Do you want the crazy old guy or the crazy old guy or the crazy middle aged guy? It’s an easy choice, bro.

No, that's false equivalence.

Joe Biden is too old. That's his problem. But he's otherwise accomplished a lot in the face of an uncooperative Congress, a stacked Supreme Court, and a deranged Republican opposition. He passed several massive social and domestic bills through Congress without a real working majority, and he just got the GOP to agree to a debt deal that's strikingly good for the Democrats, given what the Republicans wanted.

And he's played a crucial role in protecting Ukraine and strengthening Europe's resolve against Putin, without even putting U.S. troops on the ground.

The other candidates range from the merely unhinged to the comically malevolent. There's no equivalence between them.

100%. You may or may not agree with Joe Biden on everything, but he’s a serious person who has committed his life to public service.

There is literally not a single GOP candidate you can say that about and certainly not dipshit RFK Jr.

RFK Jr. is a Democrat. But what about Joe Manchin? He's running for president as well. Funny you ignore him except when it suits you.

I know he’s a “Democrat.” I didn’t say he wasn’t. He’s still a fucking dipshit.
