Look, I realize this framing is trite, but for all of the obsessive focus on Biden’s age and mental acuity, he never went around sharing the details of imaginary conversations that he claimed to be having in the here and now.

Trump, meanwhile, does it all the time.

Trump shares a conversation with Sharpie maker that apparently never occurred

As a rule, when the president talks about imaginary conversations, his descriptions are vague. Occasionally, he slips up.

I listened to this about an hour ago. A few points have slowly returned. The rest, I fear, are gone forever.

“U.S. Rejects Vote to Recognize Slavery as a ‘Crime Against Humanity’”

"Dan Negrea, a U.S. representative to the U.N.’s Economic and Social Council, accused the sponsors of questioning President Trump’s support for Black voters in the United States. “President Trump has done more for Black Americans than any other president,” he said.”

Oh….fuck ALL the way off…

I've never worked for any company whose HR department actually helped employees. They are *always* set up to protect the employer…

I just *love* that Trump now wants other countries to clean up his mess, by keeping the Straights of Hormuz open. No, you orange shitweasal, you can clean up your own mess.
