      I genuinely think I have a crush on her. She consistently smacks these GOP losers around and does it with a smile.

        She is awesome - but I hope they don’t intend on running her for president - not because I think she would do any less than a fantastic job, but because we have proven even women in this country won’t vote for a woman president. Meanwhile we have children in 5th grade drama running things. “But a woman would be emotional”.

          Sounds like DNC logic - "Let’s not allow anyone who isn’t a right-leaning, but plausibly-moderate, cis-white person to run. We don’t want to divide our support. 🤦‍♂️

    When we examine her Test Scores, we will find out that she is NOT qualified for office

    I’ve got $1,000 on AOC’s test scores over trump’s; especially since he doesn’t know how to capitalize words properly and since she didn’t have a rich father that made huge donations to her college to get her in.

      I don’t think there’s a person on the planet who would take that bet in good faith, except maybe Trump himself.

      He truly believes he’s a genius. Everyone else on the planet, including his supporters, knows deep down that he’s by far the dumbest person to hold the office.

    Ocasio-Cortez submitted on Saturday that Trump’s decision to bomb three Iranian nuclear sites was ground for impeachment, arguing that his “disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.”

          This is the guy that probably actually believes the BS height/weight that he got some doctor to issue, LOL. Surprised he has not had a doctor tell everyone that he has a 14 inch dong, too. In any case, he’d probably believe that, too. :)

    He really thinks this cognitive test he took is an IQ test or in any way measures intelligence doesn’t he? It checks for signs of dementia. It doesn’t have anything on it that is complicated, measures knowledge or critical thinking skills. It’s basic association, memory, and recognition testing. A neurotypical 6 year old can do it.

        Unfortunately, he’s a clinical narcissist, so he really does genuinely have the ability to completely delude himself over his own superiority regardless of all evidence to the contrary. He genuinely believes he’s a genius, an intimidating presence, a great deal maker, a popular person with the general public, that he won all 3 elections, and even that he’s seen as a sex symbol. He does not live in objective reality in regards to his own attributes, or much else for that matter. It’s all delusion. And that’s before the dementia started setting in.

    AOC should be forced to take the Cognitive Test that I just completed at Walter Reed Medical Center, as part of my Physical,” continued the commander-in-chief. “As the Doctor in charge said, ‘President Trump ACED it,’ meaning, I got every answer right. Instead of her constant complaining, Alexandria should go back home to Queens

      As someone who works in psychiatry and frequently administers cognitive tests, his comments are hilarious.

      The hardest question on the ACE-III is getting someone to remember a name and address for about 15-20 minutes whilst you get them to do the other tasks - mostly repeating sentences after you, naming objects, following simple two-step commands and other things which anyone without dementia should be able to do just fine.

      “Aceing” the test is just doing things that pretty much anyone without cognitive impairment should already be able to do.

        My favourite part was when he was bragging about remembering ‘person, man, woman, camera, tv’ when those would absolutely not have been the words in the test. The word list will always be unrelated things (like daisy, piano, horse, book, etc), since related words would defeat the purpose.

        He was obviously just naming things in his field of vision at the time. It’s such a weird thing to repeatedly boast and lie about.

            Nah, he’s just a liar. He said that at a press conference where literally everything in his view was either a person, man, woman, camera, or tv (well, plus the podium, but that’s a big boy word).

    How many times has he “completely lost it” recently? He’s always been insane. Insanely stupid in fact. Nothing new here.

    Yet, when we read the headlines, every few days or weeks, he “completely loses it”.

    If he were throwing grass in the air, eat dirt, or speak in tongues, maybe it would be worth the completely lost it title. Otherwise, it gets old after a few times.

      That really irks me is we basically have two styles of headlines right now.

      The newer sites like Rawstory, Mediaite, New Republic, Daily Beast, and Meidas Touch all use this bullshit style of headline writing.

      Meanwhile the traditional media sane washes the man and is equally disconnected from reality, but in the other direction.

      UTIs (urinary tract infections) really fuck with people experiencing dementia. Sometimes the way a person acts under a UTI is the first sign of such cognitive decline. They’ll be fine one day, but when infection sets in it’s like they become another person.

      However, that’s for people who ordinarily have self-control. For Trump, it’s anyone’s guess.
