Biden’s problem isn’t old age

I’m sick of hearing that President Biden is incompetent because he is old.

Yes, he is clumsy and forgetful. As someone who has cared for elderly people suffering from dementia, I recognize the behaviors. But his most disturbing character traits have been present since he was young man.

  • Lying about his academic record
  • Lying about his athletic record
  • Plagiarizing the writings of others.
  • Collecting payments from foreign governments
  • Sniffing women and girls
  • Showering with his daughter
  • Spearheading unwarranted attacks on highly qualified judicial nominees.
  • Making up all sorts of ridiculous stories about his heroics that never happened

And, of course, there is the little issue that he entered “public service” with modest means and piled up millions of dollars courtesy of the taxpayers. He is a walking (or stumbling) pile of ethical and character faults.

This pile of faults has nothing to do with old age. Biden has been a selfish, egomaniac, dishonest, disgrace of a man his entire life.  And as a man in his ‘70s, I resent his failings being blamed on his age.
