Last I checked, Biden still had a heartbeat.
 
For the American citizens here, who plan to vote, are you planning to vote on Election Day, Early Voting or Mail-in?

Just looked up early voting here in Florida, it starts about 2 weeks before. This is what I have done in the past and plan to do again.

I don’t think we have a non-functioning president. But, when I hear Trump say the people in the Harris airport photo actually “do not exist”, I can’t help but wonder about the MAGA Party candidate, and his cognitive health. Seems like he may not be “well”, however one defines “well” where Trump is concerned. Would hate to see someone this far removed from reality, a fact Trump seems to be bizarrely insistent we understand, lol, in the Oval Office.

This president doesn’t seem divorced from reality. That’s important to some of us. We prefer presidents who are not insane….

No. The secretary of state and defense and others will be involved. This is not a monarchy just yet, so one guy being down doesn't take down the entire system, even the president.

I thought those are all fraudulent votes, or is that only in Georgia? jkjk


I am probably going to vote at a polling place. My wife likes to do that and I usually try to go with her.

If the president were a king then yes. If the president were someone who thinks he knows more about everything than anyone and doesn't listen to council from anyone else then yes.

But since our government is run by thousands of people and Biden has no problem listening to others (probably just let's others handle a lot of stuff) I'm not that concerned about our countries part in this.

Also, the US is part of this group of countries called NATO. Each of those countries should be involved in trying to de escalate things. This shouldn't be something left to Biden to fix even if he were in his 40's and at the peak of his mental health.

What is Australia doing to prevent the conflict from escalating?

ADF currently has 8 active deployments in the region, mostly in observation, peacekeeping, training and logistics. I don't think the government can politically commit to a war in the region or has any desire to join the broadening conflict. Nor do I think we will be asked to deploy forces to the region by the US.

So the last year or two is a good demo that who is President doesn’t particularly matter

So to my point by everyone’s admission there is not a functioning President atm Isn’t it at the least just embarrassing ??

Exactly. Of course it doesn't really matter. I am nearly 50 years old. Been through many presidents. Life has been relatively the same though all of them.
