Some time ago I posted a video of some Democrat dinosaur who was clearly too old to do her job. I don’t think the Democrats liked that very much.

Today, I post one of a Republican dinosaur:

Let us stipulate that no liberal has ever commented that Biden is too old.
So, we are looking at the same condition of this old guy, and Dianne Feinstein, and others.
Thing is, for libs here to stay in line with their mob, they cannot be honest about this old republican, without having to say Biden has the same problem. They cannot admit that he needs to be kicked out, because Biden has same problem.
This is clear lib dishonesty on the Forum. Entertainment is the ONLY reason to do the Forum. It is not a true Forum.... sad.

biden is too old

i hate that the democrats are ignoring/sabotaging Mariane Williamson. I hate that Sanders thinks the best way to avoid a trump presidency is to support Biden straight from a primary just because he thinks he has sway over the biden administration to get progressive agenda in (to be fair, he does, somewhat).

I would love to see Cornel West run as a Democrat and have debates with Marianne Williamson and Biden and whoever else would want to run . Have a primary, decide who the country wants to run against whatever degenerate piece of trash human the republicans vomit forward and then fall behind whoever the democrat primary candidate is.

The democrats are running the decrepit senile goof that is Biden and it's all you ghouls fault. If they weren't sure the country will run to vote for anyone but a republican because you pieces of excrement are downright insane maybe they would try harder.

Right now, a Trump presidency (or a deSantis, or a vivek) is a real danger to american democracy and anything else is preferable.

So the senile old fart will lose his train of thought sometime on TV. Trump does that anyway just because he is an imbecile. At least he won't pardon crimnals or sign national abortion laws or pack the courts with corrupt and criminal judges.

So fuk you all for giving us Biden. Fuk you all for giving us Trump as a boogieman the democrats will use to prop up useless candidates for all eternity.

(you can always cut the question mark and all that follows)

In fact the question is why can't old and very old people just call it a day. There is a reason why people go into retirement.
A measure that candidates my not be over the maximum retirment age for offiails would be fine for me. (Also in Germany of course)

I don't think that's his motivation. I think it has more to do with the fact that he has seen first hand (against Clinton) what happens to voter moral when their candidate loses.

There were scores of "Bernie Bros" who threatened to vote for Trump if Sanders didn't win. Subsequently there was an very low voter turnout, especially from Dems, which helped Trump win.

Fast forward, many Dems are disappointed with Biden and don't want him to run again. A primary could exacerbate those feelings if their choice doesn't win. Given Trump was a mere 45,000 votes from victory, I think Sanders wants to prevent what happened with him in 2016.

That said: I agree. I hate that Dems are pushing for the safer option for victory rather than a better candidate. This won't end; no matter who wins, it will be the same in 2028 and so on. It's for this exact reason we ended up with a Biden presidency rather than a Sanders one.

Trump could be too old for sure, de Santis is about right. Ramaswamy is childlike, a lot to pick from. And who cares what age Chris Crème is.
