    I love the deflection to pretend like Trump's dementia (or whatever is wrong with him) is anything but the strongest point in his own favor.

      Trump is still at like 90% of how he was in 2016. Sure he's a little slower and gets off on weird shit periodically, but some of what democrats wants to act like is dementia is just Trump's fucked up personality or showmanship or insane opinions, etc.

      Like when he says "I want to execute all the drug dealers! Like Xi! I asked him about helping us with executions in CHYNA and he was willing, folks!"

      That's not dementia it's just an old reactionary asshole, possibly lying (don't know Xi's opinion on this but whatever kinda irrelevant), going on a quasi racist rant, with definitely reactionary and objectively ineffective solutions to a real problem which capitalism can't solve.

      But the media seems to think like oh look at Trump again, look at him blathering on. Yeah, he rambles on shit, but it has a point. Either a joke or incredibly horrific policy ideas usually. Biden has a point but going from point A to B he goes off on a trip to C, D, E, M, forgets how the hell he got there, stares off, says ANYWAY, and then goes to point N before changing subjects. He's forgetting the talking points, he lacks the ability to really process changes as facts change (or "facts" ie "beheaded babies"), and he just so very very clearly has trouble finishing full thoughts.

      I really wish they'd stop running the shit with Trump though. It's giving Trump a pass in a way like "no he doesn't mean all that stuff! Just crazy grandpa!" Yeah he's crazy but he knows what he's saying.

      But libs gonna lib as always. Wish they'd stop milking this Biden shit and have Schumer shove his head into the guillotine block already and be done with it. Pelosi asked dems to wait for after NATO today, well, here we are. All done. Now get tiny daggers ready (metaphorically, and not me doing it- for legal reasons)

          He constantly goes to number one and number two, first thing, second thing in his speech pattern. It sounds like kind of how I feel if I get too high and cant keep my thoughts in order.
