I’ve had similar experiences with Fox News. All I can say is that their boomer (age cohort or mindset) audience may get these terms more readily than others. For one article I think the headline had something like “100 grand” instead of “$100,000”
Bed-wetting is pretty much only used for the dems.
I never heard "losing to the couch". It might be the phrasing of a particular aide who was anonymous but wanted people "in the know" to know they said it.
"bet wetting" is when he pisses on a mattress for fun. not even while asleep or anything, he just does it because he wants to and nobody will stop the president
imagine signing up for special forces thinking you'll be a "high speed operator" or whatever but your job ends up being bringing out a shop vac at high speed to clean up after joe
Do you have any idea how hard it is to clean old man piss out of a couch cushion? They have White House interns working around the clock to get the smell out each day before Joe's naps at 10, 1 and 3. He is extremely sleepy and his bladder retention has seen better days.
I like to imagine that the couch is just a really nice, comfy couch and the dem establishment is so unpopular that they're considering going for "comfy couch" as Biden's running mate in order to try and boost his poll numbers.
