Sue, responses like this won’t cut it when the whirlwind takes effect. Bone up! On substance!

Won’t it be refreshing to write about, and deal with, only Trump in a month. I am asking ‘my side’ not to get braggadocio or rub noses in it, for fear y’all will go stark mad.
And I hope your side will limit Sonhouse to 2 paragraphs. Maybe SHouse could tell us what the first good thing trump does will be, when it happens. Some sort of news alert. Bringing Putin into common sense would be an example, though y’all are not fans of common sense.
You very rarely engage the topic at hand. Read the goddamn article, or just wallow in delusion and stupidity. Whatever you do, don't waste my time with your shopworn verbal diarrhea.

And this hard-on you have for Sonhouse is getting weird, old chum. Propose to him, or find another fish in the sea. Maybe a bottom-feeder.

Sorry, the absence of our president for 40% of his term…FORTY percent is so cut and dry criminal, that there is nothing else to say about it. So I took liberty of keeping everyone in the loop. It IS my thread after all. Funny you single out SHouse. Like all libs, you don’t come near sensing humor. SHouse and are friends (musical talents with strings)and he doesn’t mind me, I give him hell about his positions,
Hey , you don’t like MY positions, so why can I not like those of SHouse? Like, he is OK with boys competing against girls. I don’t like that position. Maybe you like that position, and that’s what makes the forum go round.
Geez, you are thin skinned. Take a breath.😮‍💨😮‍💨

Unlike you I shall stick to the issue: in my 1st link above it is made clear that Trump's "absences" are nearly on par with Biden's. In my 2nd link it's made clear that, to whatever extent Trump's "absences" were fewer, there is a qualitative difference in the nature of those absences. Arguably, you see, Trump spent a tremendous amount of his "time off" violating the Domestic Emoluments Clause of the Constitution.

BTW, there's little difference between what you fancy to be your "sense of humor" and just being a plain as​​shole.

Hahaha. Everyone look at this squirming. They will reach for ANYTHING to make a not-point. He admits Ttrump absences were fewer, let’s give him that. But beyond that, I guess he is qualified to dissect each hour?!?!?!?
And you even admit “arguably “. You silly goose, isn’t everything.???? Take my taxes paying off your college loan . Totally immoral, but..,,hey….arguable.

Classic stuff. Better than Sue’s racism poems.

Quite disagree. Cmon, you guys consider me an ahole when I say to not give $1 to pay off someone else’s loan. Very difficult for libs to digest.
I am mean, to wit, an a-hole. What?

You did not look at the links, then.

I'm not going to spoon feed you.

But never mind the number of days a president is off-duty. Break it down by the hour, just like you suggest.

Here's the first link again, published in July 2024:
https://rollcall.com/2024/07/12/trumps-presidential-office-hours-were-the-shortest-since-fdr-bidens-not-far-behind-him/

The salient part:
ANALYSIS — Former President Donald Trump’s working hours in the White House were the shortest for any president since Franklin D. Roosevelt. Trump averaged six hours and two minutes of work each day from his first appointment to his last while in office.

As for "arguably," you need to read through the 2nd link I gave up a ways.

Whatever. You would not think much of me if I sat down and absorbed your crutch-post. I lean more on human facts, not scribes in the WH.
How about out of Beden’s own mouth. “My day is from 10 until 3,,,,,,”,Trump is having lunch at 10, and sleeps 5 hours a night.
Enough already, geez.

It is not pganda to point out for instance that Biden told a group of governors that he needs a lot of sleep. That statement negates all of your weak posting. I don’t even have to whataboutisms.
Let our audience decide on the veracity of your amazing explanations of my comments.

Just this will do it: I sleep a lot, and AvJoe is correct that I did not meet with my cabinet, I went to the beach.

Give it up he is the greatest loser.
Do you remember maybe a year ago, one of you found some poll that said Biden ranked just a few rungs down from Lincoln?? You think I wont jump on THAT final judgement.!,?.??

I gave you a link to the hard facts, based on the record of official activities that all presidents have, and you come back with "Biden said something to someone somewhere -- QED."

This isn't the Fox News peanut gallery, where alternate realities are manufactured out of thin air based on a vote or knee-jerk partisan hackery. But no matter: you don't like the facts that negate the BS in the link in your OP, so now you say reality should be decided by "our audience." Okay. Have you noticed now many thumbs-down your OP has received?

You're just making a fool of yourself as usual.

Sad fact for you: getting less sleep does not correlate with increased productivity. In fact, research shows the opposite to be true.

https://www.sleepfoundation.org/sleep-hygiene/good-sleep-and-job-performance
Trying to work while sleep deprived can significantly impact job performance. Without enough sleep, processes throughout the body work suboptimally. Neurons in the brain become overworked, impairing thinking, slowing physical reactions, and leaving people feeling emotionally drained. These short-term side effects of sleep deprivation can wreak havoc on a day’s work. Chronic sleep deprivation can have even more drastic consequences, including an increased risk of obesity, heart disease, cognitive decline, and dementia.


@AverageJoe1
Don’t make fool of yourself and fail to acknowledge what I just said. You would be covered up with those scurrilous thumbs
