    The high chair obviously belongs with tantrum-toddler Trump and his childish, preschool name calling.

    So I guess, by the process of elimination, that Ramirez is suggesting that the wheelchair belongs to Biden. And sure, while Biden fell off a bicycle once while coming to a stop (got his foot caught in a stirrup-style pedal), the fact is that BIDEN RIDES BICYCLES and is in far better shape than the bloated, obese, cholesterol-clogged Trump. After Biden’s little bicycle mishap, Trump mockingly admitted that he would never go near one of those things, inadvertently acknowledging how much less fit he is.

    But a wheelchair? Disqualifying for a president? Seriously? I seem to remember a president who won four elections, guided a recovery from a Republican (Harding – Coolidge – Hoover) Great Depression, and won World War II — all from a wheelchair.

    I’d take the wheelchair over the high chair any day of the week, as inappropriate and inaccurate as the attempted (but failed) insult is.

    And yet Biden can ride a bike! (Another ‘both sides’ argument for the right.)

    ‘Playing chicken’: Conservative says Trump has a creative ‘excuse’ to ‘get out of debates’

    Donald Trump knows he can’t handle a debate against Joe Biden, and he thinks he’s found his way out, according to a formerly conservative columnist.

    Columnist Jennifer Rubin — a conservative until Donald Trump came along — appeared on MSNBC on Sunday, where she was asked about Fox News’ recent attack against Biden. Specifically, Fox hosts have been claiming that Biden is “jacked up” and needs to be drug tested before any debate with Trump.

    “Come on,” the host said to Rubin after playing a clip from the conservative network.

    Rubin explained that “this is a new Republican thing because Biden did so well at the State of the Union.”

    “They have to make up a story which is that he’s jacked up. It is also becoming the excuse that Donald trump will use, I suspect, to get out of the debates.”

    The wheelchair is for crazy Trump after they wrap him up in a straight jacket.

    Har, har, har. Wouldn’t it a startling change if 2 adult political candidates could sit or stand and explain their policies? Naw. Has that ever happened since the Lincoln-Douglas debates? As I have read, Honest Abe got in a few licks, but 1-1/2 to 2 hours of debate on who has told the most lies? “Yes you did. No I didn’t.” Boring television.

    How about pistols at 20 paces? That might be the most appropriate for the Trump-Biden showdown. Naw, the NRA would approve, but there has to be background checks and a 7-day waiting period. Hamilton and Burr tried. Didn’t out well for the good guy. Burr was a scoundrel.

    A duel with epees at dawn in a foggy grave yard? Jackson, Calhoun, and others have tried that.

    Let’s be original. How about an MMA smack down? That would be fun and Honest Abe, who liked a good scrap, might agree. Bring it on.

    Another both siderism attempt by Ramirez.

    Maybe one of the ‘debate’ rules should be that neither candidate is allowed to use more than one hand to drink water.

    Neither is realistic. But, given cartoon exaggeration, the one with the food tray seems reasonable for the fat one. The other one ought to have the two wheels lined up front to back, since Biden really does ride a bike… some.

    Let’s see…one candidate acts like a tantrum toddler and the other candidate actually exercises. So Trump is in the high chair and by the end of the debate, Biden is pushing Trump off in the wheelchair?

    From what I have heard, there will not be an audience at the debate, and the moderator will turn off the mikes when it is not your turn to speak.

    The rules are that the mikes are turned off when your time is up. How that keeps screaming from being picked up by the other person’s mike is questionable, possibly sound proof booths? Actually, I would really like to see Biden looking like he did in the State of the Union speech, with muted ranting in the background.

    There will be no audience, so no audience interruptions, which was a standard procedure until MAGAts got involved. It wasn’t necessary to ban an audience because civilized behavior was observed by all those in attendance. Since they can’t bar those who have no concept of civilized behavior, they are barring everyone.

    And, the networks that will be filming are CNN and ABC. This doesn’t prohibit other networks from picking up the feed and reporting on it. All in all, this sounds like an actual debate worth watching. They were becoming childishly unprofessional before Trump was involved and he has turned them into a spectacle that should have been appalling and embarrassing to any American adult watching.

    Right – toddler chair – correct for the ketchup throwing Trump.Left – should be a bicycle for Biden.

    Honestly, I’d prefer a younger person, but Biden is not a threat to Democracy, Trump encouraged the Jan 6th insurrection riot. Biden signed Infrastructure Bills and gotten projects up and running while Donald was best at declaring “Infrastructure Weeks”. Biden developed NATO into an even stronger force against Putin’s threats to the free world while the United Nations actually laughed, giggled and snorted at Trump’s bald face lies. I could go on and on but I’m not as organized as @DDWiz.

    so which one did you, Ramirez, last use? The reality is both are testaments to the dysfunctional derelict delirious and demented first generation Baby Boomers that conceived, birthed, nurtured, and bequeathed Political Correctness, Identity Politics, Deflect-n-Project Wokeness to their children, grand-children and even great grandchildren…

    I am looking for a President that can make insightful decisions on foreign and domestic policies not one that can compete on Dancing With the Stars. I’m glad the late Stephan Hawking didn’t have to meet the same shallow expectations.

    Well, Mr. Ramirez, you may have hit a new record for provoking the most vitriol in one frame. Surely you won 1st place today.

    What is so telling is how much total fear exists among so many who are already believing and speaking like Trump has already won the election.

    My advice: Aim that vitriol at those in charge (DNC & RNC) who enabled these two old Farts to make the ballot instead of dissing your neighbors when we should all be trying to get along with.

    Be neighborly!

    The Associated Press

    Trump’s social media account shares a campaign video with a headline about a ‘unified Reich’

    A video posted to Donald Trump’s account on his social media network Monday included references to a “unified Reich” among hypothetical news headlines if he wins the election in November.

    The headline appears among messages flashing across the screen such as “Trump wins!!” and “Economy booms!” Other headlines appear to be references to World War I.

    The word “Reich” is often largely associated with Nazi Germany’s Third Reich, though the references in the video Trump shared appear to be a reference to the formation of the modern pan-German nation, unifying smaller states into a single Reich, or empire, in 1871.
