    Anyone see him speak and wonder if he is ok?  I swear he lost a step this last year.

    We have age limits on pilots.  Anyone think we should have one on a president?
    Seems the same as he's been the last few years. Clearly has lost a step but no, I haven't noticed anything different in the last year. The stutter is more pronounced. Results thus far have been pretty good and that is all that matters. I think Trump's decline was more pronounced. 

    I do think age limits are something to consider, though. Not just for presidents but for all members of government. Have you seen the things Chuck Grassley has said or tweeted recently? Dude is pushing 90. Term limits are badly needed.

    When he started running he had fire in him.  I don't see it as much now.  I do see him focusing on his speech more and that might have something to do w the stutter?

    And age should be something to bring up.  Why our country celebrates old white men as leaders baffles me.

    I think "fire" is for the campaign trail. He now has a difficult job and is managing a pandemic that has killed a half million people. That is sobering for normal, functioning human beings. I think, after the last four years, it might be difficult to remember a president who feels and shows empathy.

    And focuses on the job, rather than constantly campaigning and unloading on his grievances.

    I read a decent thread the other day about why it's good that Biden hasn't been speaking much. 

    One of the noted points was how polarized our country is right now, and how polarizing a figure he himself is at this moment. The fact that he isn't in front of the cameras giving sound bites on a regular basis isn't a bad thing.

    I LOVE the fact that he is relatively boring and not in our faces every hour of every day. Such a refreshing change of pace.

    That's part of it too.

    People aren't hearing from the guy 24/7 so they think there's something wrong.

    That is a very valid point.  Trump never saw a camera that he didn't like.

    there's a minimum age. 

    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    you all will be happy to know that biden's recent speech to the country beat trump's in the ratings, and biden did not tweet about it.

    i would rather have him sit in the background and do his job than be out front grandstanding, tweeting, and gaslighting 18 hours per day.

    Jeez Trump's awfulness really set a low bar for Joe when not tweeting about ratings and not putting his name on stimulus checks is considered noteworthy. But to Joe's credit, he's been clearing the low bar so that's good.

    How do we even know he's still alive? Maybe they put Kevin Kline in heavy make-up for that Thursday speech.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Because he will fly all over the country reminding you he sent you a check. These guys in cases like this aren’t that different. They are all politicians in some ways.
