Trump should drop out, he's too old, has the dementia, cheated on his pregnant wife, is a rapist, a racist, and so far has 34 felonies. Very unfit to lead our country.

Which younger fascist would they replace Trump with? I vote for Mark Robinson from NC, a black white supremacist. Because nothing matters anymore.

So if I have my facts in order; felons and the senile are not only allowed but cheered on for our next leader. Sorry America look up from your phone and see with your eyes how our way of life is going to keep getting worse until major change happens. It is not as simple as a battle between two parties. Our way of government has been compromised.

It’s tragic that America is so polarized and propagandized with misinformation (myself included), that I think it’s going to have to learn the hard lessons of fascism.

Well then there's good news Biden just dropped out

You know he’s gonna wake up tomorrow and forget that he dropped out, and we’re gonna have to do this all over again.

The grandson of President Eisenhower who is the name for Camp David is a bit younger than them too.

Both are older than the state of Israel, FFS.

So was every US president except Obama during their term.

It only shows how much of a construct Israel is, as opposed to a representative of the actual people living there.

Yes, but the point is we are now in 2024. All those other presidents are either dead or retired.

If Joe Biden didn't exist, we would have to invent him.

Joe Biden was the old white conservative to balance out a slightly less conservative black president.

Also, when he served as VP, Cheney was 20 years younger than than Trump is now. Wrap your head around that.

He played the sax 🎷 on TV to get elected and then had sex in the oval office with that intern. Ahhh those were more innocent times.

He's only accused of raping one woman and she wasnt under age.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

"suspected"

Not defending anything here but I don't think he's been formally accused

She told her friend about it at the time in 1978. Her story has never changed. She went public in 1999. The problem seems to be that before that in 1998 she didn't want to talk about it and denied the allegations.

For sure. Not defending our advising anyone, just pointing out he's never been officially charged or tried on it, out side of Congressional hearings

Remember the outrage! A president who didn't tell the truth about his sex life right away was unthinkable!

It's pretty funny

During the deposition, Clinton was asked "Have you ever had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky, as that term is defined in Deposition Exhibit 1?" The judge ordered that Clinton be given an opportunity to review the agreed definition. Afterwards, based on the definition created by the Independent Counsel's Office, Clinton answered, "I have never had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky." Clinton later said, "I thought the definition included any activity by [me], where [I] was the actor and came in contact with those parts of the bodies" which had been explicitly listed (and "with an intent to gratify or arouse the sexual desire of any person"). In other words, Clinton denied that he had ever contacted Lewinsky's "genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks", and effectively claimed that the agreed-upon definition of "sexual relations" included giving oral sex but excluded receiving oral sex

This is the most lawyer thing I've read. Hahaha. I totally forgot about that.

Yes I abused my position of power to get head from a junior intern. But.... the rules are the rules, what you gonna do?
