    Trump's dwindling mental state

    This thread is interesting because I remember the days when I brought up Biden's mental impairments - which were proven to be true by the way.  All I heard from the far lefties on this forum is I have no right to question Biden's mental state or lack of one because I wasn't a doctor.  So am I supposed to believe you all have medical degrees and are now doctors?   The comedy of MTF political section is priceless. 

    Joe may have been slowing down, but the comparison to Trump isn’t apples to oranges, it’s watermelons to raisins. 
    On his very best day, the Orange Man who shall remain nameless has never had an actual educated understanding of foreign affairs, domestic policy, or humanitarian endeavors and how these policies shape our world militarily, politically, and financially…. And all three also needed a good dose of empathy to garner the highest level of success for/and/to ALL entities involved in this world.

    And,  no one can tell me otherwise, without a giant smirk on their face, that they think the Donald’s rants are anything but incredibly embarrassing and mostly populated with a ridiculous amount of straightout lies of the  stupidest nature.

    if you were sitting in a board room, and this was your manager, and he was popping off with the dumb ass reason Dijour of why you should fall to your knees and kiss his ass, I believe 98% of you would pull your knees off the floor brush them off turn around and leave the room. But for some reason, you’re all hanging in with this nonsense that’s going on. 

    Tis a puzzlement….  as the king of Siam would say. 
    surely there has to be a limit to what you’re willing to incorporate into your psyche when you know they are nothing but lies. Surely there must truly be a straw that will break the camels back.

    Well, that’s it. When I go for my physical next week, I’m telling the nurse to put down 5’3”.  Last time I was there, they rounded down to 5’1”.  
     

    since I’m moving, I’ll be looking for a new primary care physician anyway. And I’m gonna just tell the new nurse “let’s start with 5’3”.  
     

    note:  I’ve lied about my height since high school…. Then, somewhere, a doctor’s office actually measured me.  Damn.

    I am returning to that lie now.  And nobody better argue with me.  5’3” it is.

    That NYT lawsuit is amazingly Emperor's New Clothsy (ENC).   He has never made a mistake and everyone loves him according to the filing.  He's only disliked by jealous people who lack his superior genetic make up. 

     

    Awesome.  Let’s get him in a room and answering questions - discovery.  And ask the Epstein questions.

    Are they still maintaining the fiction that the victims were young women? Or, even worse, "underage women"? I sense that the apparent attempt to dehorrify the crimes in the service of one man is purposeful.

    When I see them referred with that phrase, I want to jump through my screen and scream at them. 
    Children.  
    They were groomed. And they were children.

    I’m tired of being this angry. Where have the normal people gone in this government? 
     

    Trying to exist in this kakistocracy becomes more impossible and more exhausting every day.

    That he did the hosting duties for this show  is, imo, so terribly wrong.  That Stephen Miller was his guest is despicable.  
    Good lord.  
    We are staring into the abyss.

    But I’m sure ICE hires only the best people! The smartest!  they’re not in it for the bonus money! They’re Patriots doing their patriotic duty joining ICE, and they’re always educated! They know all about things!

    Come on.

    Just like their fearless leader, the orange menace….. Stupidity is preferred. Ignorance is preferred. Cruelty is the point.
    Who can be surprised by any of this? Absolutely no one.

    Media Meltdown and also Media Bias 101

    Copied from a friend of mine. (Not sure where she may have seen&copied)

    ============================

    Here is how you, personally, can help reduce the temperature in the country, and move us collectively away from the political extremes: the next time you plan to listen to a podcast, turn on music instead. The next time you plan to scroll social media before bed, read a fiction book instead. The next time you plan to turn on cable news, go outside and breathe in fresh air for 15 minutes. And then make those things a habit at least once or twice a week for the foreseeable future. Our algorithms are killing us. Quite literally.

    @smr-nj Sue, looking like you have this one…

    Listen, I’ve watched the Yankees bullpen blow leads in the seventh eighth and ninth innings this year, stay tuned for the whole game, because I’m telling you it ain’t over till it’s over. (Borrowed that for my old Paisan Yogi Berra)

    on the other hand, I am done for the night with baseball.

    Aaron Judge has just moved in to a tie with Joe DiMaggio for fourth on the all-time Yankee Homer’s list. I don’t need to see anymore tonight.

    Ciao, guys.

    Cam Schlittler the Yankees starter has a name you have to fight for just like Dylan Dingler. 

    I can’t imagine what it’s been like for him to go through life with that name. Lol.
     

    I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that my team is going to pull one game out of this series and tonight’s the game. Although as in previous two nights, I won’t be watching the game after about the third ending anyway. So I’ll have to find out in the morning whether or not my prediction comes true. 


    have a good night, ladies and gentlemen. Enjoy the game. 🙂

    10:28 North Tower collapses.

     

    i spend much of that day desperately trying to reach my sister, who lived in Manhattan, by phone.  Wasn’t successful until i eventually realized cell tower calls weren’t getting through.  I reached her by email later that afternoon. She previously worked about two or three blocks away from the World Trade Center, but had been laid off about a month previous, but I knew every week she was down there visiting with friends and coworkers and networking so she could find her next job.

    I just didn’t know if she was down there that morning. Thankfully, she was not. That was the scariest six or seven hours ever to me.

    Like I do every year, I am listening to the 9/11 memorial reading of the names. 
     

    First plane hit the tower 8:46.  
     I recall it was the most beautiful fall day.  
     

    Please implore your congressional representatives to keep the funding for those firemen & others who are still suffering from severe health issues from working in the rubble for many of those subsequent days.
