Well, he is old. He moves like an old man.
But when he speaks he still makes a lot more sense than word-salad Trump.
And even if Biden were half-comatose come election time, I would still have to vote for him, because the alternative is so awful.
And if Biden is losing it during a second term he will still have a VASTLY better executive branch than Trump would have. Trump is going to wreak havoc on our democracy. No thanks.
I'll take old Joe.

Even if Biden expires come election time, I'd vote for him. Kamala has some issues (IMO), but she's still better than Trump. If she had to take the reins on day-one, that would be better than the alternative (i.e. Trump).
And there is precedent. People whom are dead have been elected (for lower offices, e.g. a state representative). In this case, we have a running mate able to take over.

LOL. You just *feel* the enthusiasm they have for Biden, can't you?
It oozes from every pore like a squeeze to that tube of Ben-Gay. Smells about like that, too.

Obama was the ONLY candidate I have ever been enthusiastic for. I liked a few others over the decades, but once I worked through all of his campaign proposals, I was on-board.
Every other election as been "meh" for me. Choose the least-worse candidate. This one is no different. Biden is easily the least-worse in every way.

I'm not going to lie (like so many on the right do reflexively) and say I'm enthusiastic about Biden. I like him. He's fine. I'd like to see someone younger for sure. But he's not terrible at all.
What I am enthusiastic about is keeping the criminal who sullied the White House and all of America out of office. That's what gets me going.
--Peter <== looking forward to the first post-baby boom President next time around. We boomers have taken a great opportunity to make a difference for good in the world and we've squandered it accumulating wealth for ourselves. It's past time to turn things over to the next generations. Hopefully we haven't screwed things up so badly that they can't fix it.

left wingers tend to lie to themselves before they lie to anyone else; it's a part of the reality that they have to craft emotionally for themselves.

The alternative is the smell of a Trump loaded diaper.
Any way you look at it, Biden is the better choice.

Dope1: left wingers tend to lie to themselves before they lie to anyone else; it's a part of the reality that they have to craft emotionally for themselves.
Hilarious.
Speaking about "lying to themselves," I'm old enough to remember when presidential candidate Hillary Clinton went to historically black churches and there were black people there... unlike the white faces brought into the Detroit church to cheer on Dementia Don.
Paid Trump campaign liar Kellyanne Conway said there were 8,000 in attendance (she purposely said "people," not "Black people") but photographs of the event clearly show between 100-200 mostly white folks in the "congregation".
Dementia Don told the folks there that he did more for Black people than any president since Abraham Lincoln, despite presidents Ulysses S. Grant securing creation of Department of Justice and empowering the attorney general to prosecute the Ku Klux Klan and racial violence; Harry Truman de-segregating the military via executive order; and LBJ, who signed into law the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
One could argue that president Obama should be included for his success in passing the Affordable Care Act, which is one of the greatest anti-poverty measures that this country has ever enacted.
As far as the low unemployment rate for Blacks during the early years of Dementia Don's presidency, president Biden brought those rates down even lower -- the record low for the Black or African American unemployment rate, 4.8%, was set under Biden in April 2023. That beat the Trump-era low that was a record at the time, 5.3% in August 2019 and September 2019 -- and they remain historically low. Besides, if you're going to credit Dementia Don for low Black unemployment in 2019, why should he avoid blame for the rise that followed?
Plus, after appearing at the Black church Dementia Don ran off to appear with supporters who unveiled a “White Boy Summer” flag at Charlie Kirk's Turning Point conference.
Talk about "lying to yourselves."

I have to agree, Biden does look old. Very old.
By contrast Trump looks stupid. Very stupid.
Given a choice, I’m going to go with old.
