It's what I have been thinking too.

These anti Biden post have had their time. We've discussed them to death here on DU. I think it is now time to start banning these concern trolls and Biden-is-too-old posts.

Yeah some big names in the Democratic party have been manipulated into repeating RNC talking points about Biden. That's too bad. Maybe it's more a symptom of their excessive age than it is of Biden's. But this needs to end. It will tear apart our party.

It is so much like what happened in 2016. The reason I know is because in 2016, I too fell for the Russian trolls, bots, bribes and corporate media Pro Pedo Trump spin and corporate fake polls.

In 2016, I really believed Hillary should have stood down. I was stupid and wrong. I was hoping for this magical Dem candidate to come out of the woodwork and be the left leaning liberal I could only imagine.

That's what is happening now. I can see it repeating itself in real time. The bots, the social media hype by Pro Russian owners, Russian money, trolls and stupidity. The corporate media in bed with Pedo Trump never bringing up his psychopathic behavior, his lies, his crimes.

Maybe if we nip it in the bud here other outlets would follow suit. But at least we would not be exposed to this media manipulation here on DU.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
