  1. I’m a third of his age, I can’t remember what I did last week let alone ten years ago. Yes he’s old, sadly he’s our only option. We better get behind his campaign and stop criticising otherwise the criminal Cheeto will get in again.

  2. Good! The special counsel overstepped his boundaries.

  3. 2x Trump appointee makes wildly inappropriate personal, political attacks and speculates about jury sympathies in a Special Counsel report. If you needed a reminder why adding more Trump appointees in a potential 2nd term to populate more areas of government is an exercise in rot install, you got one today.

  4. Biden is totally gone just read this speech he made.. oh wait this was Trump:

    Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible.

  5. Why is the Special Counsel spewing personal political attacks at the guy he failed to prosecute? It’s super unprofessional.

  6. Don’t forget, y’all –

    The narrative that Biden is having cognitive decline is right-wing propaganda. It doesn’t matter that Trump’s issues are so obvious and ongoing – because his supporters and the GOP have become a cult for his personality. The special counsel is a Republican. The first reporter Biden called on is a Republican operative for an outlet that had to pay $787 million for lying to their viewers.

    The hope is to discourage enough Democrat voters that Trump can sneak to another huge popular vote loss and another squeaky Electoral college “win.”

    Don’t be distracted. Register, and vote, and ignore the right-wing noise.

  7. Seems weird. The orange man told me that it was Biden’s DOJ, so why did they release this information?

  8. Going to repost what I’ve said elsewhere:

    Having trouble with dates isn’t necessarily indicative of a problem, particularly when we aren’t being given the context around the conversation (i.e. was this a momentary flub in a conversation, or was it him struggling to identify a date and just being unable to)

    The presidency isn’t a game of split-second decisions, it’s not Jeopardy. I want someone who will appoint the right people, fight for what i think are the right causes, and with due deliberation make the right choices more often than not. Show me evidence he can’t do those things and I’ll be right with you in denouncing him.

    Sure, in a perfect world I wish there were a younger president, but everything is a trade off. Biden helped get an insane amount done before we lost the House – more than anyone thought he could do. Maybe some charismatic, smooth-talking younger president would present better but not be as effective. Maybe that hypothetical president wouldn’t have the institutional knowledge and connections that enabled everything from helping to finally getting infrastructure passed to holding together NATO in the face of its largest threat in history.

    Wanna know why I’m not ready to fire this employee? Because I’m looking at his accomplishments, and they look pretty damn good, so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. I’ll judge based on his actions, not on little snippets of video here and there.

  9. In a 5 hour interview, Robert Hur provided 3 examples of Biden maybe not remembering an exact timeframe. He also said that Biden was forgetful because he mentioned he had a difference of opinion with someone, but Hur said that he liked this person otherwise! Oh the horror. That’s it. 4 fucking things. Joe Biden has had the busiest 15 years of maybe anyone in the world. And now he has to deal with the garbage media attacking him for being a couple years off on his son’s death. Robert Hur is a disgrace and this is worse than the James Comey slander.

  10. I’m a neuropsychologist and a democrat. I think Biden probably has some cognitive decline like most 81 year olds. He is certainly better off than some of my patients, but I have noticed a relative frailty in him. Nonetheless, Trump is no better. His “acing” of the MoCA is absurdly stupid. No one knows what his score was but getting a normal score on a cognitive screening tool doesn’t rule out a neurocognitive disorder.

    Commercial airline pilots are required to retire at 65 because of age-related deficits. This should not be any different for politicians. We don’t need more Dianne Feinsteins making decisions with dementia for the populace.

  11. “That’s funny cause I remember when I was doing your mom last night” – Dark Brandon or something

  12. Republicans mad that Biden can still tell one woman from another.

  13. I didn’t know that the mandare of the special counsel exonerating Biden was also supposed to humiliate him. What a turd! Another Comey curve ball or, shall be say, fuck ball

  14. I love how everyone here is defending Biden. It’s most likely true what the special counsel said him being appointed by trump has nothing to do.

    All you have to do is watch videos of Joe Biden clearly he has memory issues he is lost at times. I have no issue with him but there should absolutely be an age limit to run for president. 81 is really pushing it he is old it’s not uncommon for him to have memory issues the question is do people really want him running the country

  15. I love how Trump can sit in a 10 hour deposition and say I don’t recall for 10 hours straight and Biden’s memory is the bad one.

  16. Shit I can’t remember what I ate for breakfast half the times. Being forgetful seems pretty normal

  17. I’m no big city lawyer but fairly sure medical commentary from a non-physician would never hold up in an actual court. Which one presumes this said big city lawyer would very much know.

  18. Obviously he has issues, there are many videos of it, not sure why it’s not a question.

  19. Breaking news: Special prosecutor Hur is found to be a Chinese spy found to be in cahoots with Chinese propaganda media to influence 2024 election in favor of Trump.

  20. “My memory is fine.”

    And then he confuses Mexico for Egypt.

    oops

  21. Trump…

    On Ivanka,

    “I don’t think Ivanka would do that inside the magazine. Although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said that if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I would be dating her.”

    Women,

    “Women have one of the great acts of all time. The smart ones act very feminine and needy, but inside they are real killers. The person who came up with the expression ‘the weaker sex’ was either very naive or had to be kidding. I have seen women manipulate men with just a twitch of their eye — or perhaps another body part.”

    Apologies,

    “I think apologizing’s a great thing, but you have to be wrong. I will absolutely apologize, sometime in the hopefully distant future, if I’m ever wrong.”

    Climate Change,

    “The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.”

    On October 19, 2015, he then tweeted: “It’s really cold outside, they are calling it a major freeze, weeks ahead of normal. Man, we could use a big fat dose of global
    warming!”

    Relations with Mexico

    “I will build a great wall — and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me –and I’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”

    7% of the American population,

    “It’s like in golf. A lot of people — I don’t want this to sound trivial — but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive. It’s weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can’t sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist.”

    Trump on border control,

    “I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will have Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”

    Trump on abortion…

    “Do you believe in punishment for abortion – yes or no – as a principle?”

    “The answer is there has to be some form of punishment.”

    “For the woman?”

    “Yeah, there has to be some form.”

    MSNBC, 30/3/16

    Trump on gay marriage,

    “It’s like in golf… A lot of people – I don’t want this to sound trivial – but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive… it’s weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can’t sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist.”

    Twitter, 19/10/15

    Trump on gun control,

    “No matter what you do – guns, no guns – it doesn’t matter. You have people that are mentally ill. And they’re gonna come through the cracks. And they’re going to do things that people will not even believe are possible.”

    Meet the Press, 4/10/15

    Trump on running for President,

    “Well, if I ever ran for office, I’d do better as a Democrat than as a Republican – and that’s not because I’d be more liberal, because I’m conservative. But the working guy would elect me. He likes me. When I walk down the street, those cabbies start yelling out their windows.”

    Playboy, March 1990

    Trump on why he’s the right candidate,

    “I’m the most successful person ever to run for the presidency, by far. Nobody’s ever been more successful than me. I’m the most successful person ever to run. Ross Perot isn’t successful like me. Romney – I have a Gucci store that’s worth more than Romney.”

    Des Moines Register, 2/6/15

    Trump on Muslims,

    “Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”

    Trump on American football players kneeling during the National Anthem,

    “At least 24 players kneeling this weekend at NFL stadiums that are now having a very hard time filling up. The American public is fed up with the disrespect the NFL is paying to our Country, our Flag and our National Anthem. Weak and out of control!” Twitter, 28/11/17

    Trump on Covid-19,

    “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

    22/01/2020

    Trump on election defeat,

    “We are BIG weirdos, but they are trying to confirm the election confirms our small penises and hope we don’t cry. We will never let them do it. Votes cannot be cast after the Polls are closed and that was never an issue!”

    4.09/2020

  22. Presidential. Simple as that. Biden has succeeded in every way a president, especially in this climate, could.

    The other guy is fighting to not pay off his rape victims while throwing ketchup and shitting his pants.

  23. Yeah let’s pick on this guys memory while we have a psychotic delusional rapist wannabe dictator waiting in the wings.

  24. People are trying hard in these comments to defend Biden , haven’t seen this much denial since trump lost the election. Biden is going to have a hard time winning the election

  25. I care more about character than sharpness. I would, without hesitation, vote for a Golden Retriever that could sign legislation over Donald Trump.
