They probably should or it's a free punch to the opposition. Like this country candidates appear to be focused upon being 'least worst' rather than offering anything positive. TBF the world is in a bit of a state so maybe positive change isn't on the table at present.

It’s irrelevant as the other candidate is a drug addled 77 year old. Those not being able to vote for Biden due to age are hardly going to pick the one 95% as old.

A sober, balanced look at effect of age on both Biden and Trump and whether or not they are fit for office. The piece starts with the viewpoints of various lay persons and continues with an interview of two mental health professionals. Skip to 3:56 for the mental health professionals interview if you don't care about the lay person perspective.

This thread, of late, has been taken over by numerous bullshit MAGA propaganda posts purporting that Biden is a doddering old fool, unfit to hold the Office of the President due to mental infirmity. The lack of balanced reporting on this topic by the press has been a disgrace. At least PBS has finally tackled the issue head on.

Should be irrelevant I agree, but surely both main party's have something better to offer?

Not now, no. It’s too late.

So it’s a choice between boring and stable or chaos and anger.

Still can’t believe nobody has bumped Trump off yet.

Problem is that probably 99% of all the nutters with guns are Trumpers.

Just need to tell them that Biden is dressing up as Trump these days then!

Fixed. Posts on X are referred to as "posts," not "tweets."

Anything Katyal has to say or post is worth listening to or reading.
