"When I purposely interposed names, they said I didn't know Pelosi from Nikki," Trump said at a rally ... He said calling Obama the current president was sarcasm, not a gaffe. "I'm a great speaker," Trump said.

Did you even know Trump confused Biden and Obama?

I think most of us can acknowledge that this is Obama’s de facto third term in office.

Pretty funny that you got all aggro and doubled down on this and Biden said "Hold my Beer" then went up to the podium just now and said

"I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president if she's not qualified to be president"

And he didn't catch that gaffe

Trump is a great speaker. He said so.

Not even close. The  President caught his own gaffe and laughed it off.

Trump's gaffe was paired with a lie. He claimed evidence of Haley refusing the national guard was destroyed.

Pelosi is not Haley and had no authority to either accept or decline the NG. No evidence was destroyed and she did not apologize for it.

Trump neither caught nor acknowledged his mistake. He claimed he mixed them up on purpose.

Biden's minor gaffe got more media attention because the bar is so low for Trump.

Sure, Ray…

You seem to be confusing radical right wing propaganda sites with credible sources.

Did you even see the actual video, or do you just let others tell you what to think?

“Now, I want to hand it over the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination. Ladies and gentleman, President Putin,” Biden said. He’s going to beat President Putin. President Zelensky,” Biden said, quickly correcting himself. “I’m so focused on beating Putin, we’ve got to worry about it.”

Once again, with feeling. Your take doesn't matter. You're solidly going to vote for Biden. The voters whose decision on Nov 5 - Trump, Biden, RFK, abstain - those are the voters who matter, and they aren't going to do this analysis. They are going to see the short clip, and go "Facepalm". And the most susceptible are the soft Biden voters for whom the slightest inconvenience that day results in them not going to the polls.

I love Zelensky’s reaction when Brandon calls him Putin. Or is that fake radical right ring propaganda too?

My take may not matter, but that is not going to stop me from expressing it.

A late friend was warning me years ago about Paul Weyrich, Christian Identity, Dominionists, etc. 20 years ago. I called him a conspiracy theorist.

Maybe we should quit letting all those Papists across the border!?!?

If these " alleged Christians" followed the teachings of Frank, I'd have no problem.  Jesus wouldn't recognize these Philistines.

I have a sneaking suspicion they aren't White Christian Nationalists.
