    The turtle ain't gonna catch the COVID from Trump. I wish he'd show this much fucking sense in everything else he does. :(

    So you think it's okay for the guy with the nuclear bombs to be on mind-altering steroids?

    Hell, Bush formally made Cheney the president for an afternoon when he was mildly sedated for a colonoscopy. He was only unconscious for 20 minutes, but he was responsible enough for legally hand over power for the day.

    But Pence can't step in briefly until Trump recovers? Fuck off with your "I'm not a Trump defending Republican" bullshit. :shrug:

    I'm stunned at how many self-proclaimed Libertarians are such Trump-lickers.

    I consider myself pretty damn libertarian but there's no way I'd vote for or defend Cheeto like some of these mental defectives do. :jayzus:

    Calling out Nancy Pelosi's bullshit does not equal defending Trump.

    You don't think there are legitimate concerns about Trumps health if he is executing power on some of the medications he is speculated to have in his system?

    When your hatred of liberals--and their evil Avatar of Doom, The Clapping Lady--enables you to support a joke of a man like Donald Trump, it's time to reevaluate your belief system. Ask yourself a few simple questions:

    Do I get irrationally angry when people insult where I live, even though I think people who live in CA and NY are elitist scum?

    Do women in pant suits scare me?

    Do I like hearing it 'how it is' even if intellectually, I know what I'm hearing is an objective untruth?

    Is half the reason for my ideological beliefs to feel superior to others or to troll them?

    It's not bullshit. Congress is within its 25th amendment powers to establish an independent commission to determine if the President is unfit for office.

    In honor of Dayton and especially Federal Crazy Horse, I submit a new mental illness for the next DSM: Southern Inferiority Syndrome. When a person accuses you of having TDS, for example, gently remind them that being concerned about an idiot ruining the country is not actually a sign of derangement...and that no, the South will not rise again no matter how many guns they buy at Walmart.

    Sure, but in order to invoke 25 she needs the Vice President as well as the Senate to sign off on it. That will never happen, so once again it's a lot of drama that looks like it was done for purely political reasons.

    I'm sure you all noticed how Pence filibustered his way out of answering that question.

    Silly Order2Chaos, the rule is that when Republicans do anything they are technically allowed to they are just following the rules and Democrats need to shut up, but if the Democrats exercise all the powers they technically have they are overstepping and it's bad.

    Exactly. It's the same shit she's been pulling for the past four years. Russiagate didn't work so let's try the Muller investigation, that didn't stick so they tried Impeachment, that didn't stick so they want to do Impeachment 2, now this. And if Trump wins re-election, they'll think of something else. Maybe she needs to be removed for her chronic TDS.

    What the hell is that mask and that outfit. I really hope she's making fun of Trump with all of that orange.

    Trump is going to be cleared by his doctors to resume campaigning on Saturday, so really she's just blowing a lot of hot air.

    Please. Do you think Trump's doctors have any choice in the matter?

    I went to the ER on Sept. 30. Got out just after midnight on the 1st. I can't return to my job until the 13th...and I tested negative for Covid. This is all per multiple doctors' orders, both for my safety and the safety of the people I work with.

    Trump was diagnosed and treated for the disease after my quarantine started. He will resume his campaigning before my quarantine ends. I guarantee you no doctor in the world, including his, thinks this is a good idea. It's unsafe, irresponsible, and downright negligent on the part of everyone involved. And this is the man who should run the country another four years? Come on. Pelosi has a point and you all know it. The man is clearly unstable and unfit--there should at least be some questions asked about his competence at this point. But Liberal Derangement Syndrome runs deep. Better to let a sick man run the country than to appear weak and give the libs a win.

    The GOP: party over country, every time.

    Yeabut the election's only a month away and the Dems have the momentum. It might be wiser to take Biden's cue and shut the fuck up at this point.

    The fact that you and Trump both consider this *medical diagnosis" to be a foregone conclusion tells me exactly how seriously I should take either of you. :async:
