page compared to this one. This page is clearly biased, but I’m afraid editing it will cause it to become protected.

- This page is already protected, to the extent that as it is under arbitration remedies. If the Biden article is underdeveloped compared to this one, the solution is to expand that article along similar lines of coverage in reliable sources. Everything on this page is sourced information. BD2412 T 16:42, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
Severe pro-Democrat bias
editWhat a joke. I don't support either party but this is absolutely pathetic. The author don't even try to make it sound neutral. Alas, nothing is ever completely impartial. "Sourced information", that doesn't excuse the twisting of "the narrative" to the author's ideological viewpoint. Wikipedia is meant to be neutral! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.101.90.88 (talk) 19:30, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- This page almost exactly parallels the Age and health concerns about Joe Biden page, which was kept as it is following a lengthy deletion discussion. The existence of both pages demonstrates ideological balance. Of course, there is more substance to this page, but that is event-driven, as Biden for example has no family history of dementia to report, never had a doctor's office raided for records, and was never hospitalized for Covid.

- It’s not even close to being parallel to the page of Joe Biden. Firstly, there are no trusted sources that can claim Donald Trump has dementia. Secondly, “narcissism” is neither an age nor health concern.

- The article doesn't say that Trump has dementia, it says that that concerns about this have been reported by at least some medical professionals (as cited in reliable sources), which they have. As for "narcissism", there is a specific condition, narcissistic personality disorder, which is indeed a DSM-listed mental health issue. Again, the article doesn't say that Trump has such a condition, but that reliable sources have reported that some experts in the field assert that he does. BD2412 T 12:19, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
Add A Fact: "Trump claims crowd reaction at audience-free debate"
editI found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below
During an appearance on Fox's The Five on Wednesday, Donald Trump claimed that the crowd went crazy for him at last week's debate, even though there was no audience.
The fact comes from the following source:
Here is a wikitext snippet to use as a reference:

Claim that Trump was shot
editThe section about the 2024 assassination attempt currently claims that "Trump was shot and wounded in his upper right ear by Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old man from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania". The sourcing does not support this claim. The first sources states that the USSS had "not yet publicly confirmed that Mr. Trump was shot in the ear", whereas the wording makes it sound like 1) Trump was shot i.e. hit by a bullet and 2) that the ear wound is the result of the bullet, and not, say, shrapnel. I suggest we reword this to "Trump was shot at by Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old man from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania" and leave the ear part to the second paragraph.
