It was always a LIE that Biden was and is in mental "decline."

Obituary: Actress Loretta Swit, 87, best remembered for her role as "Major Houlihan" in the longrunning 1970s-1980s sitcom M.A.S.H., has died, reportedly of natural causes. She died at her home in NYC.
Snip:
Sally Kellerman played Houlihan in the movie version and Swit took it over for TV, eventually deepening and creating her into a much fuller character. Her sexuality was played down and she wasn’t even called “Hot Lips” in the later years.
The growing awareness of feminism in the ’70s spurred Houlihan’s transformation from caricature to real person, but a lot of the change was due to Swit’s influence on the scriptwriters.
“Around the second or third year I decided to try to play her as a real person, in an intelligent fashion, even if it meant hurting the jokes,” Swit told Suzy Kalter, author of “The Complete Book of ‘M.A.S.H.’”
“To oversimplify it, I took each traumatic change that happened in her life and kept it. I didn’t go into the next episode as if it were a different character in a different play. She was a character in constant flux; she never stopped developing.”

Swit took the sexism that had been in the movie version of the character.
