(25,031 posts)and then seem him publicly speak. It's just such a glaring contradiction. I just don't feel particularly bothered about it. I mean, do people think that he's going to wake up one day and start WW3? No. Do I trust the people around Biden to speak up and prevent him from causing WW3 if he really WERE out of it? Yes. Do I feel the same about Trump? No!!!!
I think that for some on the left, the age "issue" is really more about them feeling that he is "out of touch" with their values, concerns, etc. and that they'd prefer to choose somebody else they perceive as more in touch with them and more progressive. I'm already starting though to see some of them abandoning the talk about voting third party or not voting as it grows closer to the election and realizing that Trump is going to be the GOP nominee again and that they're going to have to suck it up and vote Biden again to stop Trump.
