I'll take a ‘completely senile guy’ over the evil Trump any day, any night, peace or war.

Looks like he's talking about the number of locations he visited. Not the actual number of states...A regular political slip that you get when you make a lot of speeches too often.

Anyway, Nice try, but he's still sending aid to the Ukraine and bolstering infrastructure projects....not the democracy destroying McCarthy and the Republicans want to cause.

Trump sounds stupid or makes a mistake every time he opens his mouth, yet chopper gets hung up on the few mistakes Biden makes. Partisan much?

yes, that's all he's got. As usual, he comes in, makes a post and runs away. chopper is not strong enough to come back to defend his point of view. He's a troll.

Words of wisdom


That fall on deaf ears, mine included.

But I strive to do better.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

Yep, Biden can talk extemporaneously without a podium or teleprompter, whereas Trump can’t sound intelligent even with a teleprompter. Amazing chopper seems to think that Trump is the intelligent one here.

45's followers seem to adhere to the What I tell you three times is true” doctrine.

It's friggin dangerous.

Stuff like this isn't just an annoyance. It's a warning that for a substantial portion of the population reality isn't what's observable and testable, it's what they're told by their authority figures.

And they will filter and shape everything they see and hear to fit whatever narrative they're fed.

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
As of July 16, 2022, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is now available by simply dialing 988. The previous number, 1-800-273-8255, will remain active.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

A man known for making gaffs made one in 2018. Now THAT’s news! Thank you for sharing!

Now for a list of Trump’s idiotic ramblings that actually show a lack of common sense, knowledge, and intelligence.
I’m going to start with injecting bleach and irradiating the internals with UV light - presumably with a black light shoved up the rectum. Anyone else?



I truly believe in ignoring trolls. Sometimes, though, I can’t step away.

How quickly they forget (just from early in tRump's term)...

"I wrote this out, and it's very close to my heart. Because I was down there, and I watched our police and our firemen down at 7/11 — down at the World Trade Center..."

"I hope they now go and take a look at the oranges, the oranges of the investigation, the beginnings of that investigation."

"one million eight hundred and seventy thousand million [Covid] tests."

"They work two jobs and sometimes three jobs. They sacrifice every day for the furniture – and future – of their children,...”


Following the Kansas City Chiefs' victory over the San Francisco 49ers during the Super Bowl, Trump took to Twitter to congratulate the winning team for representing the "Great State of Kansas."

etc., etc., etc.

I mean, how many laptops does a man need?

A long time ago in a galaxy...well, right here in this galaxy, I had one of those "page-a-day" type calendars that had such classics as "I believe man & fish can coexist," and "People are working hard to put food on their families."

Pretty sure they had enough to keep the calendars going for many years.

Anyway, it doesn't matter what Trump ever said. He has a lot of money, so he must be smart.

I didn't say they weren't the sharpest tools just that they may not be.

I didn't say they weren't tools, so there is that.

why don't any Trump supporters call him on his repeated LIES to "repeal and replace Obamacare?"


[khn.org]

Ever since he was a presidential candidate, President Donald Trump has been promising the American people a “terrific,” “phenomenal” and “fantastic” new health care plan to replace the Affordable Care Act.

But, in the 3½ years since he set up shop in the Oval Office, he has yet to deliver.

In his early days on the campaign trail, circa 2015, he said on CNN he would repeal Obamacare and replace it with “something terrific,” and on Sean Hannity’s radio show he said the replacement would be “something great.” Fast-forward to 2020. Trump has promised an Obamacare replacement plan five times so far this year. And the plan is always said to be just a few weeks away.


Worse than a stupid gaffe by Old Joe.
