François Mitterrand

Just saw this this morning . Good night. Mitterrand has been dead for 28 years. Supposedly he asked Joe and I quote " how long you back for Joe ?" . We will probably will only see Joe only a few times now before the election.

[Wrestleknownothing]

He meant Macron, not Mitterand. Like when Trump said Haley, but meant Pelosi. We have two senile old men to choose from. Oof.

[JimmyBT]

Only the guy Biden mentioned has been dead for decades.   

[mspart]

Has Haley been dead for decades?

Do we think the President of the United States and anyone running for President should take a cognitive test and the results be made available to voters?

[JimmyBT]

There’s a minimum age and there should be a maximum age.  The avg male in this country dies at 78.  No reason we should be dealing with people this old.

That would be correct. Today he could not remember the name Hamas, a reporter had to help him.

Yes . They should also have health and fitness test. The job is both mentally and physically demanding. You have the job for 4 years. It's not like a football or baseball season. I think this should be for congressman and senators along with term limits.

[JimmyBT]

Cognitive tests will be bisected and disected about who gave them, how they were administered and was the test fair.   Age is a clean and definitive way that takes testing out of it.

There really is no comparison. So my prediction is Joe suddenly has a medical issue in mid July preventing him from running for reelection. He has to withdraw from the presidential election. Who replaces Joe as the democratic nominee?

Generally, this is satisfied during a lengthy, vigorous campaign, but we can’t really rely on that or an honest press to convey the truth.

There absolutely is a comparison. As a matter of fact, they are identical situations. Two confused old men.

It’s something everyone does occasionally.  With Biden, it’s more often than not.

Wait ... what?  You said Haley was in charge of Jan 6 security. 

I can't argue with the second part.  Oof!

Current sources says Kamala.    Now there's a real non qualified candidate.  Talk about not being able to put coherent sentences together.  

Kamala - Culture is - it is a reflection of our moment and our time. Right?  And present culture is the way we express how we're feeling about the moment, and we should always find times to express how we feel about the moment. That is a reflection of joy. Because, you know, it comes in the morning.'

Kamala - We have to find ways to also express the way we feel about the moment in terms of just having language and a connection to how people are experiencing life. And I think about it in that way, too.'

She the one next in line.   Heaven help us all.

Maybe they’ll draft Amy Klobuchar to run again.

I think BobDole is finally really dead.   Has not made an appearance here when summoned.   Usually he swoops right in.   RIP BobDole.

We are in a world of hurt. Or as Kamala would say ,"our moment of time has come and we should reflect the moment because in the morning there will be joy".

Maybe he is meeting with Kamala as we speak.

[mspart]

Whether they are meeting or not meeting is not the appearance of morning joy, but it is in the words of the philosopher, an understanding of the root causes of who can get it done.   Once we get to the root causes, then progress can be made on the root causes so that the root causes will be addressed to address those root causes that we were addressing.  And I think about it in that way, too.

C'mon Bob ... Biden has been meeting with all the dead leaders, surely you've had a recent conversation.  Don't leave us in the dark @BobDole.  

 

President Biden claimed he spoke with the late German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, who died in 2017, in 2021 while recalling past conversations during fundraising events on Wednesday. The gaffe marks his second of the week.
