He wants to run our country; but he needs to be in bed by 8pm

[ashleysimmer]

Enough is enough. Get him out of the white house. This is beyond insane.

Media, 2020: Joe's fine, he's just a stutterer.
Media, 2024: Joe's fine, he just had a cold.
Media, 2027: Joe's not dead, he's just resting.

The thing is, he actually didn't screw up. A blind person isn't "screwing up" when they can't see. A blind person is only screwing up if they try to convince themselves they could see if they tried harder.

You know Trump is leading by a lot when they finally admit he’s leading in the polls…

Bad parents make excuses for their kids. Don’t be a bad voter and make excuses for Biden.

Staring into space like a psycho isn't a 'mistake'

Biden said "look at what I've done in three POINT five years", instead of saying three and a half years. That tells me he was reading. Nobody talks that way.

Imagine going to your girlfriend’s family’s house for dinner. At the beginning of the meal you crap your pants. You hope they don’t notice but very quickly it becomes obvious. Pretty soon everyone is making faces of concern. Family members can’t eat their meals. You talk louder over the audible gagging, hoping that it will compensate for the smell. People politely begin to ask you to step out. You politely decline. Her mom throws up in the garbage. The smell is now one with the feast. Even if you left, that’s probably all anyone would be tasting for a while. “Please leave my dinner table”, her Father mutters through halting coughs of disgust. You look him dead in the eyes and push another one out. “I’m not going anywhere” you smoothly reply. You feel a hand on your thigh. You look over and your girlfriend says, ”That’s right. _We_ aren’t going anywhere.” I suppose in some messed up way, it takes a sociopathic courage to stay much longer than anyone wants you to.

He had a cold. He stutters. He had jet lag. He was under prepared. It’s the moderator’s fault, it was late in the evening….
Keep on gaslighting
