Isn’t this whataboutism 🤡

like

No. Whataboutism is changing the subject. This is a direct comparison. People saying Biden isn't fit to be President because of his gaffes are hypocritical if they then vote Trump.

It's literally the exact same topic about people currently in the exact same position that we're about to be asked to choose between

You’re trying to equate completely different phenomena. I’m an independent voter and I can SEE THE DIFFERENCE between a made-up word and mental decline.

Gaffes are when you get tongue-tied or say a different word than what you were thinking.

Ignorance is when you make up nonsense words.

Mental decline is when you consistently lose your train of thought AND can’t get through a five minute prepared speech even when reading notes for half the time.

Look at videos of Biden during his gaffe-filled VP years and look at videos of him now. These new things are NOT gaffes.

smart

It’s funny but we gotta cut both these guys some slack. Getting tongue is normal.

I thought this thread had taken a really disturbing direction...

For anyone who receives a quarterly bonus or raise in some form, does your employer start to schedule you for less hours when your raise kicks in, or pull you from a future schedule entirely once you receive a bonus; only to put you back on once the hours you would have worked and earned the amount given are passed? Ie; a part time employee getting $200.00 in a quarterly bonus and then not being scheduled a whole week during a bi-weekly pay period where they would have earned more on the clock…?
