He’s braver than me. I feel vulnerable atop a bike like that. I have yet to try a recumbent bike, but the thought of knees or exposed skin impacting hard surfaces keeps me off of anything up high. He’s looking good.

Feeling small
Dream of that guy
Having many a fall
You're welcome!

story about President Biden having to use a wheelchair or some such shit ? Apart from a bad debate performance and physical age related slowing down you can't say he didn't have a complete grasp of the information and experience needed to do the job. trump will never have the constitution or interest to do the job and by the way his debate performance was nothing but lies and rambling. I'm disgusted with the media in this country.

Willing to parrot and approve of the media’s complicity. The cantaloupe Caligula would not have won twice without the media sane washing his nonsense. We are not learning anything about the future of the Democratic Party by bashing Joe, we are just amplifying right wing garbage.

I fail to understand why anyone would come to this site and spend more time defending billion dollar media corporations and millionaire media figures than they do supporting democrats. It's not any of the people they're defending even know they exist or would care about them if they did.

While the burger eating monster is overseas giving away god knows what in order to line his own pockets. That man is stealing us blind monetarily and personal rights included. But hey….Joe’s shorts are too short and probably he can’t even ride a bike anymore when TSF could not ride a bike back when this photo was actually taken!!

And I agree that there are bigger fish to fry. That being said I’m not going to live in a state of delusion that nothing in the book or other reporting is true. That it’s all a lie. Unfortunately that is the norm here.

It’s not like it’s from 20 years ago. Why does this matter to so much? Why does someone saying something nice about President Biden offend you so much?

I misread the year. But it’s not like it’s 20 years old or 10 years old or 5 years old. It’s less than 2 years ago. Not a long period of time.
