The Sad Cognitive Decline of a President

Detainees are only one part of the equation…

I am not sure what you mean? Do you mean the number that were allowed into the country ultimately?

Here is another graph showing "encounters" will illegal immigrants, which appears to be similar. The # of illegals detained or encountered by Border Patrol did not change much from President Obama to President Trump.

Say, @LuFins-Dad , what’s your preferred metric for border crossing, and what would constitute a passing grade using your preferred metric?

The number of people crossing the border, legal and illegal.

Illegal, zero
Legal, whatever

8M since Biden took office, amIright?

(Not sure if this is part of his cognitive decline or he is lying or maybe a combination of both)

Not too long ago
Gov DeSantis is a "DeSaster"
"very average republican governor with great public relations"

Now

Neither. It’s the art of the con at work. play.

LOL he's done that forever. Hate someone one day, love them the next. He called Pence a loser before picking him as his VP candidate in 2016.

When you have lost Fox News..................

During a broadcast of Donald Trump's speech at a "Get Out the Vote" rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina on Friday evening, Fox News host Neil Cavuto cut into the footage to point out inaccuracies in what was being said by the former president and 2024 Republican frontrunner.

Taking issue with Trump claiming credit for the market going up while, in the same breath, blaming Biden for inflated gas prices and whatever else, Cavuto said, "We'll continue monitoring the president's remarks and I mean no offense to him or some of you who might want to continue to hear him, but I did have to say that even though the former president is entitled to his opinions, he's not entitled to his own set of facts."

Making mention of the fact that the market is indeed going up, but that it has nothing to do with Trump, Cavuto went on to shoot down his claim that gas prices are at $6 a gallon, sourcing the real price as being an average of $3.26 a gallon.

Ending on Trump's usual song and dance about the 2020 election being stolen from him, Cavuto reminded viewers that the issue has been investigated by everyone and their uncle, even by some judges appointed by Trump himself, and that there's been no evidence found to back his claim on that.

Sad Neil even has to correct those basic facts. Honest conservatism will return one day.

Sounds like Trump uses the same method for determining gas prices as he does for property values

Meanwhile, Mr. Biden sez... https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/joe-biden-joke-about-sex-with-jill-biden-raises-eyebrows/ar-BB1iMNDI

As of today, premium is about $5.20/gallon in California.

So, a reporter is doing a journalism by pointing out the errors in a candidates speech.

Good for him.

Now, let's see the stenographers at NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN do that with the Big Guy.

[taiwan_girl]

Whether or not other outlets "bash" President Biden or not, it doesn't change the "lies" of President Trumps speech.

(We need to start over with two new candidates)

[taiwan_girl]

This is (unintentionally) funny and this thread is as good a place to put this as anywhere.

Speaking at the Black Conservative Federation Gala in Columbia, South Carolina, the former president leaned into all the criminal charges against him, telling the crowd about how he’d been indicted, and then “indicted a second time, and a third time, and a fourth time.”

He went on to claim that “a lot of people” told him “that’s why the Black people like me,

“I like to call myself a social. justice. warrior. I dunno if you’ve heard the term… social justice warrior.. I invented it…”

And...He's picking up black support, particularly males.
