Donald Trump is now the oldest party nominee for president in US history
Joe Biden's age was his biggest liability — now Democrats can flip the script on arguments that Biden was too old to lead and apply them to Trump.
- At 78 years old, former President Donald Trump is now the oldest nominee running for president.
- Joe Biden, 81, dropped out of the race on Sunday and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, 59.
- If she becomes the Democratic nominee, Harris' age could be an advantage against Trump.
He should drop out.
Old sleepy Don. They call him the incoherent rambler. Everyone is saying it.
He should drop dead.
Beat me to it. Yup - he should drop dead and then rest in piss.
As much as I hate trump. I'd rather have that narcissistic shit of a useful idiot sitting between us and Vance if that fucking fascist ever gets near that seat.
That guy is everything wrong with trump wrapped up in a more emotionally intelligent, sharper, more charismatic, more attractive, and younger package.
He's the exact sort of motherfucker I've been expecting them to push after him to take advantage of the path he created, and its fucking terrifying.
There is no way anyone would be able to convince Trump to drop out. He decided in 2019 that he was entitled to a second term. He's not going to change his mind now.
I don't think Trump has the stature of someone who's overcome a social disability. That guy oozes neurotypical privilege.
Not only is he the oldest, but he's also the facist-est cadidate.
Father Coughlin is probably kicking himself in hell for never running for president.
Age DOESN'T MATTER!
-Republicans who are NOT in a Cult and complained about Joe Biden's age for the last 6 months!
I mean, for those people, age doesn't matter for a lot of things.
And that's before all the laws he broke... And trying to undermine the American constitution... And the changing the system so he could be immune.
Let's not forget those things too.
On TOP! Of him being far too old.
Too old, he's unelectable
He was unelectable in 2016, and yet he scraped through in the electoral college. Admittedly Hillary Clinton beat him for total number of votes, so he was already a bit of a loser then. Oh - remember when he claimed his inauguration was more popular than Obama's and then they showed the photos and his crowd was just tiny by comparison! He's so insecure. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp-content/uploads/sites/47/2017/03/Untitled-1.jpg
Obama brought hope, he brought hum... hate ?
What I find most mad is that Kamala Harris is nearing retirement age for many industries - yet compared to many in her line of work she seems like she's in her thirties and has a whole new career ahead of her.
Remember back in 2001 when everyone freaked out at Cheney's age? He was 60. Our "young" potential candidate is 59.
Oh no, it seems you didn't get the memo! Commenting on a candidates physical year count and mental decrepitude is now ageist and forbidden. Please be better in the future. - CNN
Dementia Donald is no match for Capable Kamala
I just walked my dog past a big red pickup truck with stickers that had a picture of Biden with "I just shit my pants" and "BLM: Biden Loves Minors" (so classy) and it really struck me how extremely Biden focused the Republican memes have been.
Like we used to have "Pelosi is secretly running things" or like even Mitt Romney was running against Obama but his attacks were about Democrats as a whole, they were tax and spend liberals building the nanny state.
The flip side to Trump's immature style is that it IS extremely specific, and like you can't just go "actually it's Meatball Nikki Haley." Obviously you can invent different immature nicknames and memes but it is hard to telegraph them with the convention out of the way.
I just saw a headline that Trump appears to be upset because he's spent so much time and money fighting Biden, and none fighting Harris or other potential candidates.
I laughed.
I think he's aged beyond coming up with his own nicknames.
The Trump writing team is probably working around the clock to come up with names that are racist enough for the cult to enjoy, without being racist enough to censor on TV.
It boggles my mind. If you tallied up all the cars that have Biden’s name or picture on them, I bet they’d be overwhelmingly owned by MAGA folks. Why???
I honestly can't think of anytime I've ever seen a car with a pro-Biden bumper sticker on it. I've even seen a few for Clinton when she ran but never Biden.
media be like
PASS THE TORCH He's done it many times, at the KKK rallies in the woods that he's probably attended.
My ultimate hope is that Trump decoheres to the point of never having a future chance of winning but keeps running anyways, ultimately blocking the party as a whole. Karmic punishment for raising this guy to a seat of power in the first place.
My ultimate hope is that he dies in prison.
Ew he should resign
