It's a "joke". And this is the performative TFG that we know. He leans in these "contraversies" and somehow came out un-harmed.

Yes. We are totally disgusted by it (rightfully so). But non-partisan and MAGA laughs it off and think we are taking the issue too seriously.

If you told me any presidential candidate do or say any of the numerous crazy things that TFG did, I would say no way. But he "survived" all of that. That's why our politics has become deeply toxic since TFG showed up in 2015.

I might have agreed with some issues with republicans before 2015. Nowadays, I simply cannot agree with any of it. All of it is formed by hatred and control.

It's increasingly partisan, but that's because I cannot find any common grounds with the republican party today, where I would have been able to before 2015.

The Blue wall (Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania) is still looking a very viable path for Kamala right now though. How will the "joke" and Trump's response sit with the over 400,000 Porto Rican's in Pennsyvannia (this state is looking very right and Kamala is looking good in Wisconsin and Michigan right now)?

unless they are physically unwell. A healthy 80 year old won't be stumbling around like that. They may approach it more slowly, but they don't look drunk. He's not even a healthy 80 year old.

Remember, Joe Biden rides bikes.

He thinks he's trolling but he's just keeping attention on the "island of garbage" comment and reminding everyone - especially Puerto Ricans and other Latino people - that it's not a joke. You don't recover from a bad joke by trying to make a bigger joke of it.

the Turd's difficulty in ambulating; his horrendous depth perception. The Turd can’t judge the location of the door handle, he totally missed grasping it and almost fell on his fat ass. The Turd has an obvious serious neurologic condition readily observable by even laymen. Any neurosurgeon and any neurologist would easily make such a diagnosis. After hearing the Turd speak on this videotape, every neuro-psychiatrist and neuro-psychologist would also confirm such a diagnosis. The Turd is mentally fucked-up!
