Both are definitely... off, but exactly what's going on isn't really something we can concretely say.

I will, however, diagnose them both with old.

I diagnose both of them as having the big gay.

Oh you were waiting for me to say there is a cure. No, there is no treatment or vaccine for that kind of stupidity. It's a lifelong condition and there is no way to mitigate it. Once you got it, it's there to ruin everything you touch and it may be genetic but we don't know yet. I myself do research on the big gay with young men and women in my laboratory ranging from SoundCloud rappers to right wing conspiracy theorists to snapchat thots to Instagram comedians and Tik Tok stars. Some volunteered, most had to be restrained by force. So far my research has yielded no cure for the disease.

Best take control away from the Republicans in the Senate, then.

Like this is a new idea. Most elections in US history have come down to this.

Old in the old days was not quite as old as now thanks to all those new drugs. So, 80 is the new 70. BFD.

Biden doesn't actually have dementia. It's expected that Republicans would do an about face on armchair diagnosis with Trump, but parroting a stale meme is just annoying tbh.

Nah. Biden doesn't have dementia.

If trump looses, the republicans will magically discover they are republicans again and tell us it wasn't them; it was that evil mofo trump.

Much of what Trump did will be undone.

Under Trump, our economy and border security improved and the Supreme Court got rid of one of D.C's most ridiculous gun control laws. That's not evil. As for your claim that Biden doesn't have dementia, are you living under a rock or are you just high? He confused Merkel with Thatcher, forgot Obama's name multiple times, referred to South Carolina as "North South Carolina", claimed to have worked with Deng Xiaoping, who died 23 years ago, on the Paris Climate Accord during the Obama administration, said his deceased son was Attorney General, wrongfully insinuated that his deceased son (who died of cancer in 2015) died during the Iraq War, claimed that half the US population was killed by gun violence since 2007, said that MLK and RFK were killed in the '70's, mistook New Hampshire for Vermont, confused New Hampshire with Nevada, confused his wife for his sister at the start of a speech, and referred to Bernie and Corey Booker as "the president. Biden obviously has dementia.

How did border security and the economy improve? Unless we're seriously supposed to consider concentration camps to be an improvement.

And if armchair diagnosis is OK again, do we get to go into all the symptoms Trump has? Like his fear of stairs which is a fairly common sign of Alzheimer's, especially with his family history?

Not a big fan of the president, but his apparent enthusiasm for space exploration and investment into space travel is great. Credit where credit is due

Of course this doesn’t excuse all his other stuff, but a stopped clock is right twice a day

Anf if someone cites examples of Trump's mental impairment are you going to scream "TDS" and "ORANGE MAN BAD"?

Nation Astonished by Spectacle of Twitter Management Demonstrating Responsibility

Gormwood wrote:Nation Astonished by Spectacle of Twitter Management Demonstrating Responsibility

SAN FRANCISCO (The Borowitz Report)—Reacting to a bizarre development that no one saw coming, Americans this week have been dumbfounded by the unfathomable spectacle of Twitter’s senior management demonstrating responsibility.

In interviews across the country, people from all walks of life expressed shock and disbelief that Twitter executives appeared to recognize that their social-media platform was a potentially destructive entity that required a modicum of oversight from those supposedly running it.

“At first, when I saw that they were fact-checking tweets, I thought it was some kind of fluke,” Carol Foyler, a Twitter user from Topeka, said. “But then when they started hiding tweets for glorifying violence, I was, like, O.K., this is getting weird.”

“It almost seems like Twitter has been taken over by someone like Bill Gates or George Soros,” Harland Dorrinson, a user from Phoenix, said. “I would tweet something about that, but I’m afraid they might fact-check it.”

Tracy Klugian, a securities analyst who has been on Twitter since its inception, expressed concern that, by exhibiting even modest signs of adult responsibility, the company is “heading down a slippery slope.”

“Today it’s falsehoods and incitements to violence, but what will it be tomorrow?” he said. “Will Twitter start policing racists, misogynists, and Nazis? Their entire business model is at risk.”

What I find amusing is, they already police those groups. Not overbearingly, and many types of racists are completely ignored, but they do what people ask of them in this regard, mostly.
Action taken also depends on your clout; if you're a verified, you can get away with lots more shit than some nobody rando.

It's like the rock they hide under has been overturned. Look to these stinkbugs. Just listen at those wriggling squirming maggots demanding back the darkness they crave. Creepy crawlers the entire lot.

I have not seen TDS being used at those who would diagnose Trump with one illness or another. It's mainly used against those who believe Trump personally ruined their romantic or family lives, or some other nonsense.

Perhaps the economy is complex and forcibly shutting things down has an impact on businesses.

Wasn't that Republicans complaining about Trump ruining their romantic lives? I'm sure I remember some stories about people in the Trump administration being unable to date in DC because they'd get to "So what do you do?" and find that nobody wants anything to do with them.

Ah yes, I remember when they nearly torpedoed the career of the young lady seeing Matt Gaetz. Very normal behavior to do to a colleague seeing another from the other side of the aisle!

The economy was going as it was no matter who was in charge. He also tanked the economy by his bungling of the Covid response.

and the Supreme Court got rid of one of D.C's most ridiculous gun control laws.

Which Gun control law was that?

That's not evil. As for your claim that Biden doesn't have dementia, are you living under a rock or are you just high?

Evidence is a good thing. Donnies tweets; fox comments or some trumpests comments on the Net are not proof. Research is a good thing. Being spoon fed......not so much.
