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.

    IMO the more amazing thing is that he’s since referenced his uncle multiple times as proof that he himself is smart.

    Like, aside from all the crazy rambling, he buys into eugenics to such an extent that he thinks his uncle being smart necessarily means that he is also smart. And, he assumes his audience will also believe that intelligence is a hereditary trait like that.

      Apparently they do believe it. Either that or they just accept that he does and don’t care. But I’d say believing in eugenics is more likely.
