Joe Biden has forgotten more than Trump has ever known

It's a low bar for sure. Very low. A duck would trip over the bar.

I like that joke, making fun of both of them at the same time

I mean, we are currently fighting nazis

[-] winterayars@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 year ago

Biden sure didn't cause that, though.

[-] YexingTudou@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago

I know, I just like making jokes

This is a direct quote from the Orangeutang.

“I think had they not done it to me, and I’m very popular, they like me and I like them, the Republican Party, perhaps you wouldn’t have it being done to them, and this is going to happen with indictments, too. And I think you’re going to see that as time goes by, you’re going to see Republicans when they’re in power, doing it, and it’s a shame when that happens. I’m not in favor of that, but that’s what’s going to happen because that’s human nature.”

From this article.

Arguing that the other guy is in mental decline is such a weird strategy when your guy can't put together a coherent sentence.

[-] Jomega@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago

Did r/ihadastroke migrate here from reddit yet? Because that quote belongs there.

[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 33 points 1 year ago

"I'm very popular"

Current state of Republican politics.

[-] samsepi0l@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

The "I'm the most humble person ever" quote is also great

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 33 points 1 year ago

My grandmother was telling me about this, I was hoping she had mixed up satire with reality.... She did not

Apparently Trump also thinks he'd be running against Obama in 2024?

[-] Soulg@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

A lot of people think that Obama is actually running things because they're braindead monkeys

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

Remember the guy who was interviewed and asked why Obama wasn't in the White House during 9/11 and wanted an investigation on that

[-] gummybootpiloot@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

The "intelligencer" jeez that one cringe newspaper name

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Rightoids are all that kid in school that thought they were the smartest kid in class, but got all Cs and justified it by saying if they "actually tried" they would get all As easily.

I think it's fun: using the old timey word for "spy" or "intelligence operative" evokes the old timey task of gathering documents and information and analyzing them to understand things related to politics or world affairs (especially since it's a column/blog for a broader general interest magazine, that covers much more than just politics and news).

[-] riesendulli@discuss.tchncs.de 22 points 1 year ago

WTF World War II ?

First aliens, now time traveling?

[-] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

The US never signed the treaty ending WW 1 so it doesn't count?

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

It's par for the course for him.

Remember, this is the guy who claimed that Washington crossed the Delaware to take British airbases by surprise. He also stated that troops fought hard in the jungles of Desert Storm.

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

Well you have to admit there was very little air action in the war of independence.

Well, at least it is clear now who of them both is really 'impaired'.

[-] forporn@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Holy shit i was sure this was an onion piece.

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

The wonderful thing about all this is, whether we elect Trump or Biden, we're still stuck with a brain-dead asshole who can't string together a coherent sentence.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 71 points 1 year ago

boTh SIdeS aRE ThE sAMe !!

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

They are in this way, absolutely.

Old, brain-dead assholes who can't string together a coherent sentence.

[-] HopeOfTheGunblade@kbin.social 26 points 1 year ago

Riiiiiight, the guy who forgot world war two, and the guy who played the entire opposing party at his state of the union, absolutely indistinguishable.

[-] Earthwormjim91@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

Only one of these men has ever had to take a cognitive test.

Biden has always had a speech impediment but is still sharp as a tack.

Trump has pudding for brains, and that’s insulting pudding.

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 year ago

Well, only one tried to overthrow a democratically election, and is currently facing criminal charges.

[-] chase_what_matters@lemmy.world 52 points 1 year ago

I would rather pick the old guy whose base instinct is kindness. People who leave comments like you have always seem to pass over that little detail.

If you can't tell that one side is worse than the other then you're in mental decline.

Image Transcription:

Article from Intelligencer magazine's Tremendous Content section with the title "Trump Warns 'Cognitively Impaired' Biden May Cause 'World War II'

By Margaret Hartmann, senior editor for Intelligencer who has worked at New York since 2012"

Below is a photo of an elderly man saluting a memorial wreath.

[-] stingpie@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I believe the elderly man is biden.

[-] Schmuppes@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Those are not mutually exclusive.

[-] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Not all elderly men are joe Biden, but all joe Bidens are elderly men.

I think there's a typo in that headline, the "cognitively impaired" part should go at the beginning.

[-] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

thats has to be a typo, right?......right?

You are welcome to discuss and debate any topic but arguments are not welcome here. I consider debate/discussions to be civil; people with different opinions participating in respectful conversations. It becomes an argument as soon as someone becomes aggressive, nasty, insulting or just plain unpleasant. Report argumentative comments, then ignore them.

There is currently no rule about how recent a post needs to be because the community is about the comeback part, not the topic.

Rules:

• Be civil and remember the human.

• No trolling, insults or name calling. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone.

• No bigotry of any kind, including homophobia, transphobia, sexism and racism.

• Try not to get too political. A lot of these posts will involve politics, but this isn’t the place for political arguments.

• Participate in good faith - don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguements sake.

This community follows the rules of the lemmy.world instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  5. Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  6. Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  7. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
