    I’m not saying they’re politically the same, because obviously they’re not. Trump being such a danger to American democracy and the health and safety of many Americans is why I’m highlighting this absurdity.

    I’m saying if you were in a room talking to either of these octogenarians, you’d probably be uncomfortable handing either of them a loaded gun let alone the nuclear codes and command authority over a military super power.

    We shouldn’t have to be choosing between two people this old. Age and cognitive decline is an unavoidable fact, but the DNC and raw fear of “changing horses midstream” by democratic voters has us hoping that we’ll get an 86 year old leaving office in four years.

    Because the stakes are so high and the consequences between Trump and not-Trump are so important, it’s insane to be running Biden as the alternative. There basically running at a dead heat right now, and I can’t help but think that might no be the case if we weren’t running the Crypt Keeper against Cheetolini.
