My theory is that Biden needs to stay president because he’s broke and this is the only way he can afford to have housing and benefits

He almost sold his house because he couldn’t afford Beau’s medical bills which prompted Obama to give him a loan lol

Despite being the Delaware senator, friend of credit card companies for 40 years, he never did manage to figure out how to make money from it and just did it for the love of the game

I think that's the most horrible thing about him. He's either so stupid he never figured out how to make a buck for being the trained clapping seal of capital, but then theres the horror answer; he's been a true believer the whole time and never demanded a pay check because all the horror, the slavery, the death, the slaughter, he did it because he believed it was the right thing to do.

Third option: he's never taken the buck because he wanted to stay squeaky clean because deep down he believes he's supposed to be president

"Hey, guys I've been doing your bidding for decades. What will you do for me?"

They tell him they sent $10,000 to a pro-Biden PAC that they control. But did they really? No. Some execs went to Vegas instead. And he sends them a "Thank you" note.

Keeping Hunter out of prison and the morgue costs more than you'd expect

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Biden hoped Hunter can start paying for his own vices with the employment at Burisma, but then Trump got in the way and made him quit

In 21st Century America, the very best elder care facilities are only available to those who prove victorious in The Competition (winning elected office)

Skipping the SW discussion, but what's wrong with two concenting adults snorting Adderall off each other? It's how me and my partner take our ADHD meds.

Seriously though, how is "being senile" better than doing adderall off another person's body, when it comes to discussions of "fit for the office of president"? The adderall lasts for a short while, senility is forever.

It's too cool for the no-fun Democrats, that's what's wrong.

Joe is better than Hunter. So what?

Why would you even do adderall with sex workers? "Let's get wreck on addy, do some math homework, then go to bed early!" Fucking weirdo. (This is an adhd joke)

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Kind Hunter Biden was helping disadvantaged sex workers get their GEDs at night school but needed something to deal with his ADHD.

My doc proscribed me too much Addy so I gave some to my friends (it was starting to pile up, I had a literal box full). We had a blast going out clubbing, I felt like I was herding cats. Except for one... One of my friends was just becoming extremely normal and geared down and they couldn't understand why. Fun way to learn you have ADHD

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

I love this genre of story. Stuff like "We all did coke and everyone started laughing and having a good time and being really chatty while I sat on the couch petting the cat and that's how I learned I had ADHD".

Would you say one's response to Adderall is a reliable indicator to whether one has ADHD?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

No. I don't know enough about how adderall works to speak confidently like that. I know it's an indicator, but that's about it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

I'd say if it just makes you kinda normal you might, but it not doing that doesn't necessarily rule out ADHD, not every stim works for everybody.

It's more of a hey you should probably look into this than a confirmation on it's own.

Red Dawn but we win because we invade outside business hours and Biden can't order the counterstrike.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Can't wait for these people to eat shit in November, honestly.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

I don't even feel bad about it.

We legitimately tried for years to give them good advice that running an octagenarian that 75% of the general public doesn't want to run paired with somebody who couldn't crack 10% in any primary was a bad idea.

They told us we were just Russian trolls or we didn't know how elections work.

Congrats, you got exactly what you want.

Watching the defectors having a moment of clarity and feeling completely confused when they have to point out things like HES THE PRESIDENT is a cherry on top.

Doing Pokémon battles in my mind but the Pokémon are 2 old men and the battle arena is Twitter posts

I'm actually unironically just like five minutes from calling these people the worst things I can think of

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago
