He clearly wasn't connecting that name...should he have remembered? Of course. Not sure how his remarks weren't prepared and wouldn't have included some sort of remembrance for her. For fucks sake tRump made remarks that suggested Frederick Douglass was still alive.bootlegger10 said:I don't think "just fine" is the way we should describe it. People will have gaffes no question, but some of his gaffes are a little out there. I'm sure the brain slows down over time, so a 60 year old president's brain may recall quicker that someone had died a few months back and won't be in the audience before you blurt something out.
But still...other than obvious gaffes that everyone has you can't tell me that Biden doesn't have the mental capacity. I've seen him talk enough with no teleprompters to know that.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

certainly you slow down with age. Selectively being bothered by that makes no sense. All of this is in the context of Biden isn’t ok but trump somehow is based of gaffes and age. The amount of stuff Trump says that needs to explained away is way, way more
none of this is based on any medical diagnosis it’s based on saying dumb stuff. I fail to see how it’s even remotely comparable
biden also has a stutter, always has. when you are focusing on the words coming out right, I would imagine you are focused less on what you are saying. It’s like doing two things at once constantly. Your mistake (gaffe) rate has to be higher statistically but Biden’s is still lower than Trump’s. So what does that say?Post edited by Cropduster-80 on0 -

It really sucks that Trump has now become the benchmark.... if better than trump it's all ok....really low bar.hippiemom = goodness0

The bar is there only because republicans are making half a comparison. If you want to talk about it, talk about it in wholecincybearcat said:It really sucks that Trump has now become the benchmark.... if better than trump it's all ok....really low bar.
I’d rather be talking about a gaffe or someone wearing a tan suit though, that means there isn’t any siding with Russia over our own intelligence agencies or blaming California for fires that started largely on federal land and threatening to withhold aid because the governor is mean or any throwing paper towel rolls at Puerto Ricans going on
ill take that as a win
There is literally no conversation happening about what the objective benchmark should be for everyone in all aspects of mental stability. It’s more like a set up for justifying why someone doesn’t want the guy to be president in the first place. You can’t have a bar when you just move it when it doesn’t suitPost edited by Cropduster-80 on0 -
it hasn't. it's all just response to the hypocrisy of the right complaining about biden not being mentally competent all the while claiming trump was a genius.cincybearcat said:It really sucks that Trump has now become the benchmark.... if better than trump it's all ok....really low bar.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
Yeah and I do hate to always compare to tRump but I don't know what else to do.
I like Biden but I think Buttigieg and/or Gavin Newsom should run in 2024. I'm not impressed with Harris at all. Prior to the election I thought she was good...I just don't see it now.
And for GOP hypocrisy look no further than the hurricane response. Those fucking assholes that voted against hurricane relief when it hit blue states sure are begging for aid right now.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Regarding the recent gaffe...this one really is one of the cringy/funny gaffes and nothing to get all crazy about. But I am on record of not really being a Joe fan...and thinking his age is definitely a negative for the job as president.
I am not a big fan of the Dems for sure, but dammit they need to make sure Trump or DeSantis aren't the next president. Whatever it takes if it's against trump...hippiemom = goodness0 -

Those fucking assholes that voted against hurricane relief when it hit blue states sure are begging for aid right now.However if trump runs it’s got to be Biden, he has the most clear shot at winning as it’s just a rematch and Biden plays better in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania than most democrats. If it’s DeSantis it could be any of them and it’ll be close but it’ll be a different map potentially
but that’s why the electoral college is stupid. You are preferring the candidate who can win 2-3 states. That’s really the only calculation as they win the others anyway for the most part. So who wins those states is the best candidatePost edited by Cropduster-80 on0 -

agreed...the whole idea of the EC was to prevent a candidate (pre-TV, pre-telephone, pre-instant news) from making promises to a select few states in order to lock in the election.Cropduster-80 said:That’s where I’m at.

That failsafe has been morphed into the minority party getting their way two times now.
The EC isn't necessary in today's internet/instant news era. Makes no sense.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

If I was an actual Republican I’d be pissedGern Blansten said:making sure tRump/DeSantis aren't the next president....maybe the GOP should make sure of that to begin with is the point
you know if I was a defense hawk, free trade, hands off private business, rule of law, separation of powers, America’s role is being a world leader republican. It would be too much to handle.That was the Republican Party until 6 years ago. Where did they go? Deferring to Billy bob in a maga hat apparently
trump is in no way a “Republican” let’s get that straight. He added a bunch of nuts to the party to get enough numbers to win now the inmates are running the asylum.The vast majority of anyone Trump handpicked and initially hyped as the best ever for any key role in his administration also now thinks he’s unfit for office. These people are in a position to know. Either trump’s decision making selecting people is seriously lacking or they are right. Either way it doesn’t play well to Trumps mental capacity as that’s on him either wayThis is absurd the GOP can’t clean its own house. It’s not like they don’t know. They pretend they don’t but they know. DeSantis is trump with a brain. Still unfit and not really a sensible alternativePost edited by Cropduster-80 on0 -
