Can you point to one time on the forum where you commented on Biden's age?

I've so far never commented on anyone's age. But both candidates were old af and trump people made age the main issue and everyone was resigned to that reality. 

So now that's been the main issue for years, and biden is out, we're left with suddenly old af trump with unhinged tirades about sharks and other old man nonsense.

Trump people made Bidens mental health the main issue. Again, both are old, but only one was barely sentient. 

Trump doesn't need to be protected from the Press by someone dressed up like the Easter Bunny. Trump doesn't need the Secret Service to stand in his way and point to him how to find the door to his own home...

Trump didn't make Biden's age an issue, Matty.

Trump correctly identified Biden's diminished mental capacity as an issue. 

It's like saying that conservatives identify all Dem females who got their first political appointments at the age of 29 as political prostitutes. We don't, we only identify Kamala Harris as a political prostitute.

Yep so now that we're all primed to compare age and mental faculties thanks to trump, trump now gets to be on the receiving end of those comparisons.

Anyone can.

Mental conditions aren't exclusive to the elderly. 

If Trump's mental health was an issue then it would be important to notice.

Now?

He always could have been. You and others are not actually criticizing anything specific, you are just making general comments about age or others are nit picking things out of some desperate attempt to try to show Trump to be as bad as Biden.

Trump supporters shouldn't be talking about prostitutes.😆

Perhaps Trump supporters shouldn't talk about sleeping WITH prostitutes. 

But he's referencing that she IS a prostitute. 

I think most people would say actually being one is the worse of the two

Who said Trump slept with a prostitute? 

He slept with a Playboy bunny and a porn star. 

Given the opportunity, 95% of men would sleep with those women if they thought that they could get away with it. 

 

Also, you're comparing "sex with a porn star" to "prostituting oneself". 

Kamala Harris got her first two "lucrative" political appointments from old balls, and he was a major reason she became the AG. I gotta admit, she must give good noggin.

His age has been an issue for years, but biden attracted more attention about it. Now with biden out, trump gets the old man commentary. I don't see why you're so sad about it. If it's not a real issue of legitimate concern, it will go away.

His age has never been an issue. It's just a polite way of saying he's becoming befuddled, which is seen as being due to his age.  

Trumps age is not an issue. If he started to forget where he was, or started calling biden his veep on a regular basis etc then people would have  a problem. 

It's this kind of dishonesty on the left that's giving trump a huge boost.  Trump is old, but he's got his crap together and obviously isn't impared.  Biden was impared and should not currently be the president of the united states.

You continue to avoid the point, I presume because you realize how your position is obliterated by it. 

Here you go one more time:

The issue with Biden was not merely that he was old. It was that he was barely sentient. The man can barely walk and is clearly incapable of going a full day at full mental capacity. They have terms for stuff like this, like sundowning. 

Trump is old, but he is not suffering those same kind of afflictions that Biden clearly was.

That's a good point and I do agree with this. But just because he's not as bad doest mean his own particular state of decline is irrelevant.

You would have to demonstrate it was relevant then. So far he appears to be completely unimpaired in any detectible way (he doesn't sound any more crazy than he always has) .

It is not a matter of not as bad. Trump is not suffering from any of those conditions as Biden is. 

You are just rewording what being old means. Almost everyone is in a particular state of decline... as we are all aging every moment of our lives.

Joe Biden is irrelevant to the issue of Donald Trump being an elderly man in decline.

I agree. This is not a very good tactic. I doubt Trump would use it, though.

You literally said just because he was not as bad... in a comparison with Biden. 

Biden is 100% relevant in that comparison. 

Trump is no more in decline than every adult is as they age.

Not at all. He's now the bar by which others are measured.  And trump is no where near that level. 

the dems claimed biden was great right up to that level so they'll have to accept that for trump too.

While I don't doubt that there are political hacks who wrongly accuse women in politics of being whores, prostituting themselves, selling their bodies to advance their careers or whatever you would prefer to call it, that doesn't mean it never happens, and it's just a well-known fact that in this instance she slept with him and he gave her lucrative political appointments.

I'll lock that down in quotes for you: "Kamala Harris was granted two lucrative political appointments from 60-yr-old Willie Brown when she was a 29-yr-old who was having sex with him". It's undeniable. That 100% happened.  There's literally no doubt about it whatsoever.

USA today on the Harris-Brown relationship:

• Among the issues that followed Harris from her time with Brown was the allegation of cronyism in his appointment of her to two well-paying posts.

Two things there:

1. Allegation of cronyism (that means an accusation that he gave things to people based on their relationship to him instead of their merits)
2. "his appointment of her to two well-paying posts". That's a statement of fact, indicating that he actually did appoint her to those spots unilaterally, and the positions were lucrative.

Sure, you can say that "maybe he didn't just give her those appointments because he was banging her like a Salvation Army drum", but he didn't give her any political appointments before she started having sex with him, and there were over 30M people in California that he could have given those appointments to, but he gave them both to her.

 

It's quite rude of you to accuse me of casting aspersions here when all I'm doing is bringing the facts to light.

I think Chrissy1979 is right here overall, though. If I were Trump I wouldn't bring this up. He has lots to attack her on without having to get dirty, and it happened 20 years ago or so. He just has to hammer her on the border, the economy, etc. She has no good answers for that, and she babbles when she is asked about it. Whenever they got dirty on Trump it just made him more popular.
