Good sweet holy flip. I think it's time to go. The lunatics are in control. Is it something to do with getting their teeth unnaturally whitened that turns people into obnoxious clowns?
The blithering moron called Louie Gohmert gave up his US House seat to run for Texas Attorney General. In a blessing for all of the United States, he's currently languishing in 4th place in the Republican primary, thus, for now, ending his political career.
Joe Biden flubs speech appearing to call Ukrainians ‘Iranian people’ during SOTU

You’re not wrong. He has a WELL documented speech impediment that he has battled since he was a child.
he also looks like he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about most of the time
It was a pretty horrific choice for the people of America, hopefully in a few years there's better options!

Believe it or not, decades ago he was considered among the better orators in the Democratic Party, back when the competition was a lot stronger.
He's always been a word salad gaffe machine. He speaks with passion, which people like, but also boots word choice with regularity. He doesn't just make up the language as he goes along the way Bush 43 did, but part of the reason neither was a great student is that neither is particularly good at precision with the English language.
Having slowed down a bit due to age, people equate these mistakes with senility. The reality is that none of this is new.
Biden is not a good speaker. Do I cringe every time I see him speaking publicly? Yes. Do I hope he doesn't say something stupid, giving red meat to the mouth breathing GOP and their followers? Absolutely.
Did any of us on this thread want Biden to win the Democratic primary? No.
But he's who ultimately gave us the best chance of kicking a racist Russian asset buffoon out of the White House. And for that alone, I am grateful. He's done superbly well thus far in his term, given the degree of difficulty. I've been pleasantly surprised by his performance thus far, as I'm sure many others who are objective would say. Has he been perfect? No. Who is?
So stop with the semantics. It's tiresome.

agree with all of this.
Still don't want him to run in 2024 tho.
Might throw a few quid on Jamie Raskin.
