Don't forget, Trump is also old.

But he aced a beautiful cognitive test with flying colors. We should be proud of him for this.

Trump's old AND he's a liar.

That stole US state secrets. Weird that that's been forgotten, we used to give people the electric chair for that.

Debating which pile of shit stinks worse isn’t the gotcha you intended

That's true, but Trump has the advantage of only saying crazy things. His tone and facial expressions have always been a bit odd/crazy, so they don't stand out so much as deteriorating with his age.

Carter is the oldest living President at nearly 100 years old. However, after him Biden and Trump are #s 2 and 3. That means both are older than Clinton, who hasn't been president for 24 years.

Also, while we're keeping details in mind, the "poll" this headline is referencing is a sample group of 12 Latinos.

Yes, but if you knew nothing about either guy, and you watch the debate, you're telling me you'd think they are the same age? Biden is so slow, Reddit is just EXTREMELY liberal and think Biden is their guy.

I can't imagine not knowing anything about either guy at this point, but after watching both for a few years all I can say is that they both are old as fuck and have trouble stringing coherent sentences together. For some reason though Trump gets a pass because his incoherent babble is "forceful".

I hate Trump just as much as the rest of Reddit. But I’m not gonna sit here and say they seem equally old. Democrats are just asking to lose this election. Trump is either hated or loved, i see why the republicans nominate him. Biden’s term sucked for most people, he seems like he’s confused and ready to be in a nursing home. All democrats need to do, is choose ANYONE, 25-30 years young than Biden, who seems to have their head on straight, and they get the vote. Nominating Biden is risky IMO.

Edit: and it’s really not hard to imagine like you know nothing about them… put your biases aside and just watch ANY clip of them talking during the debate. I don’t care if Trump is rambling on about nonsense, at least he’s talking and doesn’t seem like he’s gonna have a medical emergency at any moment. Biden is like a half notch better than Motch McConnell, just staring off into space 75% of the time.

And Biden is still clearly the better choice. That’s how bad this all is

But what I'm saying is... the past 4 years haven't been spectacular for you average person. At least with Trump, your paychecks were higher. Now people are gonna choose between more of the same, or back to Trump. Literally ANYONE besides Biden would be an easy win IMO.... You automatically get the Trump hater votes, then the people on the fence who voted Biden but aren't happy about the outcome get to gamble on a totally new person.

Biden also lied to be fair. I’m Finn annoy everyone by saying that but it is true.

Don’t forget, Biden also lies.
