I’m waiting for him to call someone a motherfucker
Well next time gandalf steals his bicycle we'll hear it.
Kamala came so close in the debate.
When did bruh replace dude? I can’t believe dude is out of fashion :(
'bruh' is more incredulous, while 'dude' is more friendly
Also, "dude" will still be "dude" in another 40 years while "bruh" will have faded from the lexicon and been replaced by a succession of a couple dozen other things.
Bruh no cap?
Bruh where's my car?
dude, that can't be true.
“He couldn’t solve the problem because deep state.”
There is no zinger, no matter how truthful, that will penetrate the average republican voter’s weaponized schizophrenia.
If he can't do anything about this deep state as president, maybe there's no reason to vote for him.
If the deep state is as deep as he says then they're the ones who made home president the first time.
So the deep state is still there and now you're on the list.
They've weaponized xenophobia too!
Too? I think that’s their entire arsenal. No positive policies. Just fear mongering based on immigration.
No they also use fascist fear mongering about democracy as well (literally trying to claim aren't a democracy and Trump openly saying he'd end elections)
And stupidity
Don't you think he looks tired.
I wish that worked for men 😡
I wish it wasn't construed as an insult, I look tired because I'm tired. I ask if you look tired because you show signs of being tired, I'm not saying you look like shit.
There is some context that you are probably missing. This is a quote from a Dr Who episode where the Doctor uses 6 words to undermine the current prime minister’s administration.

IRL I think it could be an insult or showing sincere concern, depending on the situation
I think my wife has said something similar. If someone said that to me I’d probably be like “yeah… I do need a long nap”.
I've been told that. I usually am tired so it's not exactly surprising that I look that way.
Keep repeating it over and over again and eventually it will.
does trump even remember he was president? i doubt he can remember last week
I’m glad the Democratic establishment has Finally stopped affording him any respect.
They should have taken this approach 20+y ago
44 years ago.
Reagan ruined everything.
Nixon certainly didn't help, that's when Republicans really ramped up stoking discord for political gain. Our decision to get involved and then dig ever deeper into the Vietnam shit sandwich derailed so much potential social progress.
A president that left countless people to die to a pandemic and recommended that they inject bleach. Trump is a monster.
While sending vital medical equipment to his sugar daddy in Russia.
And that was only a few of his many, many crimes in office.
Trump is senile
