For all of y'all anxiety-pilled people: this is great news. Biden was stuck in negative momentum because his health issues had been exposed and were not going to stop resulting in terrible headlines, which is a problem whoever comes next is not going to have, unless the delegates are somehow stupid enough to pull another dinosaur from below the rug.
More interestingly: now that Biden has pulled out because he's patently too old, as it was a concern for plenty of voters, this is a golden opportunity to put the focus on the other candidate whose age is a somewhat less obvious but still noticeable issue.
If 34 felonies, rape, insurrection, etc. Didn't sway people Im not sure age is the thing that'll turn them around.
Yeah, but just think of all the clips we can show of Faux News talking heads saying someone in their 80s is too old for President, and do the ol' switcharoo
It isn't going to sway the MAGAs, but it could be effective on independents and maybe even some of the people that voted for Nikki Haley in the GOP primaries.
There was a poll that said most people wanted someone other than Biden running. That was the headline, but in the same poll most people also said they didn't want Trump running either. Well the Democrats did what people wanted... will the GOP do the same? Of course they won't.
This flips the script in ways we haven't even thought of yet.
Yup. It had nothing to do with his age.
Exactly! We now have a much younger, well-spoken, and intelligent candidate who can square off against someone who probably can't remember the last time they wiped their own ass. Let's go, Kamala!
I still I still believe that Biden is more cogent than Trump any dementia patient can rant about nonsense for 2 hours. It takes more brainpower when you can't just rattle off whatever lies popped into your head 5 mid sentence.
