MODERATORS
By November, Trump will have taken credit for every Biden accomplishment and millions of voters will believe it because they have the memories of goldfish.
That's what happens when you have two brain cells fighting for third place and get your information from fox "news".
Hey don't insult goldfish by comparing them to conservatives; goldfish actually have good memories
I knew that from reading it somewhere years ago. (Maybe a Straight Dope book?) But I couldn't think of a better metaphor people would understand.
May flies. Those fuckers only live 6 days, I cannot imagine that evolution would select for memory retention with that short of a life span.

What does that have to do with what I said?
What?
You're commenting under an article that says Trump is taking credit for it.
You made a comment saying trump was going to take credit for all of Biden's accomplishments...
And I showed you a link that says Trump did this first by executive order, Biden stopped it for years, and now people are bigving him credit for not obstructing it and saying it was his idea
How do you not understand how the headline, your comment, and that article aren't connected?
It's literally two steps of logic
See, the funny thing is that the article that OP posted that you clearly didn't read already brought that up and put it into context that you didn't.
If only you had read it.
So why did your comment imply trump lied?
Like, this is the one time he's actually telling the truth...
If you were here in good faith, you would have admitted you didn't read the original article that already mentioned your big gotcha.
So....
No explanation at all, and more accusations.
Great, have fun with that. It might be close enough to the line mods won't delete your comments. But I sure as shit don't want to read them anymore.
Enjoy the slow process of becoming exactly like a trump supporter. At least you got a headstart, like the first zombie in an apocalypse. You don't have to watch others turn, you're already there.
The explanation is in the article you refuse to read.
Who was it who recently criticized me about making accusations? Can anyone help me with that?
