President Biden turned 80 on Sunday. That’s the oldest any president has ever been. Reuters ran a story noting that a lot of Americans don’t think this is such a good thing, especially not as they look forward to 2024. "Some Americans have concerns about the advanced age of the two most likely 2024 candidates.
While 71% of Democrats think Biden is “mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges,” 46% say he may not be up to the challenge of running in 2024, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll taken Nov. 8 and 9. About a quarter of Republicans, 26%, think Trump may not be up to 2024

Remember the old adage that the only way to take the reins of power away from a Communist is to pry it from their cold, dead fingers? Same applies to the mediocrities in the American political class today.

He wasn’t up to the challenge of running in 2020. Thus the basement campaign.

It's not so much about being 80, it's about being senile. Many octogenarians are sharp. Biden was stupid BEFORE his decline.

Age my foot. My dad will be 98 in January and is more coherent than Zhoa. We just got back from a visit in PA and he got to see our son and great-grandkids.

FTA: “Some Americans have concerns about the advanced age of the two most likely 2024 candidates.”
Biden has completed his usefulness for “them”. His age is being used to paint a still vital and energetic 76 year old Trump as too old to run for office.
“71% of Democrats think Biden is “mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges,” 46% say he may not be up to the challenge of running in 2024”.
This from the same people who loudly proclaimed a purported lack of mental capability & cognitive capacity of PDJT 6 years ago. They always tell you what they fear most - it isn’t the lack of Trump’s capabilities that troubles them.

Biden was always stupid, but apparently pretty smart when compared to a Delaware voter.

Age is not a determinant of mental acuity, as #7 says. My step-grandfather (1899-1999), who got within five months of being a century old, never lost any of his mental sharpness with ago, and even worked as an insurance adjustor until age 96, finally retiring because he could not see well enough to drive safely to work anymore. He took himself off the road. But he kept reading and interacting with us all the way to the end. Age gets us all, one way or another, but not all suffer mental decline.
In Biden's case, I'm tempted to call it "mental pause." He's paused all right. Even decades ago, pre-dementia, Biden was never going to be confused with anyone worthy of respect, displaying the dullest mental sword in the Senate. Today he doesn't know where he is or what day it is. He's completely controlled by others because he's so obviously not mentally together. What's happened to him would be a tragedy if he were a noble person; he's anything but noble. He's a cipher. Instead, this whole pantomime is just a cruel farce being played out in front of us. BTW, the 71% of 'Rats who think he's sharp aren't stupid; they're liars.

This has nothing to do with age per se. Democrats view themselves as pure and perfect with no flaws.
They are smart, accomplished and open to anything they deem and I mean open to ANYTHING!! even perversion. They have no faults and resent being called out on anything normal, well as we see normal.
They are sad and really insecure. Hubris is what fuels them. Unfortunately, we have to share this planet with them. We have flaws too, but, manage to be responsible and live a good life. It must suck to be miserable all the time.

Susan Rice and her minders will keep vegetable on his feet until he finally drops. Meanwhile, all she has to do is take her orders from Obie, Klaus, and Xi.

What’s the difference? As the entire world, except a for the huge Democrat population of moron voters in the USA, know that Biden Is nothing more than a figurehead for the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats who with his declining cognitive abilities to keep from being completely lost, must always follow orders given to him by the covert White House leftist Democrat politburo, with only acceptable partisan Democrat information then put out to the nation by the dominant liberal media that is in effect, except for the French lady, the main propaganda arm for the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats.

American voters have elected dead people to office before. Maybe they'll reelect one in '24. Has Fetterman declared yet?

he can't leave, this is his only protection from criminal prosecution and imprisonment. not only is he the most inept person we have had in that office he is also the most criminally motivated who thinks that, as he did in his days in the senate, all he has to do is mention he is who he is and the prosecution ceases and that has been the case. he is baseless, immoral and unforgiving to anyone who happens to cross his path. he is genuinely not a nice person.

That is because Sniffy knows that the only thing keeping him out of jail is the power he wields as president.
Once he leaves office and is no longer useful to the Democrat Cosa Nostra, he is dead man walking.

It isn't his age, it is his dementia. The DNC knows it, and the liberal media certainly knows it.
