Cuomo's potential challenger is also accused of sexual misconduct. With so many of these stories coming out, you'd think it were an integral part of American political culture! 🤔 https://t.co/iBcDH47wLV — PolitiTweet.org

@ischinger But it is what it is. What I'm saying is that when you elect old people to public office, they might not be as spry and healthy as a 30 year old, but that doesn't mean they're unfit for the job. — PolitiTweet.org

@ischinger I don't think it's a condemnation, as much as a statement of reality. Statistically, older people tend to have more health problems, and when they're politicians, the opposing side gloms on to them as proof of senility—it is cynical and unfair. — PolitiTweet.org

@djshort Yes, but major news networks don't make hay of it as proof of your declining abilities. — PolitiTweet.org

You can't pretend Trump is a spring chicken and Biden has one foot in the grave—or vice versa. — PolitiTweet.org

To clarify: everyone trips, young, old, and me. I trip. A lot. The issue is patently different in these two cases: when Trump seemed unsteady and Biden tripped, their political opponents used it as evidence that they were too old and unhealthy to be POTUS. That's it. — PolitiTweet.org

Look, we spent a lot of time talking about Trump walking unsteadily down a ramp. Now we're talking about Biden tripping on the stairs. They're both old men, with just 4 years difference between them. This is what happens when you elect very old people to the presidency. — PolitiTweet.org

Putin has more to say about Joe Biden today: he would like to participate in a live, online debate with him. I think Putin, like much of Russian state media, have bought the "Biden is senile" line. https://t.co/JOVtr34MZo — PolitiTweet.org

He then goes on to decry America's "genocide of Native Americans" and its history of slavery and racism "that continues to this day." Sound familiar @Mpolymer? — PolitiTweet.org

MAJOR UPDATE: In the longer video, Putin goes on to say that Biden and the U.S. are projecting. "When we were kids in the schoolyard," he goes on, "we used to say: 'I'm rubber, you're glue...'!'"* *Can also be translated to "Whoever smelt it, dealt it." Level's about the same. — PolitiTweet.org
