The special counsel’s report and President Biden’s performance at a last-minute news conference on Thursday night placed his age, the singularly uncomfortable subject looming over his re-election bid, back at the center of America’s political conversation. nyti.ms/3uvl4a4
Good thing he's not fucking running against a guy who's essentially the same goddamn age and has been charged with dozens and dozens of felonies and found liable for sexual assault
you're right, it's uncomfortable
Is this a rhetorical question? Because no. No they will not. Everything must be reported through the “this is bad for Biden because” lens. Any Trump screwup is only important in that it puts the focus on Biden’s age somehow.
biden's totally lucid, coherent spry young opponent who never mixes up names like Haley : Pelosi or who was president before him should make hay of Biden messing up 1 foreign leaders name.
No, YOU placed it there while exempting from conversation a guy just a few years younger and objectively more addled and emotionally unstable because you want future book deals.
where's your article about Trump confusing Nikki Haley, his ambassador to the U.N. with Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House during his administration?
could you post the link to that, for transparency?
Or did your constant disproportionate coverage of this issue put it squarely in the center of the public's attention?
But who cares about governance or policy when there's a horse race to monetize, right?
I know this is getting so annoying I’m just ignoring all this coverage. When Obama ran against McCain like I get that coverage I think McCain was like 71 at the time. But these are two men both in the twilight of their lives.
Nothing but the NYT and the idiotic both-sidesing media is putting Biden’s age at the center of the national discourse. Trump is easily more incoherent every single day, and practically the same age.
“how did this get to the center of the conversation,” ask the people who set the agenda for the conversation and have decided to only ever talk about this
"As reporters, we're completely powerless because the news reports itself."
If you had any awareness whatsoever, you'd be paralyzed with self-contempt.
