“We will institute the powerful death penalty for drug dealers, where each dealer is responsible for the death, during their lives, of 500 people or more,” he said.

"Mothers will never again be forced to watch their children overdosing in hosp … and we will never allow mothers to watch their child hopelessly dying in their arms screaming, ‘What can I do, what can I do? Help me God, what can I do?’ We are a nation whose once revered airports are a dirty, crowded mess,” Trump continued, pivoting suddenly.

“You sit and wait for hours and then are notified that the plane won’t leave, that they have no idea when they will. Where ticket prices have tripled. They don’t have the pilots to fly the planes, they don’t seek qualified air traffic controllers, and they just don’t know what the hell they are doing.”

“We will take over the horribly run capital of our nation in Washington, D.C., and clean it up, renovate it, and rebuild our capital city, so that it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime. But rather it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world,” Trump said.

“Right now, if you leave Florida, ‘Oh, let’s go, darling, let’s look at the Jefferson Memorial, let’s look at the Washington Monument, let’s go and look at some of the beautiful scenes,’ and you end up getting shot, mugged, raped,” he warned, promising that he’d run the city “tough and smart.”

you weren’t some low level receptionist/worker,

Nope, I was a teaching assistant. And it's silly (to put it mildly) that you dismiss the role of receptionists/office workers in an Disability Services office. Do you think they'd put just about anyone without being at least trained how to deal with students with disabilities entering the office?

You do not come across as being even slightly educated on this.

This is an absolutist statement. Did I say "who cares about the disabled lol" or something like that for you to say that I'm not even "slightly educated" on this? and Frankly, you attacking the person and not the argument is starting to get old. You remind me of that other poster that for him, it was his way or the highway, no middle-grounds.

And now I can see why you think the way you think. Given the conversation so far, it seems like for you Biden must either be "100% superman" or else he's useless. No middle ground. The funny thing is that I don't even like Biden!

Did you have a coworker or person who needed text to voice? If not, why advocate for that? You don’t need to accommodate a disability that none of your coworkers have lol. This is different than making public spaces accessible to the general public, eg wheelchair ramps and wheelchair accessible bathrooms.

I don't understand why you said this or how this is relevant to the conversation.

A'aight. Let's just leave it at we disagree and I don't like your way of arguing these matters. You can say I'm an ignorant fuck and feel good about yourself. Awesome! Alright. Have a nice day.

I used to be a receptionist at a medical office. That doesn't mean I understand how to practice medicine. That is specifically what I meant by that.

They hired you, and you are clearly ignorant. What did you teach as a TA? You're the one pulling an appeal to authority here, I'm questioning that completely because your argumentation is so bad. If you said you were a mechanic and told me to swap my engine oil with coolant, I'd be questioning you there too. You haven't been addressing the content of my argument, or perhaps you simply agree to disagree. I will give you a little grace in the sense that you probably were working with disabled students, which is more line working with disabled customers at a job. We are talking about disability and how it applies to workers, not customers/the public. This is likely where your gap in knowledge (and hubris) comes from, because employee rights are different than student rights.

You are openly advocating for a man with cognitive decline to be president as if it's nothing, and then you attempted to gaslight me by saying it's ableist to not let him run. Yeah, that's pretty bad, dude. It's akin to saying "who cares about the disabled," yeah, because it's clear you don't care about Biden's safety and wellbeing as a person. You just want to use his meatsuit regardless of his condition (until a doctor says something or he steps down, per you). That's why what you're claiming is so offensive to me. Any disabled abuse is offensive, and on top of that, he could kill us all or declare war etc. It's bad.

I will vote for Biden, you black-or-white strawmanner, and i never said I wouldn't. I just think it's morally WRONG to have him be president. I've clearly explained why. He doesn't have to be superman - JUST NOT IN COGNITIVE DECLINE. You see there's a huge range between the two right?

Did you have a coworker or person who needed text to voice?

Lol because you stated whenever there were images with text in them, you'd complain about the ADA violation in employee emails. Except it's not a violation if you do not have a coworker who needs different accomodation. You'd fully understand this if you understood reasonable accomdations, disability, and the workplace. If you didn't have staff who needed the text written elsewhere (which is used for text to voice, mainly for people who cannot see, sometimes for dyslexia), then you weren't enforcing ADA. And you were actually damaging it and abusing the law, even though you yourself aren't disabled. Cool, dog.

Lol!

the definition of ignorance is lacking knowledge. That's you as it related to disability in the workplace. What class did you TA for?
