I definitely think there is a case of Goose/Gander here. If Biden was too old, and got run out of office by opportunistic media jerks happy to harp on his age day after day, attacking things he’s done his entire adult life as if it shows he’s one foot in the grave, then by god, the Media should jump all over Trump for the same problems. This is our way of saying “Hey, if Biden was too old at 81, then so is Trump at 78, especially with 59 year old Harris in the mix. Where are you, Media?”
Tbf everyone was calling biden too old as well. You know trump is just three years younger then joe?
The fascists are pikachu facing that people are fine voting for another democratic candidate after one day because they cant fathom losing their strong man candidate. In their world Dems losing Biden = loss of voters because if Trump somehow stopped running literally no one would turn out for the GOP ticket. Lesson is: one party is based on a vague platform, the other is based on a lunatic personality cult.
Well I was calling Trump too old and Biden too old to be running for eight years now but that’s not the point is it?
Doesn’t matter if he’s too damn old when economic anxiety runs rampant in the American voting public.
Age was only part of it, the biggest part was that Biden was noticeably mentally degraded for years.
It wasn’t the age, it was the cognitive decline. The sort of cognitive decline that makes it difficult for a person to form coherent sentences, and absorb new information, answer questions instead of falling back to talking points. It wasn’t that he had been getting worse for years, it’s that it’s this bad now, imagine what it will be like in 4.5 years.
Conservative Americans deserve a better candidate than Trump.
