President Joe Biden told Democratic governors during a meeting at the White House on Wednesday that part of his plan going forward is to stop scheduling events after 8 p.m. so that he can get more sleep, according to three sources briefed on his comments.

Yeah he's not dropping out. Rbg all over again lol. Wonder what it will take for libs to stop supporting the democratic party.

Random story but a friend of mine (who's south Asian so not your standard kkk trump supporter) is hoping trump wins because Trump will put money into the stock market and he will benefit. My friend makes 70k a year... This is how completely out of touch people are.

Trump will put money into the stock market

The stock market literally reached an all-time high under Biden, and most Americans are still struggling. Because 90% of stocks are owned by the top 10%...

Technicaly ATH under Biden but relative growth Trump still had a sizeable lead, counting both from election day up to COVID and since COVID to election day.

The only thing BIden offers to the market is a relative predictability about future wars specially against China. Otherwise the "market" prefers Trump in almost every scenario.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Health

In 1999, Ginsburg was diagnosed with colon cancer, the first of her five bouts with cancer. [...] By February 2020, the cancer had returned but this news was not released to the public. However, by May 2020, Ginsburg was once again receiving treatment for a recurrence of cancer. She reiterated her position that she "would remain a member of the Court as long as I can do the job full steam", adding that she remained fully able to do so.

She died four months later on September 18.

What can you say? Clearly her death was totally unexpected. She still had another 10 years of being a ghoul in her lol

Good thing nothing important ever happens after 8pm.

LMAO they're admitting he's only coherent during the day

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He called Putin and Xi and they promised not to launch any nukes after 8pm.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago

Moscow time

Xi, all you gotta do is wait until 8pm EST to hit the button. xi-button

If the title was "events after sundown" - it would be a straight up Onion headline. Man, we are fucked.

This is proof Trump has lost a step in his old age.

If this were 2016 he would have riffed on this at his events and really gotten the crowd busting up.

Now he's just going through the motions smh

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Are you sure he isn't saving his heat for 8:01?

Lovely, now he's just like my parents. Is he going to give a presser on the need to serve prune juice at state dinners? Maybe do an at length interview with the Post on the need to have a walk-in bathtub installed at the White House.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 3 months ago (2 children)

What's frustrating is how he's not like my folks, near the same age. They're getting their steps in, adjust to European time as fast as anyone else and one can go full-on Putin with the history lectures, nailing detail after detail with no regard to how late it's getting. And yet the media portrays the concern about his brain being pudding as ageism. It's not about old people in general, it's about this particular old fuck who doesn't know which Biden he is.

Different people are different. I have an 85 year old inlaw who is physically feeble but still has a sharp mind. She has Fox News brainworms, but can hold a conversation and remember things that happened yesterday. She walks slow, but still wins family poker nights.

I also watched my 70 year old grandmother riddled with dementia try to eat a banana without peeling it.

This is not ageism, it is acknowledging reality.

I avoid any social events after 8 pm too, but of course I'm not asking people to give me tens of millions of dollars so I can stay in as the head of government.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

what if something happens in the waking hours of 9 pm. what then joe.

wow, i love a president who practices self-care!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago

Maybe Joe should move to China. The government has reduced the amount of homework so sleep time can increase.
