"I asked Sean not to joke about it. I said, 'Honestly, I don’t think it looks good for you or for anybody to joke about it. You can speak about it if you want, but I don’t think you should joke about it.'"

Said Donald Trump, quoted in "Trump says he told Hannity not to joke about Biden’s cognitive ability" (The Hill).

Joe "I don't shower with Natalie anymore because she wouldn't stroke my leg hair" Biden's performance at the Air Force Academy graduation yesterday was almost the perfect metaphor for current-year America, and the world:

- Gets lost on stage as an Academy escort guides him from the taxiway on the threshold. Roger tower...holding. Holding. Awaiting clearance for takeoff...holding.

- Joe, Joe, Joe of the Jungle...HE'S STRONG AS HE CAN BE...oh no watch out for that black sandbag! HE PROMPTLY FALLS TO HIS KNEES!

- The twitterati flashback posting of all the times Biden and the MSM claimed Joe could walk Trump into the ground (when Joe "I am all that is man" Biden isn't beating him to a pulp "behind the schoolhouse" that is...)

Effing clown world. No wonder China is telling PLA senior staff to prepare for "the worst case scenario". America. Picture of health. Instilling confidence wherever we go.

TRUMP POUNCES on Biden's dementia.

wendybar said...

"The truth is Trump is not a bully, but I'm fact as he observed himself, he is a counter puncher. His words are in self-defense. His targets are always those who have wronged him or maligned him. His targets are powerful people. They are his political opponents or powerful members of the media who have the means to respond.

Trump could have easily mocked Biden and his incapacity, but he didn't. Still better, he urged others not to."

A rare moment of clarity from Trump. Even he understands that if age becomes an issue in the campaign it is not helpful for him.

Kate said...

After watching the clip of Biden falling yesterday at the Air Force Academy, I agree. That wasn't a trip or a slip. That was an old man who can no longer control his feet. I hope Trump really said this, because Biden's decline is accelerating.

Also, it's smart politics. Trump's mockery has crossed the line in the past. Taking the high road is a good look for him.

Old man hates when people make jokes about a different old man. Why is that surprising? If Trumps gets elected HE will the the decrepit old man falling down on stage, forgetting his words, and shitting his pants on the reg.

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

The man is still capable of surprising me in a good way. I’d almost forgotten that surprises could be good after 2+ years of Let’s Go Brandon in charge. Refreshing!

rcocean said...

I agree. And people can see for themselves that Biden is an old man in need of a walker. No need to pile on.

But will Trump get any credit for being nice? No. That's why listening to "moderates" and those who love "civility" or crab about Trump being a "Bully" is a loser. Because they won't vote for Trump - no matter what.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

Again - Trump is easing up on Biden and flinging monkey poo at DeSantis.

Trump is moving left.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

Hannity is the ultimate and supreme Trump-Humper. Hannity will obey Trump's commands.

Crook Biden should be mocked day in and day out. He is the mob's empty husk and he barely gets around without massive aid, and he does not even know where he is. Did Trump mention anything about Biden family corruption? nah.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

Trump - a democrat - was always better at lying and trashing his own team.

FDT.

Hannity's studio: cave of the toady.

Yancey Ward said...

Trump is just wrong- Biden and his family should be mocked mercilessly for allowing him to be on this public stage as President.

Darkisland said...

Our president emeritus is, above all else, a salesman. The first rule of sales is never badmouth the competition.

Talk about how you are better. Talk about the specific ways you are better. But don't trash talk. Not on critical issues like this, anyway.

As for trash talking everyone else, his "mean tweets", they are not the competition. Only Brandon is the competition.

And as with every rule, never doesn't really mean never ever. There will be exceptions when it might be appropriate to trash the competition. But they are very rare.

Oh, they definitely should joke about it. Humor is the best way to make a narrative take hold, especially among the young.

mikee said...

I, on the other hand, suggest that if you don't joke about Biden's dementia, you have to take it seriously, and nobody seems willing to do that - yet. I also suggest that taking his mental status seriously is no joke, and will occur eventually, and sooner rather than later, by more and more people. Laugh it up over the US President's mental deficiency while you can.

Gusty Winds said...

After Biden's fall yesterday at the Air Force Academy graduation, they took him to the doctor to make sure he was ok.

Doctor said to Biden, "Mr. President, you sprained your right knee and left ankle. You also have dementia".

Biden replied, "Well, thank goodness I didn't sprain anything".

Inga said...

How cute, Trump is trying to portray himself in a kinder and more gentler light. He got word of white suburban women voters who are repulsed by his boorishness. Too late, won’t work.

Mountain Maven said...

Trump wants to go easy on Biden while fighting dirty with DeSantis.

Dude1394 said...

There is no way that the absolutely worst person in the world would say this.

Two comments:

Trump is moving left << This almost made me laugh. That counts as good cheer on a Friday.

Trump is just wrong- Biden and his family should be mocked mercilessly for allowing him to be on this public stage as President. Actually the gist of your "should be" comment is correct, and Biden should be heckled for being on stage and his family mocked for abusing him so publicly. The finer point is that Trump said that mocking Joe's cognitive ability should not be done.

I've got to say, Trump staking out the compassionate stance was NOT what I expected after that sandbagging. And no, Hooker, being compassionate is not a left wing value. Lying about Republicans is. So you're more left than Trump today according to your "he done criticized sumpin I like" line of thought.

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

But Inga Trump opposed a six week abortion ban? No props from the angry white leftist woman today! Consider this hard truth: Trump regularly demonstrates more compassion than creepy mean old Joe. It's true. That's how Fauci and Birx were able to snowjob him on the "2 weeks to stop the spread" lie, which Birx describes at length in her memoir as a Bid Con against big Don. You dwell on the side of cruelty and low character now dear. Just wallow in it. Embrace the suck.

Newsflash: It's PRIMARY season. You know the same time of year when Kamala called Biden an irredeemable racist hack politician who didn't want her and her jungle buddies* bused to white schools. She went after him harder than she goes after Trump. Duh. And water, FYI, is wet.

*Googlebing Biden and his past "jungle" comments for some good reading.

walter said...

Don't laugh at him.
He promised a "surge" at the border during his campaign.
Gettin' 'er done!
How are those bunks coming along, Inga?
You wanted 'em, you got 'em.
No charging room rates either like those big city hotels.
Do it out of white suburban female love for "migrants".

Rabel said...

Biden tripped over a sandbag that was supporting one of his teleprompters.

That's just dripping with Karma.

Lem Vibe Bandit said...

Trump is a decent guy. I’ve never heard anything different.

Big Mike said...

If Trump really said that, then it’s yet another example of his lack of elementary political common sense.

Drago said...

Flip-side Inga (Hunter Biden's tax payer funded Hooker): "Trump - a democrat - was always better at lying and trashing his own team."

Go ahead and run with that. It so dumb its just gotta work.

And make sure you tell the deplorables they are democrats too.

After all, when you go Full Thelma and Louise, you shouldnt hold anything back.

Exit question: when Hunter Biden's Tax Payer Funded Hooker walks into Walmart, can she "smell" the Trump voters too?

walter said...

Yeah, There were a series of sandbags on those Air Farce 1 stairs too.

PB said...

Joe's performance is so variable and erratic, the only explanation is they are having a difficult time finding the right kind and dosages of pharmaceuticals to level him out.

“Trump is moving left.“
Oh. My. Gawwd.

How desperate.

Rabel: "Biden tripped over a sandbag that was supporting one of his teleprompters."

Has russia collusion lunatic Inga blamed Putin for installing a russian sandbag where Biden was walking?

If she hasn't yet, dont worry. She will.

Andrew said...

Effective passive-aggressive insults is a Trump specialty.

Drago said...

Russia Collusion Inga: "How cute, Trump is trying to portray himself in a kinder and more gentler light."

Remember when you called those of us who didn't buy into the Covid hysteria literal "murderers"?

Remember when you called those of us who didn't buy into your russia collusion lies "treasonous traitors"?

Remember when you declared the MS13 machete murderers of 2 NYC high school girls had a "spark of divinity"? Not the high school girl victims of the murderers. You said nothing about them. The murderers: those were the dudes with the "spark of divinity". Not the girls though.

Good times. Good times.

donald said...

Joe Biden is a corrupt scumbag and Inga feels sorry for him.

walter said...

Was Inga all wee-weed up about those intelligence folks lining up to claim Hunter laptop a Russian plant?
