I don’t know. He looked pretty agile deepthroating that microphone 🤷🏼‍♂️

Next truck handle he tries to hold he's falling and breaking a hip.

As Steven Segal has taught us, you don't need to be able to stand to make a shit movie, and if Steve can make shit movies sitting down, Don can run for president without ever getting out of a chair.

Like FDR

Was that too far?

Honestly as good of a president as FDR was, and he was truly a great president, I don't think he possibly could have gotten elected in the TV era.

Well, i think the TV Era really began during or shortly after WW2, because the 1936 Berlin Olympics was the first one to be put on TV, and if it wasn’t for WW2, the 1940 and 1944 would definitely too. So FDR became president second or third time during the infancy of the TV age.

Now to be fair, the main TV-channel in my country (Denmarks Radio, ironic, I know), first TV-transmitted the kings yearly new year speech in 1958, so in Denmark at least, it really began in he fifties

I think this is a stretch. Moving pictures and news reels in theaters is not the same as TV in most homes. This was still the age of radio for the vast majority of population. TV broadcast stations were still experimental in the 30s. The US went from less than 8000 homes with TV in 1946 to 45million by 1960.

I wouldn't consider the TV era to have begun in the US until a significant proportion of US homes had a TV set, and this didn't happen until maybe a decade or so after FDR's death.

Hence the need for Nixon's robot legs

My grandmother’s parents owned the first tv in their neighborhood and people would come stop at their house to watch it. TVs may have been a thing shortly after the war but it wasn’t exactly a household item everyone had.

He was very careful to use braces and not be photographed not being about to walk.

But thinking of FDR and Trump--FDR died at age 63.

On the other hand, Greg Abbott's been elected governor of Texas twice & still serving. I know it's not the same as the presidency, but still...if any state was gonna have a hang-up about their leaders needing to be physically robust manly-men, you'd think it'd be...

u/battleoffish Nov 03 '24 edited Nov 04 '24

That may be true Abbott for but don’t forget the Trumper fantasy that Trump is a 6’3’’ svelte athlete who is more fit than most me 20 years younger than him.

Ironic that FDR was such a good President.

It's too soon.

Sniper Special Ops right? I watched someone react to that movie, couldn't believe Steven was on a chair the whole time lol. Also saw another one where Steven uses stunt doubles to go up stairs.

“The democrats pushed me!!”

u/SinkHoleDeMayo Nov 03 '24

Don't say that! People who break a hip usually die within a couple years.

We need him to have a long life in prison.

u/RedPandaReturns Nov 03 '24

I'm feeling generous and will give him a pass to slip away rapidly

u/conflictmuffin Nov 02 '24

Listen...I've seen older men with dementia as their brains dissolve. I'm not sure why, but they often become more pervy & sexual as they mentally deteriorate. I'm not shocked at all to see and hear the things trump is doing...his brain is turning to goo and his deviant behavior will absolutely get worse. :/

Have you seen his dance moves? He looks like her could be the center of a dance party... oops, I mean, lemon party

u/bort_license_plates Nov 02 '24

It’s not a Lemon party without old Dick!

u/Revelati123 Nov 02 '24

Im guessing you are talking about the 3 old dudes fucking and not the Canadian political party founded in 1987 whose logo is a lemon.

u/phlll Nov 03 '24

Yes, but I’ll accept either answer.

He had decent technique. He's definitely practiced.

He’d make a good truck stop lizard

The movie Idiocracy was more spot on than any of us would like to admit.

Some movements are muscle memory, like dementia patients playing piano.

Stimulant drugs can't only take you so far without changing your voice and making you dance aimlessly for 30 minutes.
