Biden added: “Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false.”

God damn, so politically stupid to not realize that these political attacks works since he’s still defending himself from these same political attacks.

    We should have extensive yearly testing through an impartial third party so this can’t be questioned again.

    Let’s start with the current president tomorrow.

      Or we can you know put a cap on the president’s age. 35-65 should be a big enough window to become president.

        Nah, that’s stupid and ridiculous.

        Age is just a number and with advances in science, is likely to become even more arbitrary.

          There’s already ageist restrictions.

          It’s the simplest and cleanest way to do it at the moment.

          I’m ok with ageism because age related problems are very real and science tells us they get bad at about 60 or so. This is not about a bias, its about a fact of our existence. But lots of people want to conflate ageism with other forms of bias like sexism or racism. They arent the same at all.

          Let me ask you, do you think 110 year olds should be allowed to operate semi trucks or fly planes? Of course you dont. Why not?

          I’m in my mid 50s and I and everyone I know will acknowledge that mid 50s individuals dont have the depth of stamina to draw on that we used to have. Sure we can still occasionally run circles around the better resourced youngins with some finesse and tricks, but only to a point-- we aren’t likely to win as many large energy expenditure activities on average, physically or mentally. Thats just life. And what I am talking about here accelerates right about at 60. Its been well studied.

    A distraction from what, the pudding cup before naptime? Or his latest speech supporting genocide?

      The “spending” bill in the senate has a clause that attempts to illegally rewrite the constitution to give the administrative branch dictatorship levels of control, with no ability for the judicial branch to stop them.
