Where's everyone who questioned Biden's age and fitness?

Rex Huppke: Trump is 78 and barely coherent. Where's everyone who questioned Biden's age and fitness? Where are the headlines screaming: 'Deranged old man peddles nonsense while threatening violent deportation of immigrants'?

"If Biden, as the Democratic nominee, had gone on a rambling verbal tear like that, GOP lawmakers would be calling for him to be institutionalized and cable news panels would be discussing how the 25th Amendment works.

But The New York Times' initial report on Trump's babble said this:

"In a jumbled answer, he said he would prioritize legislation on the issue but offered no specifics and insisted that his other economic policies, including tariffs, would take care' of child care."

Oh, c'mon.

A 78-year-old convicted felon running for president rants nonsensically, demonstrating an inability to hold a thought or understand an important issue, and it's deemed "a jumbled answer"?"

...and it's deemed "a jumbled answer"?"

It's not a jumbled answer. It's a "weave". And it's amazing.

Trump calls Harris a bitch in private. Let's see if he'll do that on live TV.

Simple...

The Democratic Party is different than the Republican Party of the Trump cult.

I have asked on a few occasions recently when the Republican Party will replace the (I'll be kind) aging candidate they currently have for President.

Crickets.

The Media could lose billions if this isn't a close race; I somehow doubt they are going to do anything that would change that... like report on Trump the way they did Biden, for instance.

An ignorant, mean-spirited, nasty old loon. Yeah, he's out of it. But when you wrap him up in hair dye, plastic spray, pancake makeup, a sagging girdle and touch of lipstick? Still a pig.

I'm old enough to remember when the media cared about an elderly candidate that was in mental decline.

Hypocrisy is not a concept for these people. That notion enters into their lives not at all. I pity anyone who has to suffer direct or indirect contact with them; anyone they have shred of power over.

Dumb question.

Democrats aren't Republicans.

There's still integrity in the DNC.

The GQP has become a breeding ground for angry morons.

Republicans never argue anything in good faith

#11 | Posted by hamburglar at 2024-09-10 07:03 PM

This stupid question again? Every Democrat that questioned Biden's age & mental fitness were never going to vote for Trump in the first place.

#12 | Posted by sitzkrieg at 2024-09-10 07:13 PM

Every Trumper who mocked Biden's age suddenly find no reason to question Trump's age.

#13 | Posted by ClownShack at 2024-09-10 07:52 PM

Der Dotard's demonstration of his broken mental state in last night's debate would normally seal the deal for voters on the fence or GOPers looking for a reason to ignore their party's candidate. Not this year. Rumor has it the Harris-Walz campaign wants another debate. El Naranja vieja y gorda has a devil's choice: pass on the invitation and be called a coward, or show up and suffer another humiliation. And people still think this person can govern?

Where's everyone who questioned Biden's age and fitness?

Probably still shilling for and/or prostrating themselves before a belarded 78-year-old prone to slathering himself in pancake makeup and hairspray while belching out an endless word flush focusing on his insecurities, mommy-daddy-and-lady issues, racism, and memememememe.

Simple, Trump won the primary. You know that democratic thing where the people are involved?

Isn't it incredible how deplorable Trumping MAGAts, like FishChum, suddenly don't know how our elections work.

Republicans really need to stop trying to prove how ignorant they are.

Deranged old man peddles nonsense ...

That's a great summary of Trump's debate performance.

#18 | Posted by ClownShack at 2024-09-11 02:40 PM

No one questioned Biden's age you clown. It had something to do with constantly falling down and lacking the ability to make complete, understandable sentences.
Biden fell up stairs, down stairs, off a bike, on a stage, shook hands with imaginary people and got lost on where to exit when leaving the podium multiple times.

More fantasy -------- from the mouth-breathing crackhead. Have you eaten your neighbor's cat today?

#20 | Posted by LegallyYourDead at 2024-09-11 06:46 PM

After seeing Biden's last debate I had questions about his ability to get reelected.

That's why with a clean conscious I can say Trump needs to end his campaign.

"Where's everyone who questioned Biden's age and fitness?"

Why? Is he cured now?

#22 | Posted by phesterOBoyle at 2024-09-12 09:49 AM

After seeing the last debate it's clear Trump is a very lucid liar. He reliably hit the same lies over & over again, and even reliably ended them with "In my opinion".

He doesn't need to be forced out like Biden. He just needs to lose.

If you find a cure for old age Trumpy will gladly pay you Tuesday for the cure today.
