The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Trump wouldn't even know the name Francois Mitterrand. He would not even know he was president long before Macron. Or where France is.

I take the grandpa that sometimes has those name hick-ups then the grandpa with the swastika armlet.

I am not for the US so it does not apply to me… but yes I would also take Biden. He is still ok I guess. The problem is that 5 years down the pipe he’s shape will deteriorate even further.

The US has had a puppet presidency at least twice that I can remember: Woodrow Wilson after his stroke, and Reagan when he went senile in office.

You might be forgetting Trump, which by all evidence was just Putin wearing a decaying pig death mask.

I like that you interpreted it as hick-ups, as if it were a mistake/fuck-up made by a hick, lol

As a hick, I assure you he ain't. He just acts folksy like so many other politicians.
