DOJ Officially Certifies Biden as Mentally Retarded

[mookiemcgee]

And yet... we still have to vote for him, because the other guy would auction off the capital building his first week in office to pay off his personal legal debts.

Justplay4maga wants it unbiased but gets a stiffy when a political hack like Robert Hur makes the diagnosis.

Justplay4maga wants it unbiased but gets a stiffy when a political hack like Robert Hur makes the diagnosis.

Hur offered his assessment of Biden's mental state for one simple reason: He had to determine if he could WIN a TRIAL against Biden for the charges. He determined that Biden is too feeble to warrant a conviction. Most defenders of Biden seem to deny and/or are ignorant about this BASIC legal point.

And you do not know the meaning of political hack, either.

a politician who belongs to a small clique that controls a political party for private rather than public ends.

Learn something, p-MA(C)GA. Hur is not a politician.

And pmac is closer to MAGA than most.

He determined that Biden is too feeble to warrant a conviction. Most defenders of Biden seem to deny and/or are ignorant about this BASIC legal point.

Wrong. Most people supporting Biden are under no illusion about the fact that he is old and feeble. They almost all wish he would have had a Johnson moment and realized he should step aside and not run for a second term. But he didn't, and he's still by far the lesser of two evils.

As Mookie cleverly put it,

And yet... we still have to vote for him, because the other guy would auction off the capital building his first week in office to pay off his personal legal debts.

The choice is between a man who is old and starting to fade in his mental capacity, but basically well-intentioned, and a wicked man who is pure malevolent evil, a serial con artist and thief whose entire life and career have been devoted to ripping people off.

I don't vote in your elections, but if faced with a choice between a man who is a little feeble but basically kind-hearted, and a man who is pure malevolent thief, I know who I would vote for.

[KoolBak]

Opinions. Aren't they grand?

I see Biden as the horrible, evil, completely unbearable one.

And I DO get to vote

And that's the end of my political interaction in a place that doesn't matter.

Duk fails to consider:

1) the damage to international affairs of having a weak, old and feeble man who is perceived as weak. China, Russia, Iran, and other "bad actors" use that weakness, perceived and actual, to do harm.

2) Biden's actually is not JUST a care taker, but his policies are not good either. Deficit spending at HIS LEVELS is bad, and, as we discussed, so are his bad decisions and actions on the border. I do not see electric cars as a REAL solution, either. His economy is not good. He seems to advocate for abortion on demand. I do not like his advocacy for trangender issues as this is not good for this country. Given more thought, I am sure I can list more.

I do not like Trump, but it seems those two are the only REAL choices we in America are given. Well, I guess I could NOT vote, or throw away my vote and give it to a third party that has NO chance to win.

3) I think that Duk over-characterizes the dangers of Trump. Again, I appreciate some arguments but to (essentially) consider him as evil-incarnate is not honest and not productive to discuss policy. I think that Trump truly loves this country, but his love does not always translate into good policies for most Americans.

4) I think to elect someone weak and feeble is UNWISE. How much can we hold him responsible for? (versus those of his "advisors" and handlers? and who are the ones who really "control" and advise him? We are essentially electing a group of unknown persons and can only surmise their intents and policies. We can safely assume that they are very leftist, even to the point of (dare I say it) being communists and/or socialists.

The "good Old Joe" worked for 2020; I am not sure that same mantra will work agaiin in 2024, given the failures of Biden. That is due LARGELY to the part of being OLD (and feeble) is not good for the nation and for the world.

Trump has a huge negative factor, and many will not vote for him. It seems that Biden is getting huge negative factors too that will cause many NOT to vote for him. If many do not vote for either one, Trump may win because he has so many hard-core dedicated followers.

saxi continues his LIE (in the title here and elsewhere). Biden is mentally incompetent, not retarded. His lack of intelligence ALL his life is not to the point of retardation, but is certainly below most political leaders.

As a fellow non American it's like watching a car crash in slow motion.
You have a serial liar, fraud, 91 indictments, rapist who has committed treason multiple times and only wants to be president in order to pardon himself of yet more crimes and commit more treason to line his own pockets

Biden is a bit old

And yet Trump could still win.

To respond to kizkiz:
The entire political situation is not good for the USA. This goes beyond Biden vs. Trump, who are TWO BAD CHOICES.

Here is another example to illustrate this political situation:
The Budget situation in Congress is not good and not something discussed much in this Forum. We cannot continue to pass massive budgets at the last minute with the threat of a government shut-down and default. Eventually what looks everyday more like a house of cards will fall. This is terribly irresponsible and due much to political gridlock as we continue to elect extreme partisans and not elect responsible and less shrill people.

I really wonder how much of this crude, hateful and divisive rhetoric is pushed by bad actors online on social media. (I should ask ConfedSS to research the matter.)

When will you start to slander the other choice?
Not theres a shortage of opportunities, like hes old, mentally even worse than Joe, hes a fraud, a rapist, a rasist and wanted to overturn a free and fair election. Show your work. lol

True, i usually only fly over your nonsense. Still, i never saw Trump getting the same treatment as old Joe gets.
Rather the opposite, you find alotta excuses for Trump......like all good magats do.

Opinions. Aren't they grand?

You can't just say it's all my opinion.

An opinion is about whether black forest cake is a better dessert than tarte au citron.

Trump being a serial con-man and thief is exhaustively documented fact.

With the casino, the fact that he took investors' money, walked away with it, and let everyone else go bankrupt, is all documented in the bankruptcy proceeding. It's not something someone made up (although I will admit that the actual number is somewhat in dispute, and maybe you could call that a matter of opinion.)

With the "university", the fact that he never had any intention of teaching anyone anything, he was just taking their money, and every "class" was just a long infomercial upselling them to the next non-class, has been documented with thousands of affidavits and depositions. Unless you think all these thousands of victims conspired to come up with the same phoney story, you have to accept it as fact, not opinion.

With his real estate stuff, the fact that he almost always paid less than the agreed upon amount to his contractors, and gambled (and usually won) on the bet that they couldn't afford better lawyers than his, has again been described by hundreds of contractors that got screwed. Again, unless you think they're all involved in some massive conspiracy....

The Yucatan resort, not as famous but same as the casino. Collected his share up front, walked away and let the project go bankrupt. Every single investor lost money.

You see it playing out right now, in real time. He's collected 3 billion in this SPAC, which is going to take over his money-losing website. He's going to pocket an inflated valuation for the website and walk away, and everyone who bought is going to lose, at a charitable valuation, at least 80% of their money. You say you used to be an investment banker, so I'm sure this isn't news to you. It's literally happening right now, over the next few weeks, and you can watch him screw his followers in real time.

It isn't just "opinion", unless you think evolution is just an opinion, or the earth going around the sun is just an opinion.

About the only possible way you could put a positive spin on this is if he's a real-life Francisco d'Anconia, on a covert moral mission to screw investors out of their money. But Okham's Razor doesn't slice that.

[KoolBak]

That's your opinion.

I don't discuss politics or religion. They are personal beliefs. I have mine and I'm happy with them. I don't GAF about anyone else's as it doesn't impact me or mine. "Discuss" all you want

Decided to go to the coast and grab a couple hotel rooms for the night yesterday as today is my eldest's 27th birthday. Saw some neat little beaches I hadn't been to. Played pool and had a great dinner at a cool local bar.

Gonna take the scenic route home today.....

THIS is what matters

All good. Enjoy your trip...

https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-seethes-truth-socials-stock-173630276.html

Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) have slid significantly this week, falling nearly nine percent today alone.

The news comes after Trump reiterated that he'll double down and continue to use Truth Social, a far right social media platform owned by TMTG, despite major losses and a seriously dubious financial outlook.

Shares of the group have been tanking ever since it merged with a blank check acquisition company last month, falling almost 25 percent in the last five days.

At the time of writing, shares are hovering around $42, well below the price at the merge, wiping out billions of dollars in value, including $1 billion of Trump's own net worth.

Trump, as he often does, has responded with seething grievance.

"When I ENDORSE a politician on TRUTH, they almost ALWAYS WIN," he wrote in a rambling and incoherent Truth Social post on Thursday. "If it didn’t work, or properly get the word out, I wouldn’t use it — But it does work, and work really well — And the fun is just getting started!!!"

The Conald
Analysts, who've long predicted this outcome, have argued that thanks to a lack of any semblance of revenue growth, TMTG shares are "grossly overvalued."

Last week, news emerged that Truth Social made a measly $4.1 million in revenue for all of 2023, despite having lost more than $58 million over the same period.

Even after the slump, TMTG has a market capitalization of over $5.7 billion, eclipsing the company's revenues.

"I mean, it’s ridiculous," Barry Diller, chairman of holdings company IAC and Expedia, told CNBC on Thursday. "The company has no revenue."

"It’s a scam, just like everything [Trump's] ever been involved in is some sort of con," he added.

[mookiemcgee]

It is kinda of shocking it the priced hasn't collapsed faster... companies that show no profits or even massive losses go way up all the time, but companies that have no revenue getting multi billion dollar valuations is something new, even in the tech world.

Telsa lost massive amounts of money for years before becoming profitable, but they always found a way to generate revenue even if it meant buying solar panel instal companies or other mostly unrelated to electric car ventures. Gamestop might have had overwhelming debt and no prospects or plans for redemption arc back in late 2020... but it still had massive revenue.

DJT only source of revenue is the interest earned on it's cash deposits from selling it's own stock lol. The 5%/year interest it earns on it's cash ($4.1m), that's its ONLY source of revenue.

[saxitoxin]

Nobody is buying DJT because of the fundamentals.

- DJT Buyer 1: Trump supporter buying and holding a couple shares to buoy the price. This is a novel campaign donation for him, not an investment. Doesn't mind if Trump eventually dumps a large portion of the stock and crashes the company provided he directs a portion of the proceeds into the campaign.

- DJT Buyer 2: Favor-seeker buying and holding as an alternative to a conventional donation. He's legally prohibited from giving more than $5K directly to the campaign; could start a Super PAC and plow unlimited money in but is then forced to disclose spending which he doesn't want to do for a number of reasons. Investing in DJT as an alternative to either direct donations or Super PAC funding is a way around it.

- DJT Buyer 3: Options trader counting on 1 and 2 holding even if the company implodes.

[saxitoxin]

It's quite ingenious, though credit is not due to Trump since he just copypasted Hunter Biden's art scam. (Though on a grander scale.)

Trump opened a lemonade stand that is only open for 30 minutes at 2 a.m. every Tuesday in a bad section of Torrance and exclusively sells cold coffee. If someone decides this is a business model that is worth a $10 million investment, they probably have bad business acumen. But it's not a crime to make shit investments. Just like it's not a crime to have bad taste in art.

It's not a crime, legally. It is a crime morally. As you pointed out in your first post, it's basically a way to make a mockery of the campaign finance laws.

Of course, backdooring the assets of the casino was an actual crime, that didn't get prosecuted because Chris Christie was on the payroll. Lots of Trump scams have been actual, legal crimes that didn't get prosecuted because the right person got paid off, or because they were just close enough to legal that someone figured there were bigger fish to fry. This grifter should have been in the dungeons long before he found his way into politics.

More evidence of the mental decline of Joe Biden:

President Biden’s recent use of notes and a list of reporters’ names during press events has garnered attention and sparked discussions about presidential communication strategies.

These instances, including a joint press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and an earlier Oval Office meeting, highlight the president’s approach to managing information and engaging with the media.

During the joint press conference, Biden was observed looking down at the podium as he answered questions, indicating the use of notes, which were also visible from the reflection in his sunglasses. At one point, he mentioned having a “list” of reporters to call on next, showcasing a planned approach to handling questions from the media.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-uses-a-list-of-reporters-and-notes-during-the-white-house-joint-press-conference-with-the-japanese-prime-minister/ar-BB1lAFji?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=HCTS&cvid=37121411bacd462dbd0ca2d92a138c98&ei=25

and more, same source:

One vivid incident occurred in October when Biden was photographed holding a note card containing the names and images of reporters during a press conference. It was noted that all the listed reporters were called on during the event, raising questions about the selection process and the level of spontaneity in addressing questions from the media.

Do we need more evidence of Biden "trying" to look mentally competent? SAD. Biden started with low intelligence, before his mental decline, AND he has fallen FAR.

[Pack Rat]

Silly MAGA boy, lol.

Trump believes Biden is the mastermind of the criminal enterprise over the election process, but also the Judicial system!

If anybody asks who should I believe...Trump or the feeble attempts by MAGA boy, I would side with Trump.

[mookiemcgee]

Trump fell asleep at his trial today, probably Obama/Bidens fault.
