It’s really hard to say it’s not a big deal when Biden does it, because when trump does it Biden gives him shit about it.
A gaffe is just slipping on words once but still knowing what you meant. If you look at Biden full quote, he made multiple mistakes and was just rambling.
They’re both old and get confused which is 100% normal for their ages…
It’s just illustrative of why people of that age shouldn’t be in important and powerful positions in our government
Seems like that could be abused. Some 80+ year olds are in much better shape than some 60+ year olds. Besides, the voters put them there, we’re all to blame.
They aren’t getting the votes to be viable in the general election, but there are primary candidates from both parties. I would love to see a ranked choice voting system or something that would promote a wider field.
Sotomeyer is a type 1 diabetic, and is literally at the life expectancy for a woman with type 1 diabetes…
People make the argument that she “has the best healthcare” but one of the most important things with that is managing stress, and she’s repeatedly making public statements about how stressful it is .
She’s 100% going to die in office before she resigns, she learned absolutely nothing from RBG.
We need to stop ignoring that chronological age is a real thing, and has real effects on a person’s ability.
But since everyone in our top positions are so old they’re personally losing their mental abilities, they’ll never admit it.
And the boomers that are “next” sure as shit aren’t going to make better decisions, and we can’t afford to wait another 30 years for them to die off.
Trump was described by one of his college professors as the dumbest student to ever walk through that class.
His “business empire” has been a long string of outright stupid decisions. If he wasn’t born rich, he’d be that one guy constantly losing his life savings on get rich quick schemes.
As it is, Trump actually lost a lot of money trying to get rich(er) quickly.
Also, saying that Trump talks like an imbecile on purpose is like saying he shits his pants on purpose.
If he could string a coherent sentence together, he would. If only to stop people from making fun of his stupidity.
It’s not deliberate. His decline just started before he ran for president.
There are videos of him giving interviews in the 90s. He was still himself, but he had no trouble keeping track of what he was talking about and getting through several sentences on a single topic. Seen side by side the difference is quite stark.
If this is this a gaffe, what is it when Trump strings together his incoherent, incomplete, and nonsensical ramblings?

Maybe people above retirement age should not be allowed to be in positions of power in general?

Did you have any other choices?
We are having presidential elections here in Finland right now. We had 9 candidates for the first round from 9 different political parties to choose from.
They aren’t getting the votes to be viable in the general election, but there are primary candidates from both parties. I would love to see a ranked choice voting system or something that would promote a wider field.

Yeah, the US needs to get its act together and stop electing people so close to the life expectancy.
Is this because the founding fathers wore those white wigs or something? Lol
SC justices too.

We need to fix shit now

Trump talked like that since the first time he ran for president in 2000, in his case it’s deliberate.
But is it really?

That professor seemingly still passed him, which says something about that professor’s standards.
