I am avoiding linking to the Fox article so as to not send them traffic. Can’t make this stuff up.

    Declassified documents show that former presidents like Reagan and JFK were on extreme cocktails of drugs.

    Trump famously had that pic showing his oval office desk drawer full of Ephedrine (the good EU kind, not pseudo)

    I would be utterly shocked if Biden was drug free.

    But does it matter? Biden’s energy level and coherence were well above expectations.

        I’m still surprised people in the US actually vote only for people so old they can’t reasonably do the job properly. I mean what’s up with that?

        I guess the cynic in me thinks only people that old have a lifetime of being beholden to the powers behind the curtain to have their trust to receive big campaign funding. But that doesn’t explain Trump. He was never really ‘favoured’ by the establishment as far as I gather. Not that I think he was a good president of course, don’t get me wrong!

          “I’m still surprised people in the US actually vote only for people so old they can’t reasonably do the job properly. I mean what’s up with that?”

          When it always comes down to 2 choices, it ends up being not much of a choice. 😐
