Kind of surprising....a major commentary piece by Helmut Markwort for Focus came up today (Sunday edition) to comment on the mental decline of President Biden.
It's the first that I've noticed in the German news media.
Hinfällig (the German word for frail) is used in the first four lines of his commentary and it's typically not a positive German word to describe one's condition in life....at least by German standards.
What hinfällig typically translates into? A severely weakened old person.
Most all print and televised news in Germany have avoided the topic....so I'd classify this as the first moment where the German public were introduced to the issue.
