But no concern about him being a rapist and a pedophile and GIVING ALASKA TO RUSSIA???
Resident. Just let it happen. I don't know how folks would actually respond.
During his campaign last year, Trump thought that Johnny Carson was still alive and available to take back the Tonight Show.
Not a peep from the media or even Lemmy. It was, "Biden senile."
He thinks Hannibal Lecter is real, dead, and a fan of his. He's obviously fictional, neither the character in any media he's been portrayed in or any of the actors who portrayed him have died, and the character's second most well known trait (you know, after the whole cannibal thing) is his absolute disdain for rude, vulgar people, and none of the actors have displayed a fondness for Donald either. His closing message before the election was about how much he loved deceased golfer Arnold Palmer's apparently enormous dick.
That is what I don't get big Biden fud anybody that he would have been crucified, but Trump not a peap.
He kept bringing up Hannibal Lector because he doesnt know the difference between an insane asylum and political asylum.
His campaign really fell apart there near the end. It was way worse than pretty much everyone realizes. He would just abruptly quit ranting and start dancing to the same song repeatedly.
And it ended up not mattering even a little bit.
.......... sparks?
I hate it here. Fucker has been riddled with syphilis and shitting himself since the 1980s and we allowed him to take the presidency twice.
Don't forget the child rapes.
I had to explain to my father that, because of the wording of the new york penal code, the only reason that trump isn't a convicted rapist is that the defendant could not assert on the stand whether Donald Trump penetrated her with his penis or his finger. Digital rape is a sexual assault charge. Rape needs a penis.
I wonder why she couldn't tell the difference. South Park again more on point than expected.
Smoldering dementia
Bush fire dementia
Are there citations for this? I’m genuinely asking, for context and so I can feel comfortable repeating it.
Edit: I don’t understand why this deserves a downvote. Im not defending Trump. I’m not trolling. I legit wanna hear stories about Trump shitting himself and the signs he has syphilis.
The poop thing I'll have to find the article. The syphilis is bold speculation from me and me alone.
You ask for logic in a place of feelings. People are here to hate, not tot think.
That evidently resonates with republican voters
he speaks to their cognitive ability
"Act like a dumbshit and they'll treat you like an equal."
The cons really took that quote from JR "Bob" Dobbs to heart...
They lack the slack for that.
Not surprising. Anyways, release the Epstein files you old demented child fucker.
The president's age was all the news could talk about until Biden dropped out. Suddenly it wasn't a problem anymore.
Also! Inflation and whether or not it was the president's fault, and all the Palestine protests and how Democrats (only Democrats) were facing a lot of heat for their support of Israel. Almost as if our media is corrupted by partisan influences that are trying to mislead and influence people, and it works shockingly well.
Meanwhile trump is 2.5 years younger than Biden was when he dropped out, and has 3.5 years to go. So, the president's age should be an even bigger issue then it was then, instead of disappearing altogether as an issue.
Child rapist has Alzheimer's... duh.
Motherfucker should be removed from office. Between bootlickers & insanely spineless politicians it'll never happen.
~~Motherfucker~~ Daughterfucker should be removed from office.
FTFY.
Release the Trump/Epstein Files, or just eject the Pedophile in Chief from the whitehouse.
It would take all 20 Republican seats to get flipped in 2026 to have any chance at all of removing Trump cuz you know not a single fucking republican will vote to remove his ass.

Why are we using not having dementia as the intellectual benchmark for someone to lead a country. Dude can’t read or do basic maths let alone understand more complex economics or geopolitics.
Even when he fails the dementia test we will resort to simply checking for a pulse, and I bet once he dies it will be covered up for as long as possible.
Had to be provided briefings in infographic and have it explained because his brain is fuckin putty.
You know, I wonder how far they'll take medical technicalities in the future. Could they keep the current SCOTUS on the bench for 200 years as a morbid ship of Theseus because it's a lifetime appointment? Just replace their organs with machinery as they fail?
What if Roberts' brain-in-a-jar occasionally drifted into sentience just to mouthlessly scream about how disappointed he is that nobody respects the court anymore? It would at least make me feel a little better.
Was it “the Cold War never ended,” because that’s actually true 🤣
LoL Stupid LIBTarDs! I DIDNT care when he RAPED CHILDREN ON EPSTEIN ISLAND so WHY would I care when he HAS DIMINTIA!
-Republicans who made fun of Biden's Dementia!
I've been "concerned" about his mental health since 2015
I was never concerned ..... I always knew he was an idiot ... now, not only is he an idiot .. he's an old demented idiot
And the best part is ... the best and brightest of America decided he was the man for the top job!
When he talked about prisons he was going on about Alcatraz and sing sing, like were in the days of the shawshank redemption or something
A White House spokesperson wrote the following statement, in part: “Joe Biden started this brutal war, and President Trump is trying to stop the killing.”
No, Dementia Donnie is standing in the nearby carwash wrapped in tissue paper trying to play checkers with a rubber chicken as one of play pieces.
I thought the long winded rambling about medians in the middle of his conference declaring martial law on Washington was a pretty big red flag
