Yes, if you leave out the word ‘stupid’ from the phrase where those two words were obviously meant to go together, you would have a point.
I didn’t have a point. I thought it was an odd choice of words, so I looked up the definition and posted it. And then wake up to downvotes for something I meant to be benign. Not everything has an agenda.
That’ll teach you to share the definitions of words for everyone’s benefit!
It seems that people got a little twisted over this.
And you expect Biden to have a sound mind to understand these memos, let alone to actually remember them for more than a day? Compared to the elderly and dementia patient Biden, Trump is a theoretical physics professor.
Yes, Trump is VERY good with the nuclear! He could have discovered the atomic bomb if he was born a little earlier!
Anyway, if you listen to Biden speak for more than 10 second clips on Fox or some pathetic internet underbelly, it’s extremely obvious that is not accurate. He can answer questions and sound normal for 30-60 minutes, but if he stumbles over a word internet pundits, Fox, newsmax etc will jerk off about it for months. Meanwhile a speech by Trump is basically him talking about how great he is, interrupting himself, sneering and insulting various people for 45 minutes.
Cool, so Trump is now the same age Biden was when he gearing up for this presidency. People with your (incorrect) view were saying Biden was too old then. So that means Trump’s too old now, right? I’d also love to know why a life long stutter equates to dementia. If that’s true, then people I know have had dementia since they learned to talk.
I can’t be the only one not surprised by this
I’d be surprised if it doesn’t come out that he had to have people read documents to him. because he can’t read.
Ok a 50 page memo? That’s pretty friggin long. Depends how many of those you get a day.
But:
I summed up this highly classified memo into Trump’s sort of bombastic language because it was the only way he was gonna understand," Taylor added. “I mean, I literally said in there, ‘You know, if we leave Afghanistan too fast, the terrorists will call us losers. But if we wanna be seen as winners, we need to make sure the Afghan forces have the strength to push back against these criminals.’ I mean, it was that dumb and that’s how you had to talk to him.”
No. The President of the United States of America needs to be able to internalize and contextualize the details of the current geopolitical climate over corn flakes. This “only human” bullshit has got to go.
Absolutely agree with you. The point I wanted to make is that there are different ways to summarise, say, in this example, a 50-page memo. The sad thing here is how the official needed to resort to the good versus evil false dichotomy. This oversimplification to have been required because, unfortunately, Trump is stupid.
I guess I’m saying that it’s a shame that there are probably a lot of smart people trying to make sense of all the geopolitics, picking things apart, critical thinking… but in the end it was all for nought; they had to appeal to someone - Trump - who never really wanted to, nor was able to, internalise or contextualise it.
A 50 Page memo is too long. It is relevant for the discussion of the details between the specialised people, so they reach a highly qualified opinion, but the cause and effects of different decision options need to be summarised on a few pages. Of course the president needs to be able to understand what the bullet points entail, but it is literally impossible for a president of a country the size of the US to read up on the details of every decision.
Yeah I’m a normal human and I have no trouble reading at a highschool level why can’t the president do it?
