Isn't funny? No not at all!

How just a few days, most of the media said “Biden was too old and couldn’t handle the pressure of another term”?

Well today, most of the media outlets are praising him for the way he handled and presented himself during the State of the Union speech.

Wait for it? They will change the narrative back his age next week, just they can ratings? Yet, they gloss over Trump and his mental breakdown when speaking!

It probably won’t last, but at least they look stupid now for beating that drum for so long. The WaPo Editorial Board wrote an opinion piece saying Biden did a good job and then chastising him and Democrats for not planning to cut entitlements like Social Security and Medicare to handle the deficit! All of us who paid into Social Security for 40+ years are dammed sure entitled to receive our money back. I’m so tired of the right-wing trope that these programs must be cut to reduce the deficit. There are better ways, like fair taxes for the rich and wealthy corporations.
