40. I'm just so sick of all the pearl clutching

Mon Jun 22, 2026, 08:55 PM

Monday

As if that was the first time in history an administration actively tried to mask the frailties of the President. I mean I’m old enough to remember the last couple of years of the Reagan administration.

I think if Biden’s age issues were so bad, we would’ve seen it manifested in other areas like we do with the current administration. And every senior cabinet member who worked with him closely insist he was well enough to do the job.
