Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

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.

Its just more that its probably related to his mental decline with age, considering he's be older than the average life expectancy of an american. This may further hinder his ability as a leader over the next 4 years - which I think is a valid concern for both sides left and right, and that losing the ability to criticise your own leader essentially means losing your ability to have a say beyond a binary choose (democrats or republicans).

I don't like people bringing this to an ableist perspective because there are always going to be things disabled people are unable to do, ie you wouldnt want a blind crane operator.

(Little side now down here but anyone else see he's requested official events take place before 8pm, theoretically because he is sundowning? Like this man has control over and is currently bombing cities day by day yet is hardly able to say awake as long as some citizens work in a single shift.)

Pps, I didn't compare anything to trump here cause I have a much longer paragraph to rant about him that wasn't really related, but I want to give context that I'm about as far from a right wing supporter as can be

I appreciate your response and agree he has some downsides.
