I can't afford eggs, my kid has the whooping cough, and the data center down the road has caused my electricity bill to triple. But at least the mascot for my town's high-school football team is still a drunk guy dressed up as an American Indian.

Jake Tapper, who eviscerated Biden for the sin of growing older, has done everything but help install a chair lift in the White House to cover up Trump's deepening dementia and utter feebleness.
Jake Tapper did a whole interview with Trump by text message? Which means he can't actually confirm it was him. And now everyone's asking even more than before very reasonable questions about the wannabe dictator's health.
