Trump is definitely losing his ability to manage his lies/grifts. Biden is losing his syntactic abilities. Both options aren't good, but one is waaay more damaging to the American way.
Biden isn't losing his syntactic abilities, he's a man with a stutter and a history of verbal gaffes, who has lived a long time and met a lot of people, and was interviewed during a time of extreme stress (right at the start of the Israel/Palestine conflict), after having likely gotten minimal sleep for days.
I hate that this narrative of "he's too old" is making the rounds again, when if you had a camera following you around 24 hours a day, it would almost certainly capture you saying something stupid all the time.
Watch footage of his recent speeches without cherry-picking the ones with gaffes. He's been perfectly fine and eloquent most of the time.
They're both too old. I understand why Biden is running, DNC shit the bed and didn't offer any viable alternatives. I wish we would see a shift across the entire political spectrum to younger representatives.
Ageism baby. We should judge our candidates on their own merits
It's not ageism to say that young people need their fair representation in politics. The median age of America is about 40. The median age of Congress is about 60. There is a very real concern that our leaders may not truly grasp or fully understand the issues of the younger generation.
Not to mention the risk of death and health related issues is convergent with age. It can't be avoided, no matter how much people want to pretend it shouldn't be considered. 70+ is pushing it, 80+ is well beyond average male life expectancy. To hide behind "that's ageism" when anyone brings it up as valid concerns is to ignore the facts.
Yes, but telling older Americans they simply can’t be politically involved anymore isnt the play. Younger Americans certainly need greater representation, but that doesn’t mean denying representation from older ones. Less for sure, but not none
They can be involved. No one is taking their rights to vote away. You can't run for president until 35. You can't be a congressman until 25. No one says it denies younger folks their representation. Let older folks vote for who best represents their ideology and values, but it's time for upper limits for very obvious reasons.
Ok, their merits are both have been mistaking people for others from their past. They're too fucking old and its affecting their mental acuity. That's the merits.
So why did Biden refuse to debate his primary challengers? Or you know, make way for someone who's not clearly senile.
Did you forget that Trump refused to do the same thing?
