Bragging about passing a «difficult» test that is only given if the doc suspects cognitive decline :lol:
Also, no president before had to discuss his cognitive abilities. How Trump gets away in anyone's eyes with spinning that as a positive I'll never know.

Exactly.
Add it to the ever growing list of hypocrisy. This is THE time to lead and again he doesn't even bother. Everyone is expendable to this guy. Think about all the folks that he was going to help and hasn't done jack shit for and thrown under the bus. Many thought they were on his side too..until they weren't. Other than rallies how often have you seen this guy actually go to hard hit areas and do other things that seem to indicate he does anything but care about the photo op. He's a social media influencer on a power trip. Nothing more.

I'm sure his ridiculously oversized signature will be on that possible next round of stimulus checks again even though he opposed to the whole thing. Because why do anything yourself when you can claim the credit for other people s work. You know.. The kinda person usually 99% of us hate.

For the intellectually watered down (or lazy/short attention span/thick as pig shit) people can someone break down what Trump is doing in Portland?

pretty sure it was brought up with reagan
Did he? I thought it might have been because of early Alzheimer's, but his Wiki says his diagnosis came only in 1994, which is six years after the end of his presidency. Anyway, not sure, but it wouldn't be a favourable point of comparison for Trump. :)

Where's my arc, Paulie?
Historically democrats have always been in agreement with republicans when it comes to crime and policing. Not sure how something so obvious can be overlooked by some.

Yes, towards the end of his presidency it was rumoured that his mental faculties were beginning to show signs of failure. Many of his advisors were significantly concerned.

In the early 80s the was a show called Spitting Image, it had a segment called "The President's Brain Is Missing". As a child I found it hallarious. Like now with Trump, even before his reelection some suspected he wasn't all there.

I'm having difficulty posting it as media, but it's on YouTube, if you'd like to give it a look.

Basically because the police are the bouncer security detail of the rich to protect from the poor and paid by the middle class. And the DNC are as rich as the GOP

Thanks!

Found a compilation of episodes of those missing brains. Looks like fun (only saw a few bits so far). I actually only knew Reagan on Spitting Image from the Genesis video for Land of Confusion!

They are using federal agents like Customs/Border Protection types that fall under the Department of Homeland Security to make a show without the mess of involving the Department of Defense. So calling in some military without actually calling the military, if you will.

Cheers. I'm still confused.

Basically they’re flooding right wing media with heavily distorted ‘news’ and panic mongering about how the Democratic cities are like war zones with bands of crazed Marxists murdering kids and white people. Trump then sends in his thugs to ‘restore order’ and all the conservatives who spent decades clutching their pearls about the feds having too much power are cheering them on, and more likely to come out and vote in November.

Excellent summary.

What a world. It really is the 'how bad can it be' flashback from when Trump was elected.

Still laughing at the GOP having to cancel their convention in FL.
I suppose part of me wanted it to go ahead so we could see the idiots there but overall a good decision.

We will miss the Trump Apprentice Contest -- between Ivanka, Eric and Junior on who will carry the Trump mantle in 2024 with their campaign kick-off speeches there.

I posted that under the tweet and someone said, but it's happening in democrat run cities!

To which I said, ah so not the presidents fault?

No!

Ok so it wouldn't be Biden's fault either then?

Profanity laden rant about the swamp and stuff.

I was so close, but he won the aegument and schooled me.
