Where have you provided evidence that Trump can make more coherent sentences than Biden? There are just many examples of Trump being unable to form sentences as Biden. In fact in my view, Trump is worse, because he creates great long sentences where he loses track and they become nonsensical. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parley 7,918 Posted September 4 Come on Trump is sharp as a tack. Anyway bit of a pointless argument. WE know you don't like Trump.

Ok if you say so , did you see the meeting with Israel pm explain that one sorry can’t take you seriously if you think that Biden is more coherent than Trump , show us a clip of what you are claiming of trump Biden gets lost leaving the stage , I blame the people around him as he is clear not a well man it’s disgraceful to allow it.

The Americans really need to put a retirement age on politicians. I mean, I'm 70 and like to think I still have all my marbles, but we can't deny that our powers do decline as we get older. High-level politicians need to be at the top of their game, able to work long hours and travel without tiring. Not many 80-year-olds are up to that. The bigger threat, as you say, is dementia. Ronald Reagan's sons have confirmed he had Alzheimer's long before he left office, even though it wasn't officially confirmed until six years later. His aides covered it up, and it's a matter of debate whether they did that to protect him, or so they could use him to achieve their own ends. Is the same happening now? We don't know. What I find really scary is that I've listened to many of Trump's speeches -- the full, uncut versions, not the carefully edited ones or the ones where he's on teleprompter -- and to me, he sounds worse than Biden. Biden seems sleepy or confused at times but when he's on form -- which he often is --he speaks in complete sentences, makes cogent arguments and sticks to the point. Trump rambles, forgets what he's talking about, changes the subject abruptly, repeats meaningless slogans, and makes bizarre statements. If there was a retirement age for politicians, neither would be standing for office and the US would be much better off. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry I have not seen Trump rambling plenty of Biden , I understand you don’t like trump that’s fair enough. what gets me is all the double standards , Hilary found out about Russia gate. Obama knew as did Biden through in all the e mails and servers destroyed nothing but for some reason they are hell bent on getting trump no matter what. look at the drug scandal in the White House all brushed under the table plea deal for hunter Biden not to be prosecuted for any further crimes, thankfully they judges saw through that As said a fair few times there has to be better candidates to take the top job out of a population of 400 million Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why can't a population of 360 million produce someone younger and more competent who would appeal to the voters than these two fumbling geriatrics?

I have seen plenty. All you have to do is make an effort to watch videos of his uncut speeches and interviews. The man is clearly impaired in some way. But obviously, when you're reading media that supports Trump, they're going to cut out all the embarrassing bits. Just like they cut out all the bits of Biden videos where he makes sense.

It's a very difficult situation, but if Russia had invaded the UK, would you have advised the British government to accept the invasion? That's a nonsense argument. Guarantee that Ukraine would never have joined NATO and the EU might have helped. If you are looking for a similar situation, probably the Cuban missile crisis is the closest, triggered by USA placing missiles in Turkey. A NATO Ukraine could have had missiles close enough to Moscow to make first strike a real possibility for the USA. And whilst it may have been a stretch for this to happen, if Russia hadn't acted now, they may not have been able to act later. The strength of the Ukrainian defence gives some idea of how much the USA has invested in arming and training Ukraine. Once they started down that road war was likely. It's a sensitive complicated situation. A compatible situation would be northern Ireland in the 70s and 80s, if say the American government had been actively arming the IRA. How would the UK have responded to that? Probably pretty similar to the way Russia responded. If you prod the bear enough, the bear bites. We've been prodding the bear.
