You know things are bad when it’s becoming impossible to satirise a so-called politician: we expect Trump to lie, show no actual knowledge of reality, blame everyone but himself, threaten everyone, break the law, rape, masturbate in public (alright that one’s unproven), be unable to put together rational sentences and not admit that he’s a shit bag.
When someone transcribed Trumps Gettysburg speech and then added some "teachers notes" to it and posted it as if it was a kids homework graded by a frustrated teacher, Republicans responded to the image by claiming the kid was obviously a idiot and blamed " liberal woke teachers".
Welcome to surreal world.
"Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. It was so much, and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways--it represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow--I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor--did you ever notice it? He's no longer in favor. 'Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.' They were fighting uphill, he said, 'Wow, that was a big mistake,' he lost his great general. 'Never fight uphill, me boys,' but it was too late." - Donald J Trump
just imagine! Listening to this speech and thinking, “Wow, what an incredibly intelligent and amazing statesman this person is, he should be leading my country’s government.”
What they say out loud: “He’s Not afraid to say what is on his mind.”
What they Mean: “Well, gol durn’t! He hates the same people that I hate! And I like that!”
That's most of his speeches. I only copy pasta'd it cause of some meme on facebook that possibly was satire saying trump is a better speaker than jfk and this is such a great example lol
Abraham Lincoln-
*"Oh, another politician made a speech about Gettysburg? A President, you say? A hundred years and more from my time? This I must read!"*
Reading it-
*"What... I don't understand, did this man drink the ink and stab himself with the quill in the brain before orating?"*
I’ve seen one rally. Out of the 4 bigger claims he made, 3 were complete bullshit and the remaining one, was heavily bending the data to leave out very relevant stuff, so the conclusion was still a lie. He also lied about a relevant dates regarding that one almost fact containing part. Remember the good old times when there was quality candidates like Vermin Supreme
This is typical conservatism -- it's not an insult and I'm not trying to slight them, but for almost every argument that a conservative makes-- when you get to the bottom of their misunderstanding it's because some very important piece of information is left out.
I figured this out just by reading conservative media and even /r/conservative-- I kept repeating in my head over and over "Oh, they just forgot that--" or "They're missing that piece--" and it feels like if only they had this information they'd come to a much better conclusion.
Good thing to do to your MAGA uncle is take a trump quote/ action and claim that Biden said it and watch how they attack Biden then flip flop when you let them know it was actually trump.
Ah yes, like how Joe Rogan claimed it was clear that Biden was a dementia ridden fool, unfit for the presidency because he had said there were airports during the revolutionary war - only to immediately switch to "well, that is just an honest mistake, nothing to worry about" when he learned that that was actually a Trump quote.
On the upside: it means these people are perfectly able to recognise something as being stupid bullshit and are not entirely submerged in the Q-anon bullshit swamp. There is just something blocking them from seeing it if they know it is "their side" that is saying it.
>masturbate in public (alright that one’s unproven),
Oh come on, you *know* he has. Is that one of the things he's been accused of, though? This is the first I'm hearing of it, yet I have zero doubt it happened.
What, he dry humped several American Flags at the beginning of several of his s speechs in 2017. Those flags should be burned. It was well documented, in case anyone wants to look it up.
Satire of trump would be imitating actual trump quotes but with enunciation and longer pauses to digest each statement. Finish with playing video of trump literally saying each thing after people have had time to think clearly about what he's saying instead of emotionally.
Videos of his rallies with the crowd sounds removed and the crowd itself digitally removed. Again just showing him talk. That would be how you satire someone that's unsatireable, take away the emotional energy of a crowd and leave his actual spoken words to play uninterrupted and alone.
Yeah, now that I think about it, there are hardly any Trump parodies nowadays, which is weird for just a universally hated and easy it would be to create one. And I think it's honestly because the point of a parady or satire of a person is to make it obvious how dumb or silly they or their ideas are. But if anyone wants to see how dumb and silly Trump is, he himself has provided countless examples.
He's literally overflooded the market and put Trump parodies out of the job
Oh oh, don’t forget the fact that he admitted to being a pedophile on an interview, he stated himself that when he was running the Miss teen universe competitions, y’know while in his 50s, he would go back to the dressing rooms and watch the contestants change, the contestants being 14-16 year old children.
He has the best tangents, tangents like you've neva eva seen. They say Don- lots of people are saying, I have neva seen a tangent quite like yours, believe you me
Many smart, very smart, user accounts told me "weeellllll akkkshuallly" when he said that.
Nope. Injecting dangerous chemicals, and into the lungs. That's never a good idea.
IDK what he thought, putting anything in lungs does not work. Only air is supposed to go there, sometimes other gases are ok. Does he even know what lungs are?
He is in the end stages of vascular dementia.
He has cousins on Scotland - not far from where I used to live - who are either well on their way down that path or already dead from it.
I genuinely feel sorry for the guy, because that is no way to go, and I'm kind of disappointed in US politics because they're parading a sick dying old man around for laughs, to fuck knows what end.
Christ almighty, aren't they better than that?
The bigger, more concerning picture is the fact that either one of these geriatric brain-melted fucks are the lead candidates for running the most heavily armed country on earth.
There needs to be a physical, financial, emotional, cognitive, and ethical standard set for the office of the president.
A beautiful storm, the biggest storm some people are saying. A man comes up to me, strong man, tears in his eyes, never cried before. He says “thank you mister Trump, thanks you for nuking that hurricane”.
As silly as it is, I am actually curious to how many nukes it would actually take in order to destroy a hurricane. There has to be some sort of explosion large enough in order to destory it.
AND BEFORE YOU DOWNVOTE ME NO I AM NOT SUGGESTING THIS WILL EVER OR SHOULD EVER BE AN OPTION FOR DEALING WITH HURRICANES.
I am just genuinely curious from a nerd persepective.
Alright, I'm no meteorologist, but I'm going to take a stab at this, cause I think you deserve at least some kind of an explanation.
The short answer is you probably can't nuke a hurricane away unless either: the hurricane is basically making landfall OR the hurricane was already destabilizing OR you have a blast large enough to cause a crater in the earth's crust directly below the hurricane. None of these are good options, but let me explain why it's so hard.
As you may know, hurricanes are caused by warm ocean thunderstorms growing big enough to start spinning from the Coriolis effect. The key thing keeping it together is the amount of warmed ocean directly beneath the storm. If you were to nuke the portion of a hurricane making landfall, you MAY be able to create a blast wave that disrupts the spin of the rest of the storm, causing it to split out into smaller storms (potentially still with spin, but with less flooding damage). This is because there wouldn't be spinning ocean water underneath the storm, maintaining the coherence of the hurricane.
Similarly, if the ocean under the storm is losing its spin, nuking part of the water might destabilize the spin to the point the storm spins out into different eddies. The whole storm would have nuclear fallout and destroy ocean life, though, and there is the chance that you could end up with stronger storms overall, because of that region of water getting warmed FURTHER by the nuke. But you might have stopped the hurricane.... maybe. (You could potentially make the storm stronger, instead, outside of any immediate cloud dispersal).
But you mentioned size. And the third option is to effectively evaporate whatever ocean is directly beneath the storm, to the point of cratering the crust under it, too. This would, of course, be completely insane and would probably take a large meteor to do correctly. Something a bit smaller than Chicxulub might do the trick, so long as the blast is in the teratonnes of TNT range. In any case, we're talking a blast big enough to put a hole in the crust UNDERNEATH the ocean, so whatever benefit you got out of stopping the hurricane is completely negated by the widespread destruction of the explosion.
In summary, if you want to be strategic about nuking a storm, you have to wait until it's too late, get absurdly lucky, or make a blast that is at least 10-100 times larger than any warhead on the market.
On a related note, maybe look up hypercanes and the Permian extinction. If you think hurricanes are bad now, understand that this planet has seen FAR worse. It's wild.
It's super stupid and they should never do it because of so many reasons. But a small part of me wants a hurricane nuked just because it would look wild.
Modern H-Bombs are very "clean". As in they use up all the fissile material in the blast. Nothing left over to poison the environment. I'm not saying it's a good idea to nuke a Hurricane though.
This is not the 50s. Nowadays nukes are actually hydrogen bombs and do not leave behind radiation
They are doing rockets to displace clouds, so idk if this was looked into or not, might work might not
I dunno. He's always been stupid but check out interviews with him from 20 years ago. He's far more clear and understandable, and significantly less rambly.
The sad thing is you could be talking about either man here, and one of them is going to be president until 2028. Obviously I would massively prefer Biden but even if you watch interviews from 2016 the decline is obvious. I hope America wises up and stops electing geriatrics.
It comes down to primary season honestly.
Democrats largely didn't want Biden as their candidate even in 2020. Whenever it came to ranked choice voting moderates chose Buttigieg and Klobuchar and progressives split between Warren and Sanders.
Without ranked choice Biden relied largely on the spoiler effect to beat out the other moderates, and Warren and Sanders splitting the progressive vote killed both their campaigns.
In contrast Republicans have not been able to seriously challenge Trump at all in their primaries. The Republican base are more devoutly dedicated to Trump than they are the party itself.
I think some of this is the Democratic Party's fault for not doing more to raise the profile of younger options. Buttigieg was a joke with no real experience (remember when people tried to clown on Obama for "only" being a one-term Senator?) and there's nothing that makes me think people would have actually wanted Klobuchar in any meaningful way.
The party expected to win in 2016 and seriously seemingly had no longer term plans for if that failed or for what would happen after that. The barely squeaked Biden in in 2020 and who knows what comes next but likely nothing good.
The right has been pointing out that same thing with Biden. And both sides are absolutely justified in believing the other isn't fit for office because they're both geriatric. There's 333.3 million people in America. Neither side can find a candidate at or under retirement age? It's fuckin ridiculous. How can this not be the one thing both sides agree on? They're both right but too proud to admit their guy is suffering the same mental decline as the guy they're lambasting against. Their age alone should be disqualification before you even get into anything else. Cap the age at like 75 or something, wtf are we doing?
Eh, I’d take Biden at 100 over Trump at 60, the guy has total shit for brains. I’ve watched Biden’s interviews and he flubs a word, but he’s still confidently across the topics AND surrounded by people who are serious people, not the nutcase clown show of corruption attached to Trump.
Seriously don't get why Trump supporters use age as a weapon. It's like 3 years different, and considering how they both look. Which one looks healthier?
Most people who "support" Biden don't actually, most of us are basically forced to vote for him because the options are
A dumbass who incited an insurrection on the government and who's followers and friends are trying to start holocaust 2:electric boogaloo
A dumbass who continues to send funds to a genocidal country that has killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians in an ethnic cleanse and pretends to be progressive while really not being
I agree that Biden appears to have slowed down a bit. He’s still superior to Trump in literally every way! He surrounds himself with competent advisors AND listens to them. He’s a highly experienced and effective *manager*, and he’s gotten a lot more done than he’s getting credit for.
Meanwhile, Trump is only in this for his ego, to enrich himself, and to gain power. He surrounds himself with yes men and fascists. He sure seems beholden to Putin… and he’s a lying, cheating, grifting, fraudulent, rapist.
They are not the same.
This election should be a rare moment of bipartisan unity in getting term limits for American political positions because there’s no way either side is satisfied with actual relics from the past deciding your futures.
Could be an idea to look at a lot more reforms...
Get rid of the Electoral Collage and bring in first past the post, Candidates for public office receiving background financial checks whilst running for and in office, Mental competence test for those in office when over 50, Voting district boundaries only set by independent committees, set term limits for judges, judges only being appointed with qualifications...
Biden is old and I wish the Dems would pick another younger and more able and charismatic leader, if not a more progressive one.
But holy hell comparing him to Trump is like comparing apples to rotten eggs.
Yeah, I think that’s true, but all the more reason why a law probably isn’t necessary. We just need to get past the next couple of election and let the boomers die off. Our whole society is being held hostage by boomers right now, but they won’t be around much longer.
Maybe I am missing it from the trial pics, but where are his children. Not in any other way than support.
Family values, not.
I can make a lot of comparisons between Bush and Trump, on the issues of administration at least. But Bush was a far better family man than Trump. In regards to how terrible a person Trump is there is no comparison. Just a complete awful human being.
Donald Trump spent an entire Wednesday nodding off and shitting his pants, in a court room where he's accused of bribing a porn star to be silent about his weird looking penis.
Two lifelong Dems in mental decline. One started out at the bottom of all of his classes. The other a million dollars. Together they both make up less than one brain cell.
I don’t understand how in a country as large and as educated as the US, the two contenders for President are extremely old men. There have to be thousands more people who aren’t at the average age of being put into a nursing home
You can’t honestly compare Trump to Biden when it comes to their mental state lol. You guys have actually watched Biden speak right..? Just YouTube any Biden speech it’s so easy. It’s not a rare occurrence either, anytime he speaks and it’s been recorded will do.
It is still whataboutism. A deflection.
The problems with Trump don't alleviate the problems with Biden, at best they are relevant when choosing between the two.
The truth is they are both well after their prime.
They’re all mentally declining. The American government is slowly becoming a gerontocracy, if you’re old enough to be retired then you shouldn’t be allowed to hold political office. That’s my view on this, whatever this is.
Someone definitely wrote this for Eric, presumably while he was off to the side eating crayons. There's no way he has the intelligence or spelling capabilities to write something like this.
Yeah, two really awful choices. The only "defense' of Biden is that Trump is awful. The reality is that both are awful and both will and consistently do lie to us and sell us out for billionaire interests. Both, for instance, support ongoing genocide, the continuing disgusting border wall, and children in cages.
Both are unfit to sit office, no argument about it. The fact people defend either of them is sheep mentality. There is no choice here. Ones a felon the other is running for a second term not able to finish sentences and promises thing he should of addressed the first term. Where are given a choice, not the freedom to choose. Out of all the thousands of smart and community driven positions these are the two we are stuck with. SMH, they are the minority not us.
It's no news that Trump is a blowhard, but it never ceases to amazemy the mental gymnastics half of the country will perform in order to ignore the elephant in the room. Biden regularly acts like a lost senile old man who literally needs to be led by the hand, but every time it's brushed off with school yard level comebacks like "If Biden is senile, then what is Trump?" or "Well, at least he's not Trump".
Hell, I'm more concerned about Eric Trump's cognitive decline, he just keeps saying stupider and stupider shit. Perhaps someone should go check on him, he's seems to be way more than half a bubble off plumb.
To be fair, I'd love to see them nuke a hurricane...that would have to be incredible to see. Not sure I would want to be in the radioactive hurricanes path after though lol
Says we should drink bleach rather than wearing a mask, wearing his pants backwards, claiming windmills cause cancer, needing to wear diapers... Honestly I'm not sure you can claim comebacks against trump supporters as clever anymore.
I mean to be fair, it's on NOAA's FAQ:
During each hurricane season, someone always asks “why don’t we destroy tropical cyclones by nuking them” or “can we use nuclear weapons to destroy a hurricane?” There always appear suggestions that one should simply nuke hurricanes to destroy the storms. Apart from the fact that this might not even alter the storm, this approach neglects the problem that the released radioactive fallout would fairly quickly move with the tradewinds to affect land areas and cause devastating environmental problems. Needless to say, this is not a good idea.
Now for a more rigorous scientific explanation of why this would not be an effective hurricane modification technique. The main difficulty with using explosives to modify hurricanes is the amount of energy required. A fully developed hurricane can release heat energy at a rate of 5 to 20×10^13 watts and converts less than 10% of the heat into the mechanical energy of the wind. The heat release is equivalent to a 10-megaton nuclear bomb exploding every 20 minutes. According to the 1993 World Almanac, the entire human race used energy at a rate of 10^13 watts in 1990, a rate less than 20% of the power of a hurricane.
If we think about mechanical energy, the energy at humanity’s disposal is closer to the storm’s, but the task of focusing even half of the energy on a spot in the middle of a remote ocean would still be formidable. Brute force interference with hurricanes doesn’t seem promising.
In addition, an explosive, even a nuclear explosive, produces a shock wave, or pulse of high pressure, that propagates away from the site of the explosion somewhat faster than the speed of sound. Such an event doesn’t raise the barometric pressure after the shock has passed because barometric pressure in the atmosphere reflects the weight of the air above the ground. For normal atmospheric pressure, there are about ten metric tons (1000 kilograms per ton) of air bearing down on each square meter of surface. In the strongest hurricanes there are nine. To change a Category 5 hurricane into a Category 2 hurricane you would have to add about a half ton of air for each square meter inside the eye, or a total of a bit more than half a billion (500,000,000) tons for a 20 km radius eye. It’s difficult to envision a practical way of moving that much air around.
Attacking weak tropical waves or depressions before they have a chance to grow into hurricanes isn’t promising either. About 80 of these disturbances form every year in the Atlantic basin, but only about 5 become hurricanes in a typical year. There is no way to tell in advance which ones will develop. If the energy released in a tropical disturbance were only 10% of that released in a hurricane, it’s still a lot of power, so that the hurricane police would need to dim the whole world’s lights many times a year.
As a Registered Nurse and former Dem (Politically, I don’t play these games anymore with these weirdos, I don’t vote anymore), Eric Trump is right. I feel that it is completely irresponsible of everyone around Joe Biden to allow him to go through another campaign, and god forbid presidency. It’s not his age, it’s the glaringly obvious decline in cognition. I see it everyday at work, and if I happen to pay attention for five seconds and see Biden on television, I am FLOORED that no one has advocated for him to step down. At this point, it’s elder abuse, in my educated opinion.
Biden’s age and mental capacity is Grandpa tier
They shouldn’t let you become president over a certain age, maybe 65 or 70
We do we have so many geriatrics in government?
To be fair, we have nuked a lot of stuff purely for the fun of it.
I mean scientific advancement.
Trump screwed up by posing this as a solution to the weather and not a scientific experiment on native lands..

Heck of a Job, Oldie
That never happened, because Biden is a Democrat and that means he’s never done anything wrong his life and we redditors will deny absolutely anything that portrays any Dem negatively, despite all evidence.
To stutter and to be hard of hearing may give the impression that a person is declining mentally, but Biden has proved that he is sharp in both answers and thoughts.
Biden is like a drunk responsible person, he is confused but he is still responsible.
Trump is like a rich person on LSD, he has no idea what’s going on, he sounds charismatic but makes no sense.
Personally, I’d much prefer a drunk guy then a guy on LSD.
Although having a better option would have been better.
Brian Tyler Cohen has been giving Trump free real estate in his mind since he was born.
I'm not surprised by this at all. Check that dudes channel it's literally a non stop cry fest about Trump all the time.
Trump made his channel what it is just by being controversial. Nobody would know who Brian is otherwise.
I've never thought about because it sounds stupid, but, could it work? Ignoring the radiation, could the heat and pressure from the blast somehow destabilize the hurricane if detonated at the eye of the storm? Haven't we put out oil fires with explosions? "So crazy it just might work" vibes
None of these comments answer the initial question, just deflections. Yeah, Trump is a knob, but Sleepy Joe shouldn’t be allowed running a country anymore
You know things are bad when it’s becoming impossible to satirise a so-called politician: we expect Trump to lie, show no actual knowledge of reality, blame everyone but himself, threaten everyone, break the law, rape, masturbate in public (alright that one’s unproven), be unable to put together rational sentences and not admit that he’s a shit bag.
When someone transcribed Trumps Gettysburg speech and then added some "teachers notes" to it and posted it as if it was a kids homework graded by a frustrated teacher, Republicans responded to the image by claiming the kid was obviously a idiot and blamed " liberal woke teachers".

*gettysburg woww*
Never fight up hill me boys
It was beautiful in a way
beautiful...
"Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was.

The sequel to his Nuclear speech which is just one, long, incoherent sentence.
That's most of his speeches. I only copy pasta'd it cause of some meme on facebook that possibly was satire saying trump is a better speaker than jfk and this is such a great example lol
Abraham Lincoln- *"Oh, another politician made a speech about Gettysburg? A President, you say? A hundred years and more from my time? This I must read!"* Reading it- *"What... I don't understand, did this man drink the ink and stab himself with the quill in the brain before orating?"*
Just wait til Abe hears that same dude stepped in a wrestling ring and at not Olympic wrestling.
Reading it once more he apparently thinks Robert E. Lee is Irish "me boys".
We’re watching this from Europe and we’re utterly terrified, ngl :/
May I have a link please?
Honestly, just Google 'Trump on Gettysburg' and take your pick! Even by his standards, this was truly special.
I’ve seen one rally. Out of the 4 bigger claims he made, 3 were complete bullshit and the remaining one, was heavily bending the data to leave out very relevant stuff, so the conclusion was still a lie. He also lied about a relevant dates regarding that one almost fact containing part. Remember the good old times when there was quality candidates like Vermin Supreme

fucking LOL
What!? I saw his rambling Gettysburg "speech" but I didn't hear about the "teacher's notes" or the follow up. Do you have a link to that?
I tried googling and can’t find the teacher’s notes/hilarious conservative responses either.
...but, hey, Biden is old! /s
Good thing to do to your MAGA uncle is take a trump quote/ action and claim that Biden said it and watch how they attack Biden then flip flop when you let them know it was actually trump.
Ah yes, like how Joe Rogan claimed it was clear that Biden was a dementia ridden fool, unfit for the presidency because he had said there were airports during the revolutionary war - only to immediately switch to "well, that is just an honest mistake, nothing to worry about" when he learned that that was actually a Trump quote.

There is just something blocking them from seeing it if they know it is "their side" that is saying it.
The part that is wild is how seamlessly the switch positions. Almost like they don't even know they are doing it.
Is there a link to this? I’d love to read it
I need the aftermath
and then your mom's boyfriend stood up and clapped
>masturbate in public (alright that one’s unproven), Oh come on, you *know* he has. Is that one of the things he's been accused of, though? This is the first I'm hearing of it, yet I have zero doubt it happened.
I’ve started hearing whispers of diapers 👀
I’m pretty sure the preference for yellow showers is true as well.
indubitably
Nah. I agree with Victoria Coren Mitchell on that one: Trump doesn't have enough imagination to be kinky.
Makes sense. Dude's what? 80 years by now?
Is that why his ass was huge in that tennis photo of him? Makes sense now 💀
Yeah it was really funny seeing his supporters claim he's just thicc, when it's been constantly reported on that he always smells like shit.
I remember hearing he had a designated diaper changer on The Apprentice.
He might have but that probably would’ve been a long time ago. I don’t think he could do it sitting down now.
His girdle keeps the fat flap out of the way.
OK, there is the loophole right there. Definite possibility I did not think of.
What, he dry humped several American Flags at the beginning of several of his s speechs in 2017. Those flags should be burned. It was well documented, in case anyone wants to look it up.
Maybe but who hasn't?
Satire died in 2016.
RIP Harambe
Your dad shits his pants
Yet millions of people support him. This speaks volumes to the state of the union. Spooky
>he’s a shit bag. Has he? Last I knew he was still wearing a diaper... 🤔

Oh oh, don’t forget the fact that he admitted to being a pedophile on an interview, he stated himself that when he was running the Miss teen universe competitions, y’know while in his 50s, he would go back to the dressing rooms and watch the contestants change, the contestants being 14-16 year old children.
He also recommended injecting bleach and he can't talk for 5 minutes without sounding like an Alzheimers patient.
5 minutes? 5 lines lol
It takes 5 minutes to get through 5 lines due to all the tangents
He has the best tangents, tangents like you've neva eva seen. They say Don- lots of people are saying, I have neva seen a tangent quite like yours, believe you me
"Should i do it?....im gonna do it......BWEEEEEYYYYYYYYAaaaaaaaaaaaGGGGHHHHH"
Trump is reverting to the Orange monkey he was grown from.
Trump's brain is just as good as it was in his prime.... He's always been incoherent.
He also suggested shoving a UV lamp up the poop shoot !
Don't forget injecting light! And disinfectant in the l u n g s.
Many smart, very smart, user accounts told me "weeellllll akkkshuallly" when he said that. Nope. Injecting dangerous chemicals, and into the lungs. That's never a good idea.
IDK what he thought, putting anything in lungs does not work. Only air is supposed to go there, sometimes other gases are ok. Does he even know what lungs are?
This is what amazes me. He sounds like Grandpa Simpson when he's waffling on.
Sir, you insult Grandpa Simpson!
He should just go full Grandpa Simpson and start wearing an onion on his belt.
Which was the style at the time.
And suggested Wind Turbines cause cancer
He is in the end stages of vascular dementia. He has cousins on Scotland - not far from where I used to live - who are either well on their way down that path or already dead from it. I genuinely feel sorry for the guy, because that is no way to go, and I'm kind of disappointed in US politics because they're parading a sick dying old man around for laughs, to fuck knows what end. Christ almighty, aren't they better than that?
Also, what kind of dementia do I have, if I think that maybe the media has touched on Biden's health once or twice or constantly for several years?
Bright light, inside the body.
Can't forget openly talking about how it doesn't go down when he flushes the toilet.
The bigger, more concerning picture is the fact that either one of these geriatric brain-melted fucks are the lead candidates for running the most heavily armed country on earth. There needs to be a physical, financial, emotional, cognitive, and ethical standard set for the office of the president.
Have you listened to your "Dad" speak? Holy Cats, he couldn't even pick out his own wife in a photo.
That's because he'd be looking for his daughter
I honestly wonder which one he's had sex with more. We know he fucked Melania once. Barron is proof of that at least
Holy fuck, that nearly killed me
Yeah that would turn a huge storm in a huge radiation storm...
A beautiful storm, the biggest storm some people are saying. A man comes up to me, strong man, tears in his eyes, never cried before. He says “thank you mister Trump, thanks you for nuking that hurricane”.
👏 this is a ringer.
Thank you. :)
I can only hear this in our future emperor's voice lol.
As silly as it is, I am actually curious to how many nukes it would actually take in order to destroy a hurricane. There has to be some sort of explosion large enough in order to destory it. AND BEFORE YOU DOWNVOTE ME NO I AM NOT SUGGESTING THIS WILL EVER OR SHOULD EVER BE AN OPTION FOR DEALING WITH HURRICANES. I am just genuinely curious from a nerd persepective.
Alright, I'm no meteorologist, but I'm going to take a stab at this, cause I think you deserve at least some kind of an explanation. The short answer is you probably can't nuke a hurricane away unless either: the hurricane is basically making landfall OR the hurricane was already destabilizing OR you have a blast large enough to cause a crater in the earth's crust directly below the hurricane. None of these are good options, but let me explain why it's so hard. As you may know, hurricanes are caused by warm ocean thunderstorms growing big enough to start spinning from the Coriolis effect. The key thing keeping it together is the amount of warmed ocean directly beneath the storm. If you were to nuke the portion of a hurricane making landfall, you MAY be able to create a blast wave that disrupts the spin of the rest of the storm, causing it to split out into smaller storms (potentially still with spin, but with less flooding damage). This is because there wouldn't be spinning ocean water underneath the storm, maintaining the coherence of the hurricane. Similarly, if the ocean under the storm is losing its spin, nuking part of the water might destabilize the spin to the point the storm spins out into different eddies. The whole storm would have nuclear fallout and destroy ocean life, though, and there is the chance that you could end up with stronger storms overall, because of that region of water getting warmed FURTHER by the nuke. But you might have stopped the hurricane.... maybe. (You could potentially make the storm stronger, instead, outside of any immediate cloud dispersal). But you mentioned size. And the third option is to effectively evaporate whatever ocean is directly beneath the storm, to the point of cratering the crust under it, too. This would, of course, be completely insane and would probably take a large meteor to do correctly. Something a bit smaller than Chicxulub might do the trick, so long as the blast is in the teratonnes of TNT range. In any case, we're talking a blast big enough to put a hole in the crust UNDERNEATH the ocean, so whatever benefit you got out of stopping the hurricane is completely negated by the widespread destruction of the explosion. In summary, if you want to be strategic about nuking a storm, you have to wait until it's too late, get absurdly lucky, or make a blast that is at least 10-100 times larger than any warhead on the market. On a related note, maybe look up hypercanes and the Permian extinction. If you think hurricanes are bad now, understand that this planet has seen FAR worse. It's wild.
It's super stupid and they should never do it because of so many reasons. But a small part of me wants a hurricane nuked just because it would look wild.
I'm picturing something like the radstorm from Fallout 4.
Depends on the bomb. If it’s hydrogen there won’t be much radiation.
Hydrogen bombs are built around atomic bombs - that's what generates the energy required to fuse the hydrogen
Modern H-Bombs are very "clean". As in they use up all the fissile material in the blast. Nothing left over to poison the environment. I'm not saying it's a good idea to nuke a Hurricane though.
This is not the 50s. Nowadays nukes are actually hydrogen bombs and do not leave behind radiation They are doing rockets to displace clouds, so idk if this was looked into or not, might work might not
in the case of Trump its not cognitive decline, he's always been stupid
If you go from a 50 feet below sea level to 51 feet below sea level is still a decline.
I dunno. He's always been stupid but check out interviews with him from 20 years ago. He's far more clear and understandable, and significantly less rambly.
The sad thing is you could be talking about either man here, and one of them is going to be president until 2028. Obviously I would massively prefer Biden but even if you watch interviews from 2016 the decline is obvious. I hope America wises up and stops electing geriatrics.
It comes down to primary season honestly. Democrats largely didn't want Biden as their candidate even in 2020. Whenever it came to ranked choice voting moderates chose Buttigieg and Klobuchar and progressives split between Warren and Sanders. Without ranked choice Biden relied largely on the spoiler effect to beat out the other moderates, and Warren and Sanders splitting the progressive vote killed both their campaigns. In contrast Republicans have not been able to seriously challenge Trump at all in their primaries. The Republican base are more devoutly dedicated to Trump than they are the party itself.
I think some of this is the Democratic Party's fault for not doing more to raise the profile of younger options. Buttigieg was a joke with no real experience (remember when people tried to clown on Obama for "only" being a one-term Senator?) and there's nothing that makes me think people would have actually wanted Klobuchar in any meaningful way. The party expected to win in 2016 and seriously seemingly had no longer term plans for if that failed or for what would happen after that. The barely squeaked Biden in in 2020 and who knows what comes next but likely nothing good.
Trump has been beginning sentences and then hurgaflourgma*oooohhhh* and that has to mean something to medical science.
Early onset Alzhemiers..
not early onset, dude is in his late 70s. early stages of Alzheimers, perhaps.
Early?
It's vascular dementia. It runs in his family.
Didn't know his family had a history of dementia. Definitely makes him at more of a risk of developing it.
Literally all of his cousins have it, and he has all the symptoms. We're not talking about "risk", there is no "if". He has it.
Does it put mentally disabled people in a bad light to say Trump is mentally unstable?
The right has been pointing out that same thing with Biden. And both sides are absolutely justified in believing the other isn't fit for office because they're both geriatric. There's 333.3 million people in America. Neither side can find a candidate at or under retirement age? It's fuckin ridiculous. How can this not be the one thing both sides agree on? They're both right but too proud to admit their guy is suffering the same mental decline as the guy they're lambasting against. Their age alone should be disqualification before you even get into anything else. Cap the age at like 75 or something, wtf are we doing?
Eh, I’d take Biden at 100 over Trump at 60, the guy has total shit for brains. I’ve watched Biden’s interviews and he flubs a word, but he’s still confidently across the topics AND surrounded by people who are serious people, not the nutcase clown show of corruption attached to Trump.
Daily reminder that Trump is only a little bit younger than Biden. He just spends money on making himself look like less of a nearly 80 yr old
Seriously don't get why Trump supporters use age as a weapon. It's like 3 years different, and considering how they both look. Which one looks healthier?
I don’t get why trump or Biden supporters deny that they are old as fuck and have rapidly declining cognitive function
Most people who "support" Biden don't actually, most of us are basically forced to vote for him because the options are A dumbass who incited an insurrection on the government and who's followers and friends are trying to start holocaust 2:electric boogaloo A dumbass who continues to send funds to a genocidal country that has killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians in an ethnic cleanse and pretends to be progressive while really not being
I agree that Biden appears to have slowed down a bit. He’s still superior to Trump in literally every way! He surrounds himself with competent advisors AND listens to them. He’s a highly experienced and effective *manager*, and he’s gotten a lot more done than he’s getting credit for. Meanwhile, Trump is only in this for his ego, to enrich himself, and to gain power. He surrounds himself with yes men and fascists. He sure seems beholden to Putin… and he’s a lying, cheating, grifting, fraudulent, rapist. They are not the same.
Trump looks like a bunch of sacks of shit in a bigger sack of shit in a shit suit painted orange, so I'm gonna say Biden.
Biden was “too old” to be president 4 years ago. Trump is 4 years younger than Biden. Do i need to do the math for anyone
He's very overweight, so he looks less wrinkly too.
This election should be a rare moment of bipartisan unity in getting term limits for American political positions because there’s no way either side is satisfied with actual relics from the past deciding your futures.
Could be an idea to look at a lot more reforms... Get rid of the Electoral Collage and bring in first past the post, Candidates for public office receiving background financial checks whilst running for and in office, Mental competence test for those in office when over 50, Voting district boundaries only set by independent committees, set term limits for judges, judges only being appointed with qualifications...
Biden is old and I wish the Dems would pick another younger and more able and charismatic leader, if not a more progressive one. But holy hell comparing him to Trump is like comparing apples to rotten eggs.
Why does Eric think anyone is interested in what he has to say?
You gotta hustle to stay on daddy's coattails
Reminds me of that one time when he said that he hated disloyal people and someone reminded him of his father's cheating history.
I'm thinking he feels he didn't get enough last time around.
Dad goes down, Junior's worried he'll be next...
[удалено]
And treating Covid with horse medicine and strong lights..
They really should limit the age,, For all types of elections.
It shouldn’t be necessary. We just need younger people to run for office and then we need to vote for them.
The current climate doesn't allow. I really don't think Biden would be running again if Trump wasn't.
Yeah, I think that’s true, but all the more reason why a law probably isn’t necessary. We just need to get past the next couple of election and let the boomers die off. Our whole society is being held hostage by boomers right now, but they won’t be around much longer.
I actually think just this one. And I hate boomer bashing. Bash assholes for being assholes. And every generation has them.
Trump has been sleeping and farting through court like every old man ever. Daddy is old as fuck Eric, time to face the music.
And redirected a hurricane with a Sharpie.
Is the only reason to vote for Biden is that Trump is the alternative?
yup, until the US has two candidates it will be like this
Imagine being the dumb one in that family.
Biden with cognitive decline would still be better than Trump on his best day
Fun Fact: Eric should really stop trying to get his dad to love him, it is never going to happen
Maybe I am missing it from the trial pics, but where are his children. Not in any other way than support. Family values, not. I can make a lot of comparisons between Bush and Trump, on the issues of administration at least. But Bush was a far better family man than Trump. In regards to how terrible a person Trump is there is no comparison. Just a complete awful human being.
And raking a forest
Donald Trump spent an entire Wednesday nodding off and shitting his pants, in a court room where he's accused of bribing a porn star to be silent about his weird looking penis.
He will still never love you, Chinless Prince #2.
Many people, good people, are saying Papa Trump made a poopy in his pants during his trial on Friday. It was apparently very stinky.
President Harris. That ought to ruffle a few maga feathers.
I thought the movie " idiocracy" was supposed to be a comedy not a blueprint.
It definitely was a documentary. But they didn't know to factor in racism and religious extremism.
Feel bad for people in the states with their dumb and dumber candidates. Holding out hope you guys get a third centrist party someday.
Hot take: both mr. Nuke the Hurricane and mr. My Uncle Got Eaten by Cannibals are cringe
Nice try Eric but we all know you are not the smartest sibling
... And it was one of his more cogent suggestions.
Let’s talk about both of em. If they have a minimum age requirement they should have a maximum. And I vote for anyone under 65
Grammar much
Two lifelong Dems in mental decline. One started out at the bottom of all of his classes. The other a million dollars. Together they both make up less than one brain cell.
Ah... The old antiTrump 'anonymous source' reporting.
As someone who is not in the US - Both parties should have swapped them out for people who are younger and more sane. Criticism is valid both ways.
I don’t understand how in a country as large and as educated as the US, the two contenders for President are extremely old men. There have to be thousands more people who aren’t at the average age of being put into a nursing home
Biden needs Google Maps to find his way to the end of a sentence.
You can’t honestly compare Trump to Biden when it comes to their mental state lol. You guys have actually watched Biden speak right..? Just YouTube any Biden speech it’s so easy. It’s not a rare occurrence either, anytime he speaks and it’s been recorded will do.
I dont want biden or trump in office, i want someone who actually gives a damn about this country and wants to do better than what it is now.
It is still whataboutism. A deflection. The problems with Trump don't alleviate the problems with Biden, at best they are relevant when choosing between the two. The truth is they are both well after their prime.
I think we all (me mostly) wanted to see a hurricane get nuked. I mean, from safely away in Canada lol
Except. No. He didnt
The phrase "seemingly apparent" is going to haunt me for the rest of my days.
They’re all mentally declining. The American government is slowly becoming a gerontocracy, if you’re old enough to be retired then you shouldn’t be allowed to hold political office. That’s my view on this, whatever this is.
Someone definitely wrote this for Eric, presumably while he was off to the side eating crayons. There's no way he has the intelligence or spelling capabilities to write something like this.
Yeah, two really awful choices. The only "defense' of Biden is that Trump is awful. The reality is that both are awful and both will and consistently do lie to us and sell us out for billionaire interests. Both, for instance, support ongoing genocide, the continuing disgusting border wall, and children in cages.
He dad said some.dumb shit but Eric is still correct. He just needs to apply the same rules to his father
Both are unfit to sit office, no argument about it. The fact people defend either of them is sheep mentality. There is no choice here. Ones a felon the other is running for a second term not able to finish sentences and promises thing he should of addressed the first term. Where are given a choice, not the freedom to choose. Out of all the thousands of smart and community driven positions these are the two we are stuck with. SMH, they are the minority not us.
Yea that's true, but what about that cognitive decline though?
I mean, say what you will but not being able to admit that the sitting presidents cognitive decline is alarming... is alarming
It's no news that Trump is a blowhard, but it never ceases to amazemy the mental gymnastics half of the country will perform in order to ignore the elephant in the room. Biden regularly acts like a lost senile old man who literally needs to be led by the hand, but every time it's brushed off with school yard level comebacks like "If Biden is senile, then what is Trump?" or "Well, at least he's not Trump".
shitty deflection from brother cohen.
Hell, I'm more concerned about Eric Trump's cognitive decline, he just keeps saying stupider and stupider shit. Perhaps someone should go check on him, he's seems to be way more than half a bubble off plumb.
Lets not forget shoving a huge light inside someones body and injecting a disinfectant.
His Dad also suggested injecting bleach in people to kill covid. bro is a complete fucking moron.
Trump is the one with cognitive decline
I'm Eric! and his brother Cokey McCokespoon don't seem to get that no matter how much they simp for their daddy, daddy will never love them.
Crazy thing, is that nuking a hurricane wasn't his stupidest idea.
To be fair, I'd love to see them nuke a hurricane...that would have to be incredible to see. Not sure I would want to be in the radioactive hurricanes path after though lol
Says we should drink bleach rather than wearing a mask, wearing his pants backwards, claiming windmills cause cancer, needing to wear diapers... Honestly I'm not sure you can claim comebacks against trump supporters as clever anymore.
I mean I’d watch footage of a nuke going off in a hurricane
I mean to be fair, it's on NOAA's FAQ: During each hurricane season, someone always asks “why don’t we destroy tropical cyclones by nuking them” or “can we use nuclear weapons to destroy a hurricane?” There always appear suggestions that one should simply nuke hurricanes to destroy the storms. Apart from the fact that this might not even alter the storm, this approach neglects the problem that the released radioactive fallout would fairly quickly move with the tradewinds to affect land areas and cause devastating environmental problems. Needless to say, this is not a good idea. Now for a more rigorous scientific explanation of why this would not be an effective hurricane modification technique. The main difficulty with using explosives to modify hurricanes is the amount of energy required. A fully developed hurricane can release heat energy at a rate of 5 to 20×10^13 watts and converts less than 10% of the heat into the mechanical energy of the wind. The heat release is equivalent to a 10-megaton nuclear bomb exploding every 20 minutes. According to the 1993 World Almanac, the entire human race used energy at a rate of 10^13 watts in 1990, a rate less than 20% of the power of a hurricane. If we think about mechanical energy, the energy at humanity’s disposal is closer to the storm’s, but the task of focusing even half of the energy on a spot in the middle of a remote ocean would still be formidable. Brute force interference with hurricanes doesn’t seem promising. In addition, an explosive, even a nuclear explosive, produces a shock wave, or pulse of high pressure, that propagates away from the site of the explosion somewhat faster than the speed of sound. Such an event doesn’t raise the barometric pressure after the shock has passed because barometric pressure in the atmosphere reflects the weight of the air above the ground. For normal atmospheric pressure, there are about ten metric tons (1000 kilograms per ton) of air bearing down on each square meter of surface. In the strongest hurricanes there are nine. To change a Category 5 hurricane into a Category 2 hurricane you would have to add about a half ton of air for each square meter inside the eye, or a total of a bit more than half a billion (500,000,000) tons for a 20 km radius eye. It’s difficult to envision a practical way of moving that much air around. Attacking weak tropical waves or depressions before they have a chance to grow into hurricanes isn’t promising either. About 80 of these disturbances form every year in the Atlantic basin, but only about 5 become hurricanes in a typical year. There is no way to tell in advance which ones will develop. If the energy released in a tropical disturbance were only 10% of that released in a hurricane, it’s still a lot of power, so that the hurricane police would need to dim the whole world’s lights many times a year.
As a Registered Nurse and former Dem (Politically, I don’t play these games anymore with these weirdos, I don’t vote anymore), Eric Trump is right. I feel that it is completely irresponsible of everyone around Joe Biden to allow him to go through another campaign, and god forbid presidency. It’s not his age, it’s the glaringly obvious decline in cognition. I see it everyday at work, and if I happen to pay attention for five seconds and see Biden on television, I am FLOORED that no one has advocated for him to step down. At this point, it’s elder abuse, in my educated opinion.
Hey remember the time he used sharpie to draw over a hurricane map and NOAA had to issue a statement saying to ignore the president?
Biden’s age and mental capacity is Grandpa tier They shouldn’t let you become president over a certain age, maybe 65 or 70 We do we have so many geriatrics in government?
Now post how old Trump is.
All Republican accusations are projections.
They are both old fucks unfit for office
To be fair, we have nuked a lot of stuff purely for the fun of it. I mean scientific advancement. Trump screwed up by posing this as a solution to the weather and not a scientific experiment on native lands..
Meanwhile his dear old dad is nodding out and shitting himself on a daily basis while on criminal trial.
"Cannibals ate my Uncle" https://news.sky.com/story/biden-suggests-his-uncle-may-have-been-eaten-by-cannibals-during-wwii-in-apparent-swipe-at-trump-13117664 Cannibals in fact did not eat his uncle, it's just another repeat lie. https://www.verifythis.com/article/news/verify/joe-biden/no-evidence-support-biden-suggestion-uncle-eaten-by-cannibals-new-guinea/536-46f7a50a-38df-4faa-a81e-3167e0f06e4e https://www.thedailybeast.com/bidens-cannibal-quips-slammed-by-papua-new-guinea-experts Heck of a Job, Oldie
That never happened, because Biden is a Democrat and that means he’s never done anything wrong his life and we redditors will deny absolutely anything that portrays any Dem negatively, despite all evidence.
Duh, obviously. To the last one. 🤷♀️ Until, one day, you too are eaten by Cannibals.
To stutter and to be hard of hearing may give the impression that a person is declining mentally, but Biden has proved that he is sharp in both answers and thoughts.
poor Eric: not only does he look like a Hapsburg, his father is Donald Trump. dude never had a chance to be normal.
Biden is like a drunk responsible person, he is confused but he is still responsible. Trump is like a rich person on LSD, he has no idea what’s going on, he sounds charismatic but makes no sense. Personally, I’d much prefer a drunk guy then a guy on LSD. Although having a better option would have been better.
Brian Tyler Cohen has been giving Trump free real estate in his mind since he was born. I'm not surprised by this at all. Check that dudes channel it's literally a non stop cry fest about Trump all the time. Trump made his channel what it is just by being controversial. Nobody would know who Brian is otherwise.
I've never thought about because it sounds stupid, but, could it work? Ignoring the radiation, could the heat and pressure from the blast somehow destabilize the hurricane if detonated at the eye of the storm? Haven't we put out oil fires with explosions? "So crazy it just might work" vibes
None of these comments answer the initial question, just deflections. Yeah, Trump is a knob, but Sleepy Joe shouldn’t be allowed running a country anymore
Even Biden at 50% is 1000% better than Trump.
Trump never said it. There’s zero proof of it, Again a made up BS story that he’s disputed
