      This is the dumbest comment I’ve ever seen. We couldn’t possibly be daft enough to elect someone that young! And a woman nonetheless!

          Absolutely and fully agreed. She’s a phenomenal person and one of the few figures I’m proud of as an American.

          That still doesn’t mean I’d consider her for president. The role, I’d say, asks for entirely different skill sets.

            Maybe, but based on the two options we’re going to have in 2024, I’d take Dolly over either of them.

              Over the last few decades i have noticed a 100% correlation between a person’s dislike of Dolly and them being a shithead.

              Anyone who doesn’t like her is simply wrong. That is not an opinion just a statement of fact IMO.

            Argh

            YouTuber Logan Paul announced that he plans to run for president in 11 years when he turns 35

            Can’t wait for the 2036 matchup of Mr Beast vs. Logan Paul!

                  Is there an ihadastroke community for lemmy?

                  I’m sorry but I can’t tell what you are trying to say.

                    Okay, let me diagram the sentence for you.

                    The

                    • literal no-brain (adjective)
                      – would (verb modifier)
                      — be (verb)
                      — JAKE PAUL (noun, subject)
                      then, as a run-on sentence, and exclamation

                    • Yeah (exclamation

                    • he (pronoun, subject)

                    • can (affirmative)

                    • punch (verb)

                    • people (noun)

                    Since you don’t seem to understand American English as commonly spoken, I’ll try to explain. If you’ve had a stroke recently, I understand.

                    “The literal no brain” means “the action that would be done by someone who has no brains”, as in, very unintelligent or not thinking.

                    “would be”

                    “JAKE PAUL YEAh” : to cheer for Jake Paul.

                    “he can punch people” : in context, someone with no brains would cheer for Jake Paul due to his physical fighting prowess.

                    Hope that helps.

            I also recently learned that Mr. Beast has shady connections that lead back to Russian oligarchs and South African real estate money from the apartheid days

        My children have a stack of free age-approptiate books, and I will whack you with them until you read more about the good that Dolly has done.

        Don’t worry, kids books are light.

        It’s unavoidable: politics is a popularity contest, and celebrities are popular…

        Also being an actor doesn’t automatically mean they’re not fit for the role, Zelenskyy, the president of Ukraine, was an actor.

          He was an actor with a degree in politics. It’s not like he didn’t at least have some knowledge of what was involved.
