don't forget trump threatened to basically firebomb his college if they released his transcripts
Remember when W was the dumbest president we had? Like people mocked the shit out of him, and yet, he read books that would guide his domestic policy actions, showed up to work everyday, and could read at a 12th grade level. What a time to be alive.
Remember when Reagan...
The bar is so low it’s underground now
W was pretending to be dumb. He's not a genius or anything like that, but there are plenty of clips of him from the '90s as governor of Texas where he speaks like a normal, educated person in complete sentences and everything, and he even pronounced "nuclear" correctly. Republicans these days intentionally speak at a 5th grade level; Trump's big innovation is just speaking at a 4th grade level.
They also like to deride AOC as a waitress and say she knows nothing when she has a degree from Boston University in international relations and economics. Facts are not really their strong point.
Even more so she is the epitome of pulled up by her bootstraps.
Waitress (or any other retail service) experience is worth a lot in my book.
If you elect me as president, Linux will be the must have OS for public sector, Self-hosting will become a recognized extreme sport and your specific Linux distribution will be the best one by law.
Way to go, whomever took that photo of Trump. He looks like Biff Tannen from alternate 1985.
He would be a president of the idiots. The problem is that there are enough idiots in the US that he got in office once and, as idiots don't learn from their mistakes, might even have another chance.
Some people say that for every 10 bankruptcies they give you a degree in economics as a freebie!
Sure they passed the bar…but would you want to have a beer with them at the bar?
Clinton and Obama seem like they'd be cool.
Clinton is a fascinating guy. He has something like an Eidetic memory and can recall names of people he's only met briefly. He can also work a room like no one else can. If there was ever anyone who was just born for politics, he's it.
Clinton called every person that worked in the White House by name.
I don't even know all my coworkers and I'm sure it's less than the number of people that worked in the White House.
Hell, I don't even know everyone in my family tree.
Ugh, Bill Clinton gave me one of the worst handshakes of my life one time. Total limp fish, the kind that makes you feel like maybe you should wash your hand to get rid of the feeling. I feel like I'd pass on him.
Good strat for shaking hundreds of hands. Less fatigue.
Fuck, I just defended a Clinton. brb; gonna wash my brain.
He also couldn't be bothered to stop the conversation he was having with a staff member (about nothing important) or even glance my way. He engaged with everyone before and after me, so it really stood out, to the point that a couple of people commented on how rude it was. It was kind of crushing - I was like, 20, and had really admired him as a kid, and then I paid what was a ton of money for me at the time and waited for hours for nothing. Now that I'm older and a lot more cynical, I wouldn't pay to meet him in the first place, and I definitely wouldn't be surprised by a politician acting like an ass, but back then I was still young and idealistic and had feelings that could be hurt.
Im fairly certain I'd drink with any of them other than Trump. Bush would probably be fun to drink with, even if I don't agree with his political ideas. A drinking session with Carter might be his last, but if he was offering, sure
I mean, they payin'?
Lawyer bars got some legit selection.
they may arrive late because they keep passing it
Man, of course Dubya was MBA. Sad thing is that MBA still made him better than President Convict.
Four lawyers, MBA, and an alleged economist. Sounds about right.
So, if you're a medical doctor or an economics expert, don't bother running for office as a Democrat. They only want lawyers telling their followers how to think
