Biden, 80, once attacked 63-year-old rival for being too old

President Biden once hammered an opponent for being too old for office — even though he was almost 20 years younger than the oldest-ever commander-in-chief is now.

Biden, running to stay president despite being 80, was a 29-year-old local Delaware councilman in 1972 when he ran the cruel — and ultimately successful — campaign for Senate.

Biden repeatedly bashed incumbent Republican Sen. Cale Boggs for being too old at a mere 63 — which is 23 years younger than Biden will be at the end of a second term as president if he wins reelection.

His campaign approach was described at the time as bashing Boggs for being “Dear old dad.”

Biden even bragged to local Democrats at the time that his rival, who scuppered retirement plans to run for reelection, had warmly told him how important it was “for youth to be involved in politics.”

Fortunately he no longer has any recollection of doing that and feels no hypocrisy

Well, it’s very easy to be 80 and run for president, when you don’t actually have to do anything. Somebody else is calling the shots and making all the decisions, and you don’t even have to campaign to ‘win’.

80 is the new 50, where the 50 year olds are the ones running the campaigns and the presidency.

Even Soros uses the 50 year olds to do his bidding, and Soros and Biden are just the figureheads, with the socialists running everything for them.

Words Biden says are only noise. They are meaningless. He has lied his whole life.

What a whack job


The problem for us is that it is likely that the majority of voters are completely unaware of FJB’s daily screw ups. I see clips of them every day, but they are never shown or pointed out on MSM. Even when they make the news, Afghanistan and now Sudan, they are things that just happened, not a result of his (or his handlers’) incompetence or worse yet a desire to trash this nation.

Biden falls up and down the stairs of AF1 several times. We see it and laugh. The majority of the nation does not. Trump has help navigating down a slippery ramp and it’s time to invoke the 25th Amendment.

The nation is being overrun by illegal aliens and we are told that there is no problem and if there is, it is because Congress won’t pass laws to make the illegals legal.

It is all maddening and the idea that we might well face six more years of this is very depressing.
