OK. Push up contest? Cage match? 100m sprint? Contest to see who can go the longest without shitting themselves?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I'd pay money to watch a Trump v Obama basketball game
Trump could hold him off with that absolute dump truck of an ass.
That should really be censored
My bad, I can now see how posting a pic of a blonde with an ass that just won't quit could be problematic.
Look.. you might’ve made me laugh pretty hard just now, but you didn’t have to post this. You woke up and chose violence.
How old is this picture though? I doubt he could even still do this much.
Tennis is more activity than I would have thought him capable of.
Ah, yes, the famous Trump comeback,
Every accusation a confession.
Every insult a projection.
Every win a rigged election.
"Well of course, that happens when you get re-elected to a 2nd term."
And more importantly, actually do the job instead of golfing.
Well, he did like to golf too, just not as much as Trump. Didn't Obama golf like every week during his presidency?
Depends what you mean by golf. Finding a morning to play 2 holes a short helicopter hop away is playing golf. But it's not fly to Mar A Lago and ignore all responsibility level of playing golf.
He played like 350 rounds of golf during his presidency. That seems fine to me, but it seems weird to try to minimize that fact. He would regularly fly and play at resorts in Florida, Martha's Vineyard, and around DC. I Googled it, it was pretty well covered.
If that seems problematic to you, think about this: Trump (among many others) loudly criticized Obama for how much golf he played, but then when Trump took office, he proceeded to play twice as much golf.
If you think that's crazy, Woodrow Wilson played twice as much as Trump!! Even during WWI!
It's a sport where you can walk, talk, and do a sport. Decent way to get very moderate exercise while also doing work. I can see why it's popular. My guess is most presidents (except Trump) who golf do so to get outside for a bit in a secluded area while working given the job is nonstop.
I've heard it's also fairly easy to do security for.
Let's contextualize though. He played twice the amount of golf, in half the time.
No, he played twice the amount compared to Obama over four years. You're weirdly attached to interpreting this golf thing.
I'm weirdly attached to fighting stupid conservative propaganda. Let's put it a third way. Trump golfed about every 3.4 days, while Obama golfed about every 8.8 days.
👍
But Woodrow Wilson kind of sucked.
Yeah I heard he was like a 24 handicap lol
if theres one thing the orange turd is a pro at, its proooojection
Genuinely forgot Obama was in his 60's, fuck I'd be glad to be that fit in my 40's.
That's a good point. I've decided I'm not going to vote for Obama.
This from the guy who cancelled due to exhaustion recently?
Didn't he pull out of a number of friendly interviews and events recently? The spoilt orange turd, not the energetic eloquent capable one.
No, he was exhausted and looked old 8 years ago. He looks so much younger now
Pot, black, says Kettle, silver, is 'black'.
The irony of Trump doing this.
Must be a nice view from that glass house of his.
The original title is much better.
