If Joe Biden is reelected in 2024 he will be 86 at the end of his second term.

Last week Trump, who is 77, was mentioned in [...]

Curious that the author can't use the same scale to talk about their ages. They're only 3.5 years apart in age, but phrasing it this way makes it feel like a lot more.

Did he actually say the words "cognitively impaired"? That seems like a lot of syllables.

[–] Hyperreality@kbin.social 38 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I have been reliably informed he 'knows words' and has 'the best words'.

[–] xkforce@lemmy.world 40 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Yeah someone is cognitively impaired alright but it isnt Biden.

Lets be real, Biden is showing signs of decline as well, I mean the man is in his 80s. I'd be surprised if he wasn't. I think he's doing better just by virtue of living an overall healthier lifestyle than trump.

But the biggest difference is that biden doesn't have to double down on every ridiculous, nonsensical, half thought that tumbles, unbidden, from his mouth because the only brain cells left are directly associated with self-aggrandizement and sexual assault.

I can't believe a scrawny clown snatch is the voice of reason around here.

[–] Hyperreality@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

To be fair, I think you'd have a hard time proving he's declined significantly in the last few years. You can't unflush a turd.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why…. Would you want to un-flush a turd?

[–] DeepThought42@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

It's been my experience that sometimes turds unflush themselves.

WW2 being about to start does explain all the nazis who still have teeth

Words can't describe the idiocy.

I knew that son of a bitch could time travel...

I'm onto you Joe! Get me one of those sports almanacs from the future and I'll keep my mouth shut.

[–] mx_smith@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Trumps already got it, how do you think Biff became president.

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Time travel hijinks that must be resolved by Joe Biden giving me an almanac from the future so that I can secure a financial future for my family?

[–] makuus@pawb.social 13 points 2 years ago

Every accusation is a confession.

The irony of him being Putin's discarded bitch is the cherry on top.

If only he was a comedian. He’d be so good.

[–] rynzcycle@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

I mean, the US economy has never been stronger than the post-war era...

Yeah ok, still probably not worth it.

/Trump is a jackass

almost as juicy as the McConnel reboot
