The bothsiderist media didn’t even bothsides things when both candidates were older. Now that only the Republican one is older, I have zero expectation of them asking why donnie is so old.
How old is he?
Did you even read the title? Jesus. He is 539.
Did he just age a year in 2 minutes?
First post didn’t appear for me and I couldn’t find it in post history so I posted again but forgot the number. Thanks for keeping me honest, m8.
The majority of people who objected to Biden were Democrats that wanted a better candidate because we were afraid that Biden would lose to Trump. The majority of Republicans can’t conceive of a universe where Trump ever loses an election so there hasn’t been an equivalently loud push on the GOP side.
Also, while I’d personally rather Trump be off the ballot entirely a fair chunk of democratic voters seem to think we’re better off with Trump on the GOP ballot than someone who is younger and may be better able to seem less openly deplorable. I disagree with that notion and also think Trump should step down because any chance that he wins the election is too high of a chance.
Basically, this article is drawing an equivalence between two very different situations.
Nothing is disqualifying for a Republican candidate for president.
Except maybe, I dunno, having a plan for healthcare or housing affordability or something.
Because they operate in bad faith and cannot be trusted.
For clarity, are you suggesting that everyone who had qualms with Biden’s age was operating in bad faith?
Everyone who had qualms about Biden’s age and yet not trump’s is operating in bad faith.
As far as I can tell, outside opinion columnists this position is entirely hypothetical.
That’s because the ones acting in bad faith got exactly what they wanted, and are on on to a new project. They aren’t going to keep asking for Biden to step aside when he already has.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don’t really care if they got what they wanted when the result is that way more voters are way more hyped about voting against Trump. The people who were convinced Biden was destined to be re-elected if he went up against Trump again were delusional and putting way more people at risk by demanding everyone shut up, fall in line, and be grateful they were giving us a not-Trump to vote for.
They were as braindead as Biden. They didn’t want to think.
The same ones who prevented Trump from winning were operating in bad faith? Seriously… it was the Democrats complaining saying he should step down. Why on earth would Democrats want Republicans to pick a new candidate now? Do you thinking helping Republicans somehow helps your side?
Are people really just now realizing he’s barely coherent? That’s why he got so much coverage 9 years ago in the first place. It’s been the #1 joke every fucking day for night show hosts since he rolled down that escalator to say Mexicans are rapists.
No, just liberals. It’s literally just a sports game to them. This is one of their funniest sneers because it’s so obvious why leftists don’t give a shit about Trump.
The reason, for the liberals reading, is because Donald Trump is not the DNC candidate for President of the United States of America.
Crazy, I know.
There is a very distinct double standard when it comes to the candidates and what the media and citizens focus on. Kamala has to be flawless and Trump gets a “Trump will be Trump” attitude.
No this is Republicans demanding something they never actually wanted and Democrats actually doing the right thing for once. Trump misses Biden so much already. Even if Trump is too old I’d rather Republicans think he isn’t than to try to convince them to change him out for a better candidate.
They’re still here, talking about how Harris hasn’t solved the Israel situation yet, despite having been President of the Earth for 20 years now.
Omg Democrats are complaining about their own candidates position? We must worship her as she can only do good and never do anything wrong.
He’s still ten times more coherent than Biden was when publications like USA Today were defending him.
The hell he is. He hasn’t been coherent in years. He just says his insane shit with confidence
Why get so offended? Just because he rambles like someone with ADHD doesn’t mean that Biden didn’t sound like someone with Alzheimer’s. People will think ADHD people are better off cognitively than those with Alzheimer’s.
Trump shouldn’t be up there. I got no issue saying that and it isn’t ageist. I’m not going to also memory hole all the people that blindly defended Biden when you could see with your own eye’s his decline. GOP people never cared from the start it was just a talking point for them.
