Joe Biden and Mitch McConnell struck up a friendship during their nearly quarter-century in the Senate together. Now in their 80s, the Democratic president and the Senate GOP leader appear to be giving political cover to each other as they fend off questions about their advanced age and health issues.
Notably, McConnell, R-Ky., 81, hasnāt joined Donald Trump, 77, and other Republicans who have attacked Bidenās age, health and mental acuity as he seeks re-election.
And after McConnellās second freeze-up last week, Biden was one of the first to call McConnell, telling reporters that his āfriendā sounded like āhis old selfā and that such episodes are a āpart of his recoveryā from a fall and a concussion this year.
The u.s has a sickness. You guys are such sycophants for your politicians. Itās like watching a sports team fandom, but for politics.
Answer him you coward
There is no answer to cult fandom. The u.s is two cults, one more conservative than the other and when you call out a democrat they immediately go tribal and call you a right winger, without thinking that to me youāre the one who is way too fucking conservative.
You guys will blame each other for everything the government does, while saying āitās not my guys fault, heās only president he has no power!ā With a straight face. You guys are fucked, utterly fucked if youāve gone tribal and thrown up Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders as your examples of what politics should be.
Iām not American so I donāt have a horse in the race beyond how much your countryās sick politics infect mine. You guys are all gross. Stop defending billionaires and politicians.
But you didnāt call anyone out. You made an ignorant statement, and then deflected when you were confronted.
The irony of going on a āboth sidesā rant because you were called on your bullshit on an independent senator out of all things. One of the few 2 or 3 senator that isnāt part of this tribal cult youāre going on about. You really sound like an ignorant stupid person tbh.
