It’s sad to see such a delusional old man…
He so old, he must be confused
How soon until he refers to Harris as “Hillary” or his other nemesis “Nancy”?
Hell he might throw a Niki in there! This whole situation has taken me from being low key terrified to can’t wait for what next.
So many N words for him to choose from…
That too. Only a matter of time before his old ass lets that one slip out on live TV.
This is so tiresome and annoying. His “bad” nickname for her is “smiling Kamala”. Really? That’s your big bad criticism?
I guess the unsmiling misery of the last 8 is supposed to be status quo now?
Trump’s nicknames have always been at a fourth grade level. It appeals to people who don’t read higher than a fourth grade level.
People will hear how he describes it and then see her and realize it isn’t crazy at all, it’s really friendly and welcoming. You can tell she’s really excited and enthusiastic about the job she has ahead of her.
It’s about coming for whatever she’s doing and being as harsh about it regardless of truth or context. They love a good misogynistic pile on.
She’s just imagining all the Venn diagrams she’ll have to work with.
Literally the second most charming thing ive ever seen from a presidential canidate.
The first was Bernie with his Birdie in Portland.
Trump would be crazy to try and debate her.
So, he probably will. Good times.
No way his handlers let him
No he won’t. He’s already doing a cop out saying he will only debate her if Fox hosts and moderates… Which I believe is impossible since the agreed networks (one of them isn’t Fox) have already been agreed
Fox is also an entertainment network, not a news network, as they themselves have claimed.
It’s ABC hosting. What the hell is going to make that happen?
Trump is already acting like this previous arrangement doesn’t exist and “challenged” her to debate on Fox yesterday.

Cool. Keep fighting ghosts.
Why would he? In his fantasy world, Biden is his easy opponent, he’s perfectly innocent and not a convicted criminal at all, he is actually the smartest person alive, instead of just the smartest person he’s ever been. Why would he join us in reality when his imaginary happy place that’s shared by millions of FOX viewers is so much more attractive?
Biden is his easy opponent
Was he though? Maybe now but he did win in 2020…
Trump seems to think so, considering how he’s already finding excuses why he can’t debate her. And not just like he was preemptively finding excuses for losing before the last debate.
This time he’s crapping his pants because Biden’s style was politely waiting his turn until Trump finished and then presenting his version of one of the 50 false statements Trump had delivered in rapid-fire mode before.
So far, Harris gives the impression that she’ll go straight for Trump’s felones.
just the smartest person he’s ever been
He’s not even that. His brain is clearly deteriorating.
Good luck trying to convince his brain that.
Give me some 1940s German Tanker chocolate, a bottle of Kentucky bourbon, and a trash bag full of cocaine. I can garuntee you he will gain enough lucidity to recognize that fact, he will also most certainly die while feeling real fucken good.
Sometimes, when people get older, they get a little confused. It happens. Donald, he’s getting up there, and maybe he’s just feeling a little confused again. Like that time he mixed up Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi.
Maybe he should drop out of the race, let someone a little younger and more aware take over.
Awareness is in very short supply on the right at the moment.
Yes, but I do wonder if he did step down would the GOP recieve the same invigoration the Dems appear to be receiving from a different contender.
zero change considering the republican party is trump’s party after everyone but the trump cult fled.
I don’t think he can because the RNC already happened making him the party’s nomination. The DNC hasn’t happened yet so the Democrats were able to switch candidates before they meet to nominate.

I was mostly just mocking him, but to take your question seriously… I don’t know. I don’t think it would help the GOP at this point, since Vance would most likely get the nomination, as Trump’s running-mate.
I don’t think anyone else in the party can draw nearly the same support as Trump, either. Not in the party itself, or from the broader American electorate. Nikki Haley was the only candidate that could possibly do that, but Haley being handed the nomination at the 11th hour would be seen as a Deep-State RINO coup against the dear leader, so she’d loose the base.
I think it’d also depend somewhat on the nature of his leaving the race. If he was successfully assassinated, that would likely turn the whole election on it’s head. Not necessarily in a way that would get Vance elected, but it would change the dynamics, and the electoral math, in ways we can’t predict. We thought the shooting would hand Trump the Presidency, but nobody even cared. Who knows what would happen if that shot was a couple inches closer. If Trump got sick, injured, or had some sort of catastrophic performance like Biden at the debate? I don’t think that would help the GOP in November, either.
As for him willingly stepping down, as Biden did, for the good of the nation… Lol, no. He’s not doing that.
Edit: minor grammar corrections.
Bitch too old, I’m not sure he has the cognition to grasp the new reality.
I don’t think it’s too far fetched at all to entertain the idea that Biden didn’t catch COVID, that the story was fabricated to allow a clean transition to a new candidate. The magnitude of lie and manipulation isn’t shit relative their other tactics.
If one assumes all politicians are selfish, evil liars until proven otherwise and understands the processes of the system then one can often predict the future. And, most everyone will hate them for it until they’re dead.
Why do people love conspiratorial thinking so much? Do you know how many people would have to be in on this? And how many you’d have to trust not to blab? And how hard it would be for them to keep a huge secret? Even if you were right about predicting the future (and you’re not), someone would have to gamble on all of this. You ever notice how with very few exceptions crazy shit like this doesn’t fail and come out - which statistically should happen all the fucking time unless everyone is supremely competent.
Sorry, friend, but no this is completely far fetched and if you’d ever worked for the government you’d fall over laughing at the idea. If anyone was this good, they sure as hell don’t work for the government.
Human minds evolved to spot patterns. This was very useful for identifying predators and prey back in the savannas of Africa.
Now people can put a pizza in the oven and use that powerful pattern matching to imagine incredibly stupid bullshit like this guys take above.
Why do people love conspiratorial thinking so much?
Because the well reasoned ones are often proven true in a few decades. During Trump we had truth in months. But, typically the President can follow the script.
Do you know how many people would have to be in on this?
Four: controller, media content, doctor, and spouse.
Do you know how easy it is to deceive the masses? Neolibs aren’t nearly as far ahead of the MAGA cult as they like to believe.
Covid was never even part of the conversation. No one cared. You’d think someone who could mastermind this brilliant plan could also predict no one would fucking care.
It’s not some brilliant plan. It’s really fucking simple: Provide a dignified excuse to break tradition and break the opposing narrative.
The dignity of the Office must be preserved.
.dev? You’ve disposable income. Ante up, then.
It’s not some brilliant plan
It’s not a plan at all. It’s some nonsense a couple idiots online dreamed up.
Biden didn’t mention COVID when he withdrew.
.dev? You’ve disposable income. Ante up, then.
I’m in the Midwest, not Silicon Valley, and I’ve been out of work for four months. My retirement savings is all but gone. I’m not in a position to ante up, but if you have any leads on a lead/senior Java (or anyone willing to give me a chance on something else) dev position believe me I’m all fucking ears.
After I got good at one thing I got good at another. My work situation got much better as soon as I brought those two things together. It took three to have control over which projects I worked on.
But, right now, none of that matters. You can’t invest into five or six years from now while you’re worried about tomorrow.
I don’t have a lead and I’m not sure how I can help. But, if you’ve an idea of how I can assist, now or in the future, HMU.
I appreciate that, genuinely. I’ll be fine. I’ll find something. I’m working in picking up AWS now. Probably have to get better at a front end framework. I haven’t done front end since Bootstrap was a thing, other than code reviews.
Because the well reasoned ones are often proven true in a few decades
Ok, but what about this one?
Don’t care, Biden’s out.
The broader public don’t care. Biden could have dropped out because his ice cream was too cold and people would be cool with it.
They’d hated the idea of him stepping down. Now they love it.
They care. And, it’s about good and wholesome things. But, they haven’t yet reasoned out how effectively act upon it.
They’d hated the idea of him stepping down.
Bullshit.
This is called gaslighting.
Everybody had been calling for him to step down, so it’s you attempting to gaslight.
Its also not too far fetched for him to catch covid. I’ve caught it twice in the last 12 months despite boosters and meeting much less people and being responsible. For me, it was a sniffle, for him probably a good deal worse and he might have realise his physical fitness is worse than he thought, especially after the debate and the reaction to it. Nothing like some illness to show us were not infallible, even when potus.
Its also not too far fetched for him to catch covid.
I agree. My point is that humans greatly overestimate that which favors themselves. We don’t know the truth. We may never. And, the masses are severely underestimating the probability that it’s one big lie.
It’s not that I don’t care about you personally. But, your personal anecdote is far from the data required to back your claim. I’m not asking you to dig up data. I already know the media isn’t reporting the epidemic anymore. It just doesn’t make much sense to support your statement in that way.
I think the better question is: Why does it MATTER if it was a lie or not? Who exactly got harmed if Biden needed an excuse to back out to save his own ego? Whether Biden actually had Covid or not changes almost nothing
It matters to them and others like them because if Biden and the Democratic party were lying about Biden having Covid it’s a really lame soundbite Maga turds can use to rationalize all of the hypocritical lies and nonsense Rebublicans spout whenever they open their mouths.
Even though deep down they know, they can’t admit it to themselves because their entire personality hinges on being Maga (as you see with all of the tacky shit they wear and buy to make their homes a joke) and if they accept the reality that Trump and his cultists are pieces of shit it means they are pieces of shit, and that’s an even harder pill to swallow than the fact Trump attempted a coup.
“Trump lied about being involved with Project 2025? Oh yeah? Well Biden lied about being sick!!!”
Because being involved with destroying democracy and making it possible for a lot of people to die by Isreali-style genocide is the same as lying about having a cold, even if Biden was lying.
What’s next? Taking multiple weeks of time off from performing Presidential duties running America multiple times to go play golf?
Oh, that was Trump.
Our government lies to us regularly. But, the people won’t even accept the possibility of a small one such as this. They’ve got to walk before they can run.
And those of you focussing on whether or not covid was an excuse/lie are on the extreme other end of the isle when the details of whether or not he lied about Covid make absolutely ZERO difference on the current situation. People in power lie, holy shit, life shattering revelation there!
So, the tactics you decided to go with were repetition and minimization? At least do this stupid thing well. Learn your logical fallacies and make more purposeful use of them.
Lmao username checks out I guess
My personal anecdote was not proof. It was letting you know that its common without data.
I dont thinknit was a lie. If it was, it was a pretty pointless one.
Youre clutching at straws and when you are askibgbfor evidence, but not asking, while spouting conspiracy theories, you don’t make a good argument for anything.
I appreciate that you responded eight days later.
Federation issues it seems. I am getting your response now, another 7 days later.
A week delay makes meaningful participation impossible. As I’m on .world, my best guess is that a solution is best initiated by your instance’s moderators. If you’ve not already then you should find the means to report.
The problem is world, I understand. Its too full. So its slow to federate with all others.
Thanks, but I prefer the concept of distribution, so happy to converse with all the other instances rather than just world.
Every word out of the farting orange clown’s mouth is a lie and your panties are in a bunch over whether or not Biden has/had COVID? The guy lied for 4 god damned years about an election being stolen. You’re worried about the reason he dropped out of a race that everyone said he was too old for in the first place so he could transition the job smoothly? Lol.
The magnitude of the lie? Hahahah. Jesus.
Dude, you really gotta take a step back and rethink your life and get some perspective. You’re gonna be one of those “hustlers”/“go-hards” that works 40 years for the same company at the same position without taking a sick day or vacation day. When you retire instead of a bonus or lifetime recognition award they’re gonna give you the same company branded coffee mug and lens cleaner rag they give out at trade shows.
Spot on - those lense cleaner rags aren’t going to give themselves away.
This is called a red herring.
Username checks out.
What you are doing is a red herring. I assume because you have never rebuttal.
This is called projection.
Can’t wait for gaslighting!
Quality trolls would’ve combined at least two logical fallacies into one sentence. This isn’t even a decent quality echo chamber. Good enough for government work, I guess. It surely seems effective. But, it’s very high maintenance to sustain.
He totally went there elsewhere in this thread 😂
^ bruh hasn’t heard that trump already picked a running mate.
Refusing to acknowledge reality is a common theme for maga.
They all cheered at the convention when someone said Obama is secretly still in control of the WhiteHouse.
The RNC is basically the party of conspiracy theories through and through.
I’m remembering a trump tweet while he was in the white house complaining about the deep state doing something and all I could think is “You’re the freaking president, you are the deepstate you bafoon!”
Also for those with dementia.
Lot of overlap there.
Personality Disorders helps too
Old Sleepy Don rambles incoherently about those competent presidents, Obama and Biden, even if they aren’t running. We need a debate ASAP to see how Harris chews Old Don Poorleone up and spits him out.
Donnie the Dotard doesn’t know what’s going on.
He hasn’t figured it out yet…
He’s too old to comprehend
