    It’s going to take some time for Biden to figure out what’s happening
  • Whereas there is no age limit to present oneself as a candidate, one has to consider the health and ability and mental state. Then there is the reality check.

    How come Clintons, Mr and Mrs so quiet ? What are the duos thinking ?
  • He’s still finding out about the shooting. He’s like a computer that’s taken on too many files.
  • 5 more Democrats today are now calling on Biden to drop out! The Dems are going to have to forcibly eject the poor old guy to get him out! 😂😂😂😂

    Cruella DeJill should be ashamed of herself letting her husband be humiliated daily for the whole world to see. He belongs in a Nursing home not in the WH.
