That's appalling, but I also remember when we had a President with the "best words."

The study analyzed tweets of the President Donald Trump to observe the presence of Malapropism. For the purpose, five hundred tweets appearing online from the President’s personal twitter handle “@realDonaldTrump” were randomly selected. Content analysis of the selected data units revealed that the Presidential tweets are generally syntactic flubs and are frequently stuffed with semantic mistakes. Findings of the study suggest that the President occasionally gets tricked by the orthographic and phonetic adjacency of the words and substitutes the contextually needed words with Malaprops.

And in the frequent interactions with the press, POTUS 45 was knowledgeable about whatever subject the press tried to zing him on. He answered the questions asked of him and didn't need notes or a teleprompter.

The man knew what was going on because he was engaged in the job, listened to his diverse advisors and chose his way forward.

Yeah, I really liked "45's" televised appearance where he pondered the possibility of using disinfectant inside of people to "do a number" [sic] on the Covid viruses inside their bodies. I liked the way he looked towards Dr. Deborah Birx and said (and these are closely Trump's words, although not his exact words) "Of course, that's something that would have to be checked out by medical doctors. Using disinfectant, inside the bodies of Covid patients."
It was so reassuring to know that the federal government's Chief Executive was so "bigly" plugged in and in the loop. And it went over "bigly" with a lot of people across the 50 United States who would eventually become known as "Biden voters."
Among Trump's "diverse" group of advisors... Mike Flynn, Mike Lindell, Roger Stone, Peter Navarro, John Eastman. The "certifiables" that Trump took advice from in the run-up to "January 6."
Mike Pence is probably liking these telecasts of the Jan. 6 committee hearings. As is Ron DeSantis. Kristi Noem. Any number of other people who are thinking about trying to garner the Republican candidacy for President in 2024. But Donald J. Trump?
"You make the call."

This is the guy that holds all of the launch codes, is setting policy and spending our money in the Ukraine for "Putin's War" Twitter
You mention nuclear codes, and I'd like to mention one thing again that crosses my mind every time I hear president and nuclear codes.
Every time a Republican gets into office, the Democrats scream holy-hell that the Republicans are going to destroy the world with nuclear weapons.
In reality, the ONLY nuclear weapons EVER USED in war time, were done by a Democrat. Not once, but twice, and it led to the deaths of 380 thousand people.
It's just more bull **** by Democrats, a false narrative, warped logic, and outright lies. The Democrat party is literally responsible for the following things:
Internment Camps Jim Crow / laws Jim Jones Founding of the KKK Segregation laws U.S. Civil War Agent Orange Eugenics Trail of Tears

"The Persistence of Memory". Salvador Dali, 1931.
This is 2022. The most recent items on that timeline are "Jim Jones" and "Agent Orange", and even those are almost a full generation removed from current and recent times.
This is a recurring theme on this forum, from certain forum members.
The Democratic Party has persisted in name since 1824, but if someone wants to run for office as a Democrat or become a Democrat in some other way, they don't go to "Democratic Party University" to prepare themselves to become part of some formal ideology or tradition, curated and bestowed upon them as the legacy of the previous generation of Democrats, who in turn passed it on from their own Democratic ancestors. That doesn't happen. It's not a "thing."
Identify politics? That's not a unique or distinguishing characteristic of today's Democrats. The nexus between Christian evangelicals and today's Republican Party is enough to demolish that canard.
The Democratic Party of current and recent times has exactly one thing in common with the Democratic Party of the Civil War, and the Democratic Party that was active during the other bygone events and eras on that timeline: The NAME.

No sudden light breeze to knock the frail old dotard down and no "slick patch" on bone dry pavement to blame. HE JUST STOPPED...AND FELL OVER SIDEWAYS.... Monty Python comedy style.
Pretty much like he has done with just about every important issue so far.....Just stopped, and fell down.

Is it still possible to get a copy of that "history" book you got all this from? There seem to be quite a few contradictions.
My idea of a Conservative is a person who believes in moral and ethical values that build strong families and communities. A person who judges based on character and actions, not by color, sex or body type. A person who believes that there is a God, we are all His children and we should love each other as He loves us, and strives daily to follow His Ten Commandments. A person who believes that the Constitution of the United States is the best form of government devised by Mankind, and should be the model for governments of all people. A person who believes that hard work, honesty and ethical behavior in dealing with others is the best way to feel good about yourself at the end of the day.
I don't care for the Republican and Democratic labels, and the way the labels are used to bludgeon others.

This one is my favorite. They consistently say that the parties switched sides. So what was FDR? The Democrats were passing all the anti-black legislation and were pro-Socialist at the same time... so what were they? And we conveniently leave out that Al Gore's father voted against the civil rights act, while Prescott Bush's father voted for it. Or how we literally had a former Grand Master of the KKK as a U.S. Senator less than a decade ago.
I'm reminded of what Florida was like when I moved here in 1996. In 1996, Democrats were in power. With the exception of two one-term Governors that followed Democrat corruption charges and resignations from scandals, the Democrats had held power in Florida for over 120 years. When I came to Florida in 1996, the state was a **** hole. The KKK still had their Southern HQ in Davie, FL. There was rampant crime (as evident by the TV show Miami Vice). I could go on.
Since Republicans took over in 1998, the everglades have undergone numerous protections. The amount of chemical run-off that Democrats allowed for 50+ years from the farms has been reduced significantly. More and more land has been purchased and turned into nature preserves. Crime has been halved, schools have improved, and all the major money-makers in Florida (ports, beaches, infrastructure) has been dramatically improved. All the laws and rules that used to uniquely affect poor people (vehicle safety & emissions inspections, etc.) were all eliminated and overturned. More importantly... as the population has become more Republican, there has been less and less racism, and there is no longer a KKK HQ or membership.
The Democrats make up stories to explain-away all the horrible things they've done in their past, but the reality is... they were never secretly Republican, they were Democrats. As the Democrats have died off, or just slowly moved away, the state has become less racist as more and more Republicans move here.
New York City is one of the most racist places I know. There's a distinct hatred between blacks, Asians, whites, and mostly non-white Hispanics. It looks more like a maximum security prison population how people segregate themselves into different areas. As the place becomes more and more Democrat, the place becomes more racist, more dirty, more poor, with more mentally ill and homeless people everywhere. Once again... after only 8 years of Democrat rule, the place is in shambles again and you can no longer ride the subway without being raped, murdered, or accosted by mentally ill people ... that is, if you can even get on the train without being pushed onto the tracks by an insane person first.
Democrat politicians destroy EVERYTHING they touch.

I think there are many who have said that the incoherence of Trump's Covid-related messaging was at the very top of the list, in so far as reasons or factors that brought about Biden's victory in 2020. Or, for the "Big Lie" people, made the election close enough that the Democrats could manage to get away with stealing it for Biden.
The "disinfectant moment" is emblematic of a larger assemblage of Covid-related moments and episodes involving the former President that comprise a veritable montage of incoherence that's archived in the public records from that time.
It's only natural for me to take this opportunity to remind the forum of the Disinfectant Moment and everything it entails.

It's only natural for me to take this opportunity to reinforce to the Forum the sheer stupidity of the comments you post as replies to the reasonably intelligent conversations that the rest of us enjoy.
Although my comment is superfluous, as the rest of the Forum is quite aware of your posting history.
As time passes, your posts become more and more focused on a seething hatred of a single American who holds no political office. If the things that you believe are true, why would he be of any significance? Why would he be the focus of so much media coverage and continued discussion, long after he was vanquished from any position of power? Why would an overwhelming percentage of his endorsements be winning in so many primaries across the entire nation? Why do you care?
This could be the least credible or least plausible "walk back" of a president's most recent words in 233 years of American presidential history.
The first thing I said in this discussion is that Biden's "[He] dropped dead very unexpectedly" remark, in a message of condolence, is "appalling."
I don't think Biden will try for a second term, even if he is able to complete his first term in office, which I don't think is a given, considering his age and the stiffness of his gait.

Some are more preoccupied with Trump now than they were when he still held the reins. I believe this irrational obsession is indicative of misplaced fear. Not a fear of Trump or what he stands for, but fear that they themselves made an egregious error.
Some would rather embark on a Quixotic crusade than face the fact that their own decisions might have had severely negative, widespread and long lasting consequences.
We have all made a mistake, then, rather than admit it, proclaimed, “Yeah, I meant to do that!”

There's a lot of "thread" here, going this way and that. When it's all said and done, this is what I hope future generations will remember as the best thing that "rinselberg" said during the course of this threaded chain of online remarks; "too whit" [sic]
Not sure why anyone is bring up Trump in this thread, it has nothing to do with the link. I wonder if staff started leaving bowls of gum around the white house would it keep Joe from wondering off?
Originally posted by Jake_Dragon: Not sure why anyone is bring up Trump in this thread, it has nothing to do with the link.
The Original Post is about a verbal gaffe or ill-considered words from Biden, and that naturally invites comparisons with DJT, a man of many a verbal eccentricity over the years, from mispronunciations, to misspellings, to grammatical "singularities" and more. A man of many a malapropism.
It's widely reported that when George W. Bush sat in on Trump's inaugural address, "W" turned aside to whoever was seated next to him on one side or the other and muttered "that's some weird s**t." About what Trump was saying in his inaugural address.
Some of these "Trump-isms" are highlighted, among the various other remarks that I have sprinkled throughout the length and breadth of this forum thread.
But I will try to refrain from saying anymore about Trump in this thread.

Your logic is called distraction. We are talking about Biden. If you want to talk about Trump then start a thread about his "Despite the constant negative press covfefe". Otherwise,
Can anyone tell me why the hell ol' Joe uses toe cages? I know better than to do that. I can guarantee I would tumble just like he did. They are not for casual, leisure riders. Joe ain't no racer boy.

They just need to strategically place a couple of those creepy corner dolls that were all the rage years ago around the White house. Sniffy Joe won't have time to think about leaving.
