Joe Biden demonstrates 'suspicious syndrome', 'hyper vigilance' and 'defensive aggression' when asked uncomfortable questions
Psychiatrist suggest many delusions and other psychotic symptoms may reflect a malfunctioning “Suspicion System” that has evolved to detect and monitor social threats.
If such psychology exist in Mr Biden, its components 'confusion, hesitation, searching for words' etc,,,which is directly observable in Biden, - his cognitive decline is open to observation - if Mr Biden was cooperative investigation could proceed through the standard methods of the cognitive sciences.
The challenge is that there is an important sense in which diagnoses cannot be validated at all, if by “validation” we mean “shown to be a real disorder”. All validation can do is show that a pattern of behaviour deemed to be clinically significant depends on a physical process. Hey Joe, 'come on, man'.
