“Look, I can go ramp, I can go stair, I can go another stair. Another stair in the back. I have a stair,” Trump declared, pointing to each before returning to Biden once more. “He could never find the stair.”
How tf is this real life?
Do dementia patients normally lose the ability to use prepositions and plurals? I guess it's one manifestation of aphasia.
I have a stair.
I have an apple.
...unh! Apple-stair.
He's regressing to toddler-speak.
If only he were toilet trained he’d have all three.
He can go ramp and he can go stair, but can he go potty?
He goes in his pants all the time
He still needs the cheerio to pee in the big boy potty.
He should go stair more often, tall buildings
God I hope when he’s strokes out it’s on live tv.
I hope everyone thinks he's doing some kind of depraved impression or a skit for a while, long enough for help to be too late. It would be poetic at least, if not just.
I hope for this too. If he is behind closed doors when it happens you can rest assured that the GOP, his administration, and Fox News will cover it up for as long as possible. Mitch McConnell was a test run for just this occasion.
I'm not sure if would even matter. Dude could cough up blood, give a death rattle, and then keel over. His "team" will load him into an ambulance and claim he's getting expert treatment, with a miraculous recovery in a few days with pictures which "totally aren't AI generated".
Or even, he does croak, all the bad stuff gets laid at his feet and diehard Republicans feel safe voting for the rest again.
"AND, I haven't done a poo poo in my pants yet."
He's doing poo poo with his mouth now.
He always has
Poop goes in, poop goes out.
When it happens, if he notices at all, he blames it on antifa.
Ah, but can he go top-floor window? He needs to show us his powers.
but can he do a summersault?
No summersault, only sexual assault
🏅
Defenestration is such a fun word.
what a world do we live in...
Trump has praised former President Barack Obama (pictured) for his prowess at walking down stairs (AFP/Getty)
The president even paid a rare compliment to one of his rivals while discussing stairs in Quantico, Virginia, last year.
“Don’t bop down the stairs,” Trump cautioned. “The one thing with Obama, I had zero respect for him as president. But he would bop down those stairs I’ve never seen.”
Singing gently and miming a walking motion, Trump continued: “Da-da, da-da, da-da, bop, bop, bop.”
“He’d go down the stairs, wouldn't hold on, I said it’s great,” he added. “I don’t want to do it; I guess I could do it.”
This picture crashes boost for me, no idea why

i suspect it might have something to do with the two dots in the url, which i have never seen and have no idea wtf they are. i reuploaded the image, so it should be fine now if it was the case.
Ah yeah, that fixed it. Interesting.
Trump claimed that former President Biden
Psst. I wish we were still in the Biden administration, Trump.
"I can go ramp, I can go stair. I can go hell, I belong there"
Can you go hell?
Via ramp or stair. Either will do.
Heck, just drop him down there.
Yeet that fucker into deep space
Save energy, chuck him into a caldera and let the gods of the underworld figure out what do to with him after that.
“And heavy truck shipments have hit an all-time high, the highest in the history of our country under the Trump administration,” he said. “So American trucking is back.”
No, this is a lie. The graph shows, not surprisingly, that trump is lying about heavy truck shipments. Why tell the truth when a lie comes so much more easily to those lips. smh.

When he goes 6ft under, I'll be impressed.
And people even still make fun of Hillary for making the Mom-joke "Pokemon Go...to the polls", FFS.
Meanwhile, donnie dumb-dumb can go ramp, go stair. I bet he sometimes go plane and he go car, too!
There's no 'b' in "dum-dum" DUHH!
I really hope the /s is unnecessary
I heard he often goes (in his) pants too.
Then go die.
can't go potty though can he
This is the metric by which all presidents should be judged... it's why we're winning so much, obviously.
I’d like to go back to having a president where that wasn’t a talking point. I would make an exception for an untimely wheelchair.
a source of never-ending amazement.
Great picture, the classic double fisting two cocks dance routine. I'm sure he can find a way for four cocks, well Bubba probably already helped make that happen.
