I get it, Biden is old and that’s a problem, but why doesn’t anyone seem to have a problem with the fact that Trump is almost the same age, has 34 felonies, raped at least 2 women, went to Epstein’s Island 11 times, sexualized his own daughter, stole classified documents, aligned himself with Xi and Putin, and can’t remember common names?

Is all of that really better than being 2½ years older than he is right now?

    That “booming” economy is a straight line on any chart from 2010 to 2019. GDP, unemployment, debt, income, whatever you want to check. Funny you think democrats are why things tank. Do you associate the 2008 financial crisis with Obama? Because that nosedive, which landed lower in 2009 than we hit in 2020, has a clear nosedive starting in 2004. Please don’t tell me you think the astonishingly-low gas prices in 2020 were Trump’s doing, either. People literally stopped driving altogether and oil companies couldn’t offload ships since demand was so low. I’m not really sure who you’re concerned about regarding WW3 that you think would be a powerful player that isn’t in NATO and isn’t already against the US. But really, it’s impressive to think Trump’s tenure was such a safe haven of global peace when Russia, one of 2 likely opponents, was thrilled with Trump because he was friendly to them. That’s not peacekeeping or carrying a big stick, that’s Putin making the marionette dance.

    I implore you to check out a few additional “news” sources and actual analyst sources. If your news sources get emotional, that’s not news. If your analyst sources cite high school polls, that’s not analysis. If your source of stats is unverified text-over-pictures or commentary social media videos, God help us all.
