    And FDR was in a wheelchair no less. Imagine the current rabid right’s reaction if a democrat president was in a wheelchair?

      Texas’s Governor Abbott is in a wheelchair, and I don’t see much criticism, but I also don’t know how many people know he is

        Abbot is a republican. If he were a democrat, the republicans would call him weak for being in a wheelchair

          100% - the former guy said on national television that he likes “soldiers that don’t get captured” and people still voted for him. The Rs would have no problem with “I like governors who can walk”.

              I can’t take credit for that one, it came straight from the mouth of Joey B. himself: https://12ft.io/https://edition.cnn.com/2021/02/19/opinions/the-former-guy-trump-biden-dantonio/index.html

                Can you take credit for “Joey B”? Because I like that one too

                  It’s not that original of an idea but sure. I’ve mostly been using it to troll my conservative family when pointing out things Biden is doing better than trump; e.g. “Joey B figured out how to do infrastructure week…”
