Biden 2024
Maher, a previous defender of Biden’s when critics have attacked him over his age, argued while “judging by age is wrong” since people age differently, he stressed it’s a “case by case basis” and cited Biden’s recent botching of LL Cool J’s name as proof that it’s “time to go.”
“Say what you want about Trump, but he remembers Kanye’s name,” Maher quipped. “At some point, perception becomes reality. What matters is voters think Biden’s too old. What matters is he’s gonna lose to Trump, who is almost the same age but his age just doesn’t read like Biden’s. Maybe it’s because Trump is insane. Maybe it’s because he’s always a ball of white-hot anger, but for whatever reason, he looks robust. And Joe looks like his own skeletal remains.”
Maher kind of gets it now. He’s the MOT who’s figured out where the train is heading but hasn’t figured out yet how to get off.
