That’s true. I’d pick that over thieves and murderers any time though. Especially as a politician to vote for.

I’d prefer not to die in a pandemic because a president is afraid of THE AUTISMS, but you do you.

Somebody quoted him saying that his family is vaccinated.
Not everyone likes to decide for others as much as you do.

What did I decide for others and when did I decide it?

No one cares

How would you know who cares or not, if you are not even a person by my measure?

“Let’s imagine: It’s time to elect a world leader, and your vote counts. Which would you choose:
“Candidate A: Associates with ward healers and consults with astrologists; has had two mistresses; chain-smokes and drinks eight to ten martinis a day.
“Candidate B: Was kicked out of office twice; sleeps until noon; used opium in college; drinks a quart of brandy every evening.
“Candidate C: Is a decorated war hero, a vegetarian, doesn’t smoke, drinks an occasional beer, and has had no illicit love affairs.
“Which of these candidates is your choice? You don’t really need any more information, do you? Candidate A is Franklin Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston Churchill. Candidate C is Adolf Hitler.”

Okay, but he also has admitted to have decreased cognitive function and memory problems because of the brain worms. I don’t think that it’s a horrible bias to say that people who have decreased cognitive function and memory problems because of brain worms probably shouldn’t be president.

I’m not sure why you’re not aware of this, but brains don’t grow back.

None of that has anything to do with policy.
If you pick someone based on this criteria you’re a fucking idiot.
Politicians are there to set policy you stupid fuck…not be a cult of personality.
