So what? We are age discriminating now because we elected a 78 year old? This thread ended up being a pretty good one. But the premise was really weird. But if it makes you feel good, kudos. Talk to your therapist about it. Then you’ll feel awesome.
Joe Biden was too old!

That's the worst part of the Biden saga. The man was in severe mental decline for years, but she kept pushing him and telling everyone around him to STFU and keep him in power. In reality, she was the power hungry despot. She was the authoritarian and dictator. Joe knew practically nothing of what was going on around him.
I’m sure there were others too who kept pushing for him to keep going. But as his wife, she failed him. Real deplorable behavior.
Then you have the wrong definition. There are more instances of people in their 80's and 90's who are more self-aware and sharp than some 40 year olds. There are also people in their 40's and 50's who are, by definition, senile. Look around!
When you've been around senility and have had the opportunity to actually see it in people you love and care about, let me know.
Yep. She was the worst, but others around him who wanted that same power were pushing to keep him there. His puppet masters.
You are a reasonable guy. I don't get why you are arguing with semantics? Biden was incredibly diminished physically and cognitively. Why are you splitting hairs?
Say what you want about my wife. But you have a beautiful family.
I can’t agree. When you’re hiring someone, you cast the net as broadly as you can and you take the best possible candidate regardless of things such as age…and other things. Don’t limit your pool.
Yeah, I wouldn’t be totally against an age limit. But my point is that not all 80 year-olds are the same. Hell look at what Warren Buffett was doing in his 80s.
And while Trump may not be many people’s cup of tea, he has shown a good amount of vitality for his age.
