As a politician is it a good thing to tell people you have brain worms?

This guy just pulled a Jimmy Carter

His brain wasn't nutritious enough to sustain a worm.

That is one hell of a title.

This is the best we can put forward as a nation, a narcissist with dementia, a normal old guy with dementia, and a guy who refused to have his brain tumor investigated and opted to believe the one guy that said it could be a dead brain worm. Also probably with dementia. We're fucking doomed. I'm still voting for normal guy with dementia, but... Doomed.

Not an American myself but I remember in like 2016 people were saying you can't have Bernie because he's too old.

And now I'm like wtf they totally could have had Bernie.

I mean look at the candidates now. Out of the potential old men leaders Sanders is the only one I would trust behind the wheel of a car.

The anti-vax politician who admitted to having less than a complete brain?

[–] TheDeepState 1 points 9 months ago

Maybe a close 3rd.

It does explain so many things.

When you don't have enough brain to sustain a parasite.

So when they take out the worm, will it be a better presidential choice?

It is dead, so Congress will not change. The big question is who his VP is.
