The alarming mental decline of Donald J. Trump -- watch this space
candide replied to Jingthing's topic in Political Soapbox
As I wrote already, this is not new: For example: - In a July 4, 2019, speech, Trump said that during the American Revolutionary War, the Continental Army "took over the airports" from the British.[18] - Trump appeared unsteady while walking down a ramp at the United States Air Force Academy in 2020. - He also had difficulty raising a glass of water to his mouth. These episodes raised questions about his health.[19] - In another incident in October 2023, Trump referred to Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán as "the leader of Turkey", and said that Orbán shares a border with Russia, which neither Turkey nor Hungary does.[20] - During the course of the 2024 primary campaign, Trump's mistakes included confusing Nikki Haley for Nancy Pelosi, claiming he was running against Barack Obama, and fearing the nation may enter World War II.[21] - In June 2024, while praising his own performance on a cognitive test administered in 2018, Trump "confused the name of his former White House physician" who had administered the test.[22] - Also in June 2024, Trump said that his longtime acquaintance Joan Rivers had told him that she had voted for him in the 2016 election, although Rivers had died in September 2014.[23] In September 2024, Trump said the audience "went crazy" for him at the presidential debate the preceding week, although the debate had no audience.[24][10] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_and_health_concerns_about_Donald_Trump -

Accusing Dems of downplaying the mental decline of Biden has been a popular MAGA claim. And now, they are doing exactly what they accuse others of having done, and are downplaying Trump's mental decline! What about those sharks around the boat! 🤣 -

And you STILL have nothing. It's you who made a claim, it's your duty to prove it. And not to try the lame trolling tactic of asking others to disprove your baseless claim. A few readings for you starting with the "leftist" Forbes. https://www.forbes.com/sites/michelatindera/2020/10/22/how-the-bidens-earned-167-million-after-leaving-the-white-house/ https://www.businessinsider.com/joe-biden-net-worth-lifestyle-real-estate-family-wealth-assets-2020-1#forbes-estimates-that-as-of-june-2021-biden-and-his-wife-jill-are-collectively-worth-8-million-some-of-that-comes-from-his-federal-pension-3 https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/politics/a31265187/joe-biden-net-worth/

China Accuses U.S. of COVID-19 Origins in Escalating War of Words
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The death rate per capita was higher among non-vaccinated people than vaccinated people. As antivax beliefs were more diffused among Republican voters, it also resulted into a higher death rate per capita among Trump voters than among Dem voters. -
I did not claim he solved it, I claimed that he campaigned on the promise to solve it quickly.

BMs did not campaign, claiming they would quickly solve these issues. Trump did!

A Facebook post! I watched the vid, it was about medicare fraud which was already known before DOGE, for example the IG report I linked. Not about unknown fraud found by DOGE. So you are claiming they found a significant amount of fraud and you are not able to provide any link to a reliable source (text) which can be checked. It seems you are not even able to mention precisely which fraud they found! 😆

This is old stuff. Not found by DOGE. 🤣 There's also an IG report about it from 2024. The IG also mentioned that a system upgrade was necessary, but the system upgrade would cost much more than the cost of fraud. https://oig.hhs.gov/reports/all/2024/health-care-fraud-and-abuse-control-program-report-fiscal-year-2023/ So which massive fraud has been found by DOGE? (Your claim) 🙂

Beijing Considers Fentanyl Concessions to Ease U.S. Trade Tensions
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
An excellent explanation of the role of China in Fentnyl supply, with an overview of the evolution of China's policies on this matter. It's a video interview but there's a transcript for people like me who don't want to spend too much time watching a video. https://www.brookings.edu/articles/the-fentanyl-pipeline-and-chinas-role-in-the-us-opioid-crisis/
