They despised “low-energy” Secretary Clinton, so they are gonna get “high-energy” Biden.
Who am I kidding, these turds are gonna whine about him no matter what. I can’t stop hammering the point that Biden and Senators once tried to give them everything they wanted on the border, but they rejected it because Inmate #P01135809 said to.
I recently came across the “the card says moops” video about (some kind of) right-wing thinking. Essentially, beliefs and opinions are tools to be picked up or discarded as they are useful, not because of any internally consistent belief. Explains a lot of this kind of thing.
They will claim: “He is always sleepy and slow, and SUDDENLY he is fast and upbeat? He must on some stimulants! We cannot have a President on stimulants!!”
I listen to a podcast that is generally quite opposite of my political alignment, but I usually find it entertaining. One thing these guys believe or at least discuss quite often is that Biden is being given drugs at certain times to “kick start” him for things like the SOTU. So, I don’t believe this is anything new.
I’m still surprised people in the US actually vote only for people so old they can’t reasonably do the job properly. I mean what’s up with that?
I guess the cynic in me thinks only people that old have a lifetime of being beholden to the powers behind the curtain to have their trust to receive big campaign funding. But that doesn’t explain Trump. He was never really ‘favoured’ by the establishment as far as I gather. Not that I think he was a good president of course, don’t get me wrong!
It’s because of the report that came out recently that showed trumps doctor was called “the candy man”, who handed out uppers and downers by the handfuls to White House staff.
I’m pretty sure this is fairly common for folks working in the White House, but apparently under Trump the drug usage was especially egregious
There’s a Cinco de mayo (2016?) photo of trump in his home office where in the background is a drawer open containing a British allergy medication. A med that is illegal in the USA because it contains amphetamines. Suspicious at best

Fox News host Sean Hannity branded Biden “very angry” and “over-caffeinated,” while a former White House press secretary said he was “weirdly amped up.”
Biden used his State of the Union address to lay down a challenge to Donald Trump, who, after a succession of primary victories on Super Tuesday, has all but sown up the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, former Republican White House press secretary Ari Fleischer wrote: "No one is going to remember a single thing Biden says tonight.
During an interview with House Speaker Mike Johnson, Fox News host Sean Hannity described Biden at the address as “very angry, very jacked up, who might say charitably over-caffeinated.”
As he entered the House ahead of his speech, Biden looked shocked and appeared to recoil when he was approached by Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene wearing a red MAGA hat.
Greene then handed Biden a badge bearing the name of Laken Riley, the 22-year-old Georgia nursing student who police believe was murdered by a Venezuelan national on February 22.

Republicans complain……
Seemingly all news regarding them involves this in one way or another.
that’s how you know President Biden knocked out out of the park
Normalize political energy. Howard Dean should have won.
Old man too old!
Old man not old enough!
Old man too energetic!
Old man… whatever!

Yep, the alt-right playbook. That dude has a dozen videos covering all that stuff.

In the next breath they’ll call him “sleepy Joe.”
They will claim: “He is always sleepy and slow, and SUDDENLY he is fast and upbeat? He must on some stimulants! We cannot have a President on stimulants!!”

Declassified documents show that former presidents like Reagan and JFK were on extreme cocktails of drugs.
Trump famously had that pic showing his oval office desk drawer full of Ephedrine (the good EU kind, not pseudo)
I would be utterly shocked if Biden was drug free.
But does it matter? Biden’s energy level and coherence were well above expectations.
Shit, I think most people would need prescription strength stimulants to do that job, especially in their 80s.

When it always comes down to 2 choices, it ends up being not much of a choice. 😐
It’s always projection with these people.
if they are saying that in their own channels, it wont be long until those narratives hit the mainstream. and prolly hard.

You obviously didn’t read what you are responding to
But the report is from the pentagon

Trump is pretty well known for being sober

Tell that to his ketamine prescription.

What? He shits himself because his bowel control is destroyed from all the coke he used to do.
It was sarcasm.
I’m not certain it was. He is indeed well known for abstaining from alcohol because of his brother, Fred Jr.

And I believe that was circa 2015 or 2016. And drug abusers are kinda known for gradually escalating their usage
Just like his hero!
Explains a lot.
I wish my job had a doctor on staff handing out drugs…
Granted
Now everyone is on copious amounts of antidepressants.
From what I can tell, a lot of jobs are already like that. It’s almost like society isn’t designed to make people happy 😑

Sleepy Joe is too woke!
Yea well fuck those criminals we don’t need nor want them around anymore. Sell outs. Scumbags. Frauds. Curmudgeon’s.
Hence, having a cup of Joe
Someone order him one of those Dark Brandon mugs
Sleepy Joe? No, sleepless Joe
Meanwhile they’re mum on Marjorie Traitor Greene heckling him from the audience.
Of course. Why would they complain about that? She’s on their team.
