If this was Biden, we’d hear no end of how he has dementia.

    Republican legislation is now pushing a bill to change the name from Sioux City to Sioux Falls to cover Trump’s blunder.

        The hypocrisy, sure.

        But also the, “If you were traveling there to give a fucking speech, you’d make sure you got it right” factor too.

      I hate Trump because of his terrible politics, his horrible personality, and all of his criminal activities, including leading a failed insurrection.

      We have enough bad things to say about him without making a big deal out of nothing.

      We even have a lot of shit we can point at if we want to question his mental state, like how he said that windmills were killing whales, and his huge recent revelation that the word “us” was spelled U-S, which he thought he was the first person to realize.

      Yes, Republicans would be all over Biden if he made this mistake, but these are the same morons who decided that vaccines were bad during a pandemic, but that it made sense to go blind eating horse dewormer that didn’t actually fight the disease.

    I wouldn’t normally think it’s a big deal to mix up two similar-sounding cities— once I got on a flight to Greenville and the flight attendant got on the speaker and said “welcome to flight [xxx] to Greensboro,” causing momentary panic— but this is part of a pattern. He recently has said he beat Obama in an election, that Jeb Bush was president, that Biden could get us into World War II, and several more. Taken in isolation any of these things could be dismissed as a slip of the tongue but taken all together, it does suggest the guy might be losing his grip.
