Democrat James Clyburn on Joe Biden’s Age: ‘It’s a Legitimate Concern’
Breitbart ^ | 05/08/2023 | Jacob Bliss

Posted on 05/08/2023 5:20:03 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Assistant House Democrat leader Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), who also serves as President Joe Biden’s 2024 reelection campaign co-chair, said the president’s age is a “legitimate concern.”

Clyburn reportedly speaks with the president regularly and has been credited for helping Biden win their party’s primary during the 2020 presidential election. His endorsement of Biden in the primary ultimately helped him over the finish line after suffering multiple early-state losses.

Given better avoid stairs - not because he’ll trip and fall but because one of the Democrats will throw him down.

Clyburn was king-maker in 2020. Biden said he’d appoint someone blackish as VP if Clyburn delivered SC. That was the deal, as I’ve read about it.

Remember, SC turned the whole primary around for Biden. Before SC he was trailing badly; afterwards, everyone threw their delegates to him.

All in the plan.

Somebody ask Soros and Obama the final day for Biden before he leaves to spend more time with his family after a lifetime of public service? Like the football and baseball managers given the bad news in the CEOs’ top floor glassed in office?

His age? How about his dementia and mental illness?

That’s the part I don’t get. The other candidates threw in their towels and got behind Biden _before_ Super Tuesday! Why before if you do it all. After, you know how much traction you have to get the position you want in the coming kleptocracy.

Clyburn himself is already 82 years old. Maybe he should jump ship with the Skipper.

Biden was born and grew up in a time before television existed.

Let that one sink in, for the younger folks who have never lived without an iphone version existing.

Anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear can see the Democrats are moving Biden out.

I ain’t holding my breath. Maybe Clyburn does, but Obama says, hey, I’m still in charge.

Come on people! Think this through. Biden suddenly can’t run for whatever reason. Don’t you think the democrats have a plan B already worked out? They don’t want Kamala in the WH by accident. Hopefully Biden makes it to 2024. He then only has to replace Kamala with someone who won’t push the current VP’s button. Think Hillary/bigfoot Obama.

If he doesn’t make it to 2024 all bets are off.

Next question: Will Kamala make it to ‘24? Too much drama but the rats can handle it better than the GOP.

Uh-oh. When Biden loses Clyburn, there’s a problem.

When asked about his own age, 82, Clyburn had no comment. Not that any Reporter would actually ask the question as that would be racist.

“His age? How about his dementia and mental illness?”

Exactly right. It is not his age, it is his mental capacity. They want it to be an age thing so that they can use it against Trump.
