We already have age limits at the lower end. Why are people so against age limits at the upper end?

If it were any other situation he'd be going to the hospital immediately. That's definitely either a stroke or a seizure and he needs a CT or MRI ASAP.

However, the optics of him freezing like that and then getting rushed to the hospital are bad, even worse than him looking like a wax sculpture and freezing, so he came back to say he's okay. Then he goes to the hospital, but they drive him around the block a few times before arriving to throw off the press.

He could just have Parkinson’s and it’s not public knowledge.

We aren’t really doctors and not really able to diagnose someone based on a clip.
