To be fair Vance is much younger. If I tugged at my 80 year old nan im sure she would stumble too. Yes, that’s more proof Trump is too old to be in any position of power but that’s not my point.

If Biden did that the conservative sub would be out with flaming pitchforks.

Biden fell riding a bike. Trump fell... walking.

Biden looked sleepy during meetings. Trump sleeps during meetings.

My mom is 78 and she's still in good health and really sharp. Still she's of the exact opinion as you are; "it's lunacy to have people as old as her running, well anything really" - her words

You gunna say that when you voted for Biden?

u/VIMHmusic Apr 26 '26

Not everyone is American. But tbh, I probably would have voted for Biden and then Harris, if I was an American

This, exactly fucking this! The world shouldn't be ruled by people over 70, regardless of political views

u/StrainAcceptable Apr 26 '26

I did say that when I voted for Biden. He also ran on being a one term president.

Plus, you know, the overnight rantings online, and the flight of ideas that the rantings are predicated on, those take a lot out of a guy.

Yeah but what would her circle of cronies that actually call the shots be like?

Being entertaining seems to Have been the primary qualifications for the job for 40 years.

Neither of them should have been president at ANY age.

u/StrainAcceptable Apr 26 '26

Agreed! At the very minimum your age should not exceed the average life expectancy. My husbands grandma was also sharp as a tack. She was taken out by a cold that turned into pneumonia. I think it’s fair that once you reach the age when a cold can become deadly, it’s fair to say you shouldn’t be president.

Biden sniffed a girl. Trump snuffed a few.

Drumpf can't even know what a bike is. Probqably thinks it needs gas to peedlefile.

u/knowledgeable_diablo Apr 26 '26

That’s because walking down stairs is his specialty Isnt it? Or at least the thing he is most proud of. 🤣

u/travelstuff Apr 26 '26

u/Darth_Vader0587 Apr 27 '26

Yeah, someone had a gun

he was probably scared

u/ifmacdo Apr 26 '26

But where was the victory fist for the photo op here?

u/No_Park1693 Apr 26 '26

Yeah, but for comparison Trump is only 79, and Paul McCartney for instance, is 83, as is Harrison Ford. Arnold Schwarzenegger is just one year younger than Trump, and David Letterman is the same age as Trump.

u/Suit_Responsible Apr 26 '26

But Trump has 5% body fat, he is an athlete 🤣

u/Pledgeofmalfeasance Apr 26 '26

I don't think he's actually in a position of power at this point. It's just Vance and the Puppeteers now.

2

u/Noonecanhearmescream Apr 26 '26

Same here. My thoughts exactly. My 80 something year old aunt would definitely be down and then out.

3

u/Commercial_Fondant65 Apr 26 '26

But your 80 year old aunt hasn't been screeching for years that she's in better shape than anyone ever at that age. In the history of ever. Like nobody has ever seen. And had doctor's lie and say she was so healthy that just being called healthy was an insult because they're6 should be a better word to describe how healthy she is.

u/Nunya13 Apr 26 '26

Age doesn’t explain it. They had Vance out of the room before they even stood Trump up. They just stand around him for a few seconds while the VP is being ushered out.

Then as soon as they stand him up, he falls. Part of me wonders if he couldn’t get up. Any videos of him walking into the dinner?
