“We will institute the powerful death penalty for drug dealers, where each dealer is responsible for the death, during their lives, of 500 people or more,” he said.
"Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing in hosp … and we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms screaming, ‘What can I do, what can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess,” Trump continued, pivoting suddenly.
“You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, that they have no idea when they will. Where ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes, they don’t seek qualified air traffic controllers, and they just don’t know what the hell they are doing.”
“We will take over the horribly run capital of our nation in Washington, D.C., and clean it up, renovate it, and rebuild our capital city, so that it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime. But rather it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world,” Trump said.
“Right now, if you leave Florida, ‘Oh, let’s go, darling, let’s look at the Jefferson Memorial, let’s look at the Washington Monument, let’s go and look at some of the beautiful scenes,’ and you end up getting shot, mugged, raped,” he warned, promising that he’d run the city “tough and smart.”

media: why isn’t biden resigning?
Because Right Wing hacks own it
I would say this is because Trump’s potential voterbase doesn’t give a damn about having a competent, sane candidate. Biden’s potential voterbase has significantly higher standards. It’s easy to point out that there could theoretically be a better-performing candidate than Biden, but I don’t think it’s so easy to find someone that will get more conservative voter engagement than Trump.
Biden should resign, though. Trump’s mental decline doesn’t erase Biden’s.
lemmy doctors are absurd as congressional doctors who diagnosed terri schiavo over the tv.

Girl, did you watch the debate? What about earlier today when he spoke and said “Vice President Trump” instead of Kamala?
I’ve always thought Biden was polite and well spoken. He is VERY DIFFERENT when speaking now versus last time/2020. Not only is he incoherent at times, he’s also weirdly petty and grouchy - he started to blame his staff today and then interrupted himself and said his wife was telling him not to. It was WEIRD because he normally would keep his composure and not even mention it. It’s bad. He is clearly in elder decline.

I don’t care to compare Biden to a random person - I care to compare him to himself, 4 years ago. And I’ll vote for him, but for fucks’ sake, stop gaslighting us. It’s clear he’s in mental decline. If this was my grandpa, I’d force him to go to the doctor and I would probably not let him drive.
And yes, part of being president is public speaking - so if you cannot do that, then you aren’t qualified to be president. You’re correct there. That’s like, vitally important to the job.
No doctor can make that declaration due to HIPPA and state laws regarding diagnosing someone who isn’t your patient.
Yes, Trump is worse. I’ve never disagreed there. But it’s kinda concerning the only thing in the way of a fascist dictator is a man who is visibly going senile, and that man also will be in charge of laws and nuclear codes. It’s like, bad dude. Like really really bad. I’d vote for fucking Dolly Parton or Willie Nelson over either of these guys. I’d vote for a dog or a cat. I’d vote for a toddler over them. I’m sure a toddler could understand climate change better to be honest.
It doesn’t matter really anyway. We ran out of time. We are all walking corpses anyway. Enjoy your last few years. Even if we got the perfect climate president, even if every country in the world had perfect climate presidents, we’d still be pretty much out of time before we could make a solution (which will take years and will release more carbon and greenhouse gases). It was a good run.

Work is inherently ableist. There are many many medical conditions that would stop someone from being an effective president, including dementia and aphasias. You could say it’s ableist to allow a person who can’t consent (not being in their right mind), to do as dangerous of a job and as taxing of a job as president.
And being able to communicate is pretty critical lol, regardless if you agree or not. A speech impediment is fine if it doesn’t impact communication, but yes it’s an issue if you can’t understand them at all, unless they could perhaps sign (as in sign language). Communication isn’t about speaking perfectly, it’s about understanding your thoughts and getting others to see your point of view. Biden is not able to do either as he’s switching names entirely, eg VP Trump and President Putin snafus.
