    If this is this a gaffe, what is it when Trump strings together his incoherent, incomplete, and nonsensical ramblings?

      It’s really hard to say it’s not a big deal when Biden does it, because when trump does it Biden gives him shit about it.

      A gaffe is just slipping on words once but still knowing what you meant. If you look at Biden full quote, he made multiple mistakes and was just rambling.

      They’re both old and get confused which is 100% normal for their ages…

      It’s just illustrative of why people of that age shouldn’t be in important and powerful positions in our government

        Yeah, the US needs to get its act together and stop electing people so close to the life expectancy.

        Is this because the founding fathers wore those white wigs or something? Lol

          SC justices too.

          Sotomeyer is a type 1 diabetic, and is literally at the life expectancy for a woman with type 1 diabetes…

          People make the argument that she “has the best healthcare” but one of the most important things with that is managing stress, and she’s repeatedly making public statements about how stressful it is .

          She’s 100% going to die in office before she resigns, she learned absolutely nothing from RBG.

          We need to stop ignoring that chronological age is a real thing, and has real effects on a person’s ability.

          But since everyone in our top positions are so old they’re personally losing their mental abilities, they’ll never admit it.

          And the boomers that are “next” sure as shit aren’t going to make better decisions, and we can’t afford to wait another 30 years for them to die off.

          We need to fix shit now
