There was more of this at the weekend.

Do you think Trump is going to cry the mentally impaired plea, and using this as proof of oncoming senility?

Let's make the presidential race an actual foot race. If I have to keep seeing two senile old fucks in the news who no one wants, at least make them do something funny, like running.

Biden has done nothing senile that I have seen. He did fall off his bike once.

Yep, though to be fair, his bike had toe clips/cages which are notoriously hard to get out of if you’re not used to them. I wonder if that was his main bike, or if he switches sometimes and forgot because of the photo op. Plenty of young people fall because of toe clips and that’s probably why they’re mostly passé.

I did it once when I was about 21/22 in the middle of a (deserted) road. Embarrassing but I reassured myself that it wasn't dumb.

Except I am not talking about the election. My point is regarding Trump trying to evade charges by claiming to be senile. Let's face it there is so much stuff that a lot is going to stick.

Even though this is old news a bit it still really might be in contention as the stupidest thing he has said and that is not an easy competition to win.

MeidasTouch showed more footage this from this weekend. I just didn't want to post YouTube channels. Forums tend to get prickly about promoting YouTube channels. I try to stick to websites where I can.

Keep allowing conservatives to lead and your kids will wind up dumb as hell, rich or not.

So Biden has a chronosphere?

[–] Syldon@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do not see your point. Biden has no charges laid against him. He also has nothing to do with the evidence against Trump.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think its in reference to Biden using the time machine to start Red Alert game events

Great, so both leading candidates are senile.

[–] yata@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Not really.
