I just generally assume that Trump is running because he wants to pardon himself for his many, many crimes.

What baffles me is why it is not standard across the world for anyone seeking public office to have to take a basic mental competency test. Nothing complicated, just the sort of test that's used in diagnosing dementia. I can't imagine Biden or Trump completing it without something being flagged up. There should be a reasonable upper age limit too - let's say 75. Not simply because of the risks of health and mental function, but also because they're not likely to live to see the consequences of their political choices.

Yeah, it seems a little ridiculous that you can be allowed to do a job like running a global superpower without first proving that you're going to be able to remember the name of the leader you're dealing with. Biden got Egypt and Mexico confused the other day. I can't see how it can be some sort of affront to democracy to test that a chosen leader can actually do the job, but I reckon that's exactly how it'd be reported.

This is worth a watch if you enjoy schadenfreude. It contains increasingly desperate video messages from Donald to his supporters.



Trump can't pay his half-billion dollar penalty because no company in their right minds will offer a bond of that amount to an individual, and by his own admission he doesn't have the cash for it.

Hats off to the grift

I'm surprised he can hold onto that thing without suffering third degree burns.

Next up, official Trump "thou shalt hold no other gods before me" idol action figures, only $199.99 + VAT.
