The Biden campaign has joined Truth Social, the social media company founded by Donald Trump, to troll Biden's once and likely future general election opponent.
“We just joined Truth Social, mostly because we thought it would be very funny,” it explained. “Follow us there for truths and retruths or whatever they call them.”
That's not even the most ridiculous claim about his health that his supporters obediently swallowed. Ronny "Candyman" Jackson said that if he watched his diet, he could live to be 200.
If you knew nothing about Donald Trump, blatantly lying about your physical fitness to this extent should be damning. If he's willing to just straight up lie about his health or about his golf game, what wouldn't he lie about?
To be honest, physical virility isn't that important to me.
The only reason that aspect matters to me re:trump is that he claims to be healthy and of certain dimensions, but clearly isn't.
No matter what your physical self is, as long as you don't pretend to be fuckin superman, you can have my vote if I can get on board with your policies.
I had a conversation with a guy that seemed sort of amused by Trump's BS so we started talking about it and he acted like he was above it all. Then he mentioned how at least Trump was tough and when I pushed back he brought up the time Biden 'fell off his bike'. To him that was a legitimate argument for who we should have as a leader.
Falling off a bike is HARD. You have a few vectors of velocity working against you, and you're higher up of the ground than you're used to. I used to be a competitive snowboarder and some of the falls i've taken on my road bike hurt so much more than some of my biggest snow and ice crashes.
I thought you were saying it's hard to fall of a bike at first, like you'd be a dumbass to even do that. Now I see you're saying it HURTS! I can get onboard with that as I still have a road rash scar on my hip from falling off at high speed on my daily commute 10 years ago.
To be fair, I was being a dumbass: going way too fast in the rain and not paying enough attention, so when I swerved out of the way of an oncoming bike, I hit the bike path kerb and went rolling down the sidewalk. You can't really last minute swerve on 2 wheels.
Double dumbass because I wasn't wearing a helmet and could have been so much worse, but at the time I was most upset about tearing the shoulder off my favourite jacket...
