Being too old shouldn’t even be brought up in the same discussion as being a criminal or fascist as they aren’t equivalent.

2 out of 3 of those are immediately disqualifying for me. The third is unfortunate but I'll take old over criminal fascists every day and twice on Sunday.

I don't get the "Biden is too old" thing. He's just 3 years older than Trump, and voters had no issue with that. Bernie Sanders is even older than Biden, but voters again seem to have no issue with that.

And Biden is smart and fit enough to appoint young people, smart people, and listening to them. He knows how to get shit done because of his experience, but he listens to the younger people.

tons of voters had (and still have) a huge amount of problems with how old all 3 are. it was a constant sticking point in 2016 and 2020.
