It’s VP Harris They Don’t Want
It’s not Biden’s age that’s the real problem.
Because President Biden is 80 years old, there are many who choose to believe he’s knocking on death’s door and could die unexpectedly any day now. That’s true for any of us, but I won’t pretend that it’s not more probable the older you get.
It doesn’t matter how well he does his job.
In some people’s minds, in the not so distant future, he won’t be able to do his job properly anymore even though he does not have any form of dementia.
All old people do not have, or get, dementia. It is not a normal part of aging contrary to popular belief.
Donald Trump is only around four years younger than Biden, but his supporters for some reason believe he’s still a spring chicken.
However, right now, I’m not talking about Trump’s supporters.
I’m talking about white Biden supporters, or Democrats, who are hesitant to vote for him again next year because they believe he’s too old to do his job effectively.
I think this is an honest concern of theirs.
Biden is in the top 5% of the world’s oldest leaders.
However, they’re not simply afraid of Biden becoming incapacitated during his presidency.
