My favorite quotes-

worker- "You work for us."
Joe- "I don't work for you"

random women- *talks*
Joe- "shush it."

Joe- "don't be a horse's ass, I'll slap you"

Joe- "I'm making the AR-14s illegal"

ROFL... what's an AR-14? I've heard of 15's and 10's, must be some hoity toity thing.


Gun store clerk: "Afternoon, how can I help you?"

Customer: "I just need a stripped lower for an AR-14. You got any of those in stock?"

Gun store clerk: "Ah, I think the covfefe shop down the street has a few on hand."

Yeah it's pretty funny. Can't wait for the debates.

I'm really divided on Biden: on the one hand, he says dumb and funny things, but on the other it doesn't seem kosher to laugh at a clearly deteriorating dementia patient who has no business trying to hold any sort of public office.

In a way I feel the same. I think Biden has been a clear sociopath all his career – close to being a criminal fraud. And yet at this point in history I can't even watch the clips of his "gaffes" because he's clearly a deteriorating individual with damaged cognitive ability. It's like making fun of someone with mental retardation. He just needs to be removed from the public stage.

Saw a joking image where the line was basically that the Dems are making him run against his will, and he'll have an "accident" once he wins and makes Clinton his VP. It's one of those things you laugh at initially, then slowly descend into despair as the posibility sinks in.

It's been suggested that Reagan was getting forgetful at the end of his eight-year term, but whether that is typical media-lying about an anti-leftist I don't know.

However, if Biden were elected, he would be the same age at the beginning of his first term as Regan was at the end of his second. (Reagan was only 69 when he was elected; Biden is now 77, and Bernie is 78.)

Reagan was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s five years after he left office. When he was in office, his doctors gave him a clean bill of health.

During his re-election campaign he was widely perceived (including by his son) as having bumbled in his debate with Walter Mondale, which was the beginning of the public speculation about whether he might be going senile. Of course he still won the election.

Very good article here: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ronal ... s-disease/

It seems like Reagan in ‘84 is comparable to Biden in 2020 or Trump in 2016. Not sick, just old. People don’t appreciate how severe clinical dementia is. Yes, you can still function in society with dementia, but there is a long way to fall between the mental performance of the average 65 year old and the mental performance of someone in the early stages of dementia.

Reagan got through 84-88 just fine. No reason to think Biden couldn’t manage it as well.

Are you sure you hadn't meant to type Trump?
