Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

Get fucking Harriet Jones’d lol
Politics is so basic
- Polling shows electorate are concerned about age of candidates
- ditch aged candidate
- attack opponents aged candidate
- Parties attack either other for having aged candidates.
- Party ditches aged candidate, since electorate doesn't want aged candidate--other party doubles down on old/mentally declining candidate and refuses to reconsider
- Party attacks aged candidate
- Omg who could have seen that coming
Like I said, basic.
Yup. One side proved they were actually concerned about the age of the candidates and did something about it while the other digs their heads in the sand and ignores reality.
Sure seems to be a super common theme these days...
So when did this “actual concern” begin ?
It was never mentioned until the Hur report raised doubts. Then Biden received fulsome support from the party.
Wtf planet are you on dude?
Say the name of the Democratic presidential nominee:
The Hur report alleviated doubts. What the fuck are you talking about
Why so aggressive?
Hur said of Biden “he’s and elderly man with a poor memory”
Following that, he was roundly supported by the party.
Did you ignore the congressional hearing where it was demonstrated that Hur lied and omitted facts to spin that narrative?
You just said he alleviated doubts …..but now you say he was found to be lying ?
What are you trying to say ?
Look, a few weeks ago, the democrats went out of their way to defend a doddery old man and told you everything was fine. Then when polling data changed, They kicked him out him, and started using age and infirmity as an attack line.
If you don’t see hypocrisy in that, and you don’t see the lack of integrity in that, and the general cheap shittery in that, then you are part of the great unthinking electorate .
Yeah, its bizarre. Its almost as if the sections of electorate that complained about age never really cared about i the first place.
They'd vote for a mummified dementia donnie if they could.
He's as old and decrepit as he made Biden out to be.
Of course they're desperate to hide it.
Every accusation is a confession, as per standard procedure.
Of course it is. He bragged that he struggled at the dementia test only for the last few questions, half a decade ago.
The difference is that with Biden, it was something new and recent. Trump's been like that for decades at least. It's hard to say that it's because of his age, but that doesn't change the end result.

Democrats don’t want voter ID. You know why? Because they wanna cheat. They don’t wanna — I say, ‘Ohhh, they don’t wanna.’ When I first — I thought I was seeing things, I thought I was ... like, I didn’t hear that when I first start this who — they’d say, ‘The Democrats will not approve voter ID.’
— A stable genius
Got the whole team in tonight. seppos on high alert it seems
So is most of the "liberal media", too, apparently. For a while there, nearly all I heard about was age. Then, suddenly, during the summer, that ceased.
Weird. I wonder what happened? Meanwhile, dementia donnie seems to be losing it more and more by the day.
They get paid more this way. That’s the real truth.
