75 should be required retirement age for Any elected government official. All commercial airline pilots have to retire at age 65. It's sad to see these congressmen and senators go into office as average earners and come out much later Multimillionaires all on a $160K a year job. The perks, special interest / lobbyist deals, and insider trading will get you fifthly rich.

Sounds a bit like another politician I know as well. Maybe several.
Biden is the pathological liar - pretty much every time he speaks. Trump`s problem, like the previous poster said, is his narcissism. But as a whole his economic policies, border policies were very good, unlike what undoing his policies have done. Oh yes, and foreign policies - funny how he was right about them and there were no wars.
Sad to say that in this Country the best those two parties can come up with is Biden and Trump. Nation needs some new leadership the mainstream can you know kinda trust and be proud that that person is your President.
I am a member of the GOP. I agree that Trump is not electable. We need the policies but not the man. If the GOP does not stand up to him and tell him not to run on the GOP ticket, as well as not to turn around and run as an independent, then we are stuck with 4 years of the same crappy economic and immigration polices we are stuck in now. Unfortunately, people will again vote against the man, as opposed to voting for the polices that will keep this county afloat and regain our status as the World Power we are supposed to be. Because let's be honest...people didn't vote "for" Biden, but voted against Trump in 2020. Bugs Bunny would have won against Trump last time. If the GOP is going to use Biden's age against him, then we need to look in the mirror too. The fact is we need the younger, "new" blood to take control of the party to move the Party and this Nation forward.
Also, BOTH sides need to remember what compromise actually means, and that it's not a bad thing to work across the aisle. I miss those days when crap actually got done for the betterment of the Nation.
He may have been until Joe took over. Now he’s unseated the Fl contingent.
You know what’s scarier than Biden…the people who believe the economy is booming, illegal immigration is under control, Joe never played golf with Hunter’s business partners, Joe is just a sweet old man, Joe is running things, and the Chinese balloon bouncing across the nation like Jot was a poor weather balloon.
What worries you more, a millionaire who wins office, or a so called working man who becomes a millionaire while in public office?
Since this thread is already off the rails....eff trump. We have Biden because we had trump. We had trump because we had hillary.
Fox news is finally getting what they deserve and hopefully trump is next.
At least Biden is standing up to putin and not kissing the azz of a war criminal like maga.
It is not the age that matters, it is their mental and physical ability or l;ack thereof
LULZ. Biden is giving Putin EXACTLY what he wanted....to go sell oil in currencies other than US$. Biden can't stand up to anyone b/c of his family's personal dealings with foreign adversaries....which is very ironic given that's how they tried to take down Trump. I see some are still taking the bait.
By taking US oil off the market he has increased demand for Russian oil, while at the same time allowing Russia to sell oil in whatever currency the buyer chooses. I'm sure Putin is absolutely HATING the Biden presidency......
Correction - Biden is giving Putin exactly what he paid him for!
Y'all might as well prepare for a second term with that senile despot, because Trump isn't beating him. There are too many dullards and vermin in the electorate for that to happen. And if Trump were to somehow lose the GOP nomination, you know he will try to run third party. If he can't get on state ballots he will simply encourage his most diehard supporters to not vote for the GOP candidate, because he is, first and foremost, about Trump.
Amazing the hatred drawn by party lines. Sadly common sense has been vacated by many who just see Blue or Red. Doing the right thing for our Country should be the ONLY thing.
I miss the days where Congress would "argue" on the floor and then meet up for drinks after (which usually led to COMPROMISE on what they were arguing about earlier). You know...act like adults and understand that you can disagree with each other and not hate each other. They were still friends.
Do that today, and you're going to be vilified by your Party. You can't even be friends. It's sad.
Even more sad is that it is the same now in society, and even in families.

Right or wrong, what happened today is only one of several developments that are going to mitigate against his getting the nomination.
All it does it steer him toward running as an Independent, thereby splitting the GOP vote, and leading to 4 more years of what we're stuck in now.
Hopefully, and it's a scant hope, he will act in the best interests of what used to be called Middle America.

Might want to do some fact checking.
US oil output is setting records as a result of the war.
The Russia-Ukraine war remapped the world's energy supplies, putting the U.S. at the top for years to come
Russia's invasion of the Ukraine a year ago has shifted global energy supply chains and put the U.S. clearly at the top of the world's energy-exporting nations.

Better hope he gets prohibited from running. Chris Christie is a guy I have an interest in.
You are so confused. Biden ain’t standing up to anybody. Even your news source CNN isn’t pushing the Trump Russia hoax anymore. As bad as you want it to be true, it’s not.
I hope RD is our next President.
RD? They woke guy that thinks he can take on Disney? He has worse approval ratings that brandon.
And you think I'm confused?
Prosecute him.....Pence as well. None of them are above the law.
Agree. Clearly, Biden has been a criminal for a long time with plenty of documents now exposing his crimes.
Bingo. Life is about binary choices. It’s one or the other. There is no such thing as a perfect candidate. We were told a Trump was a Russian agent. 5 years of investigations with the full power of the US intelligence apparatus couldn’t find it. We were told he would get us into a nuclear war. His 4 years were the most peaceful we’ve seen in decades. We were told his tariffs on China would cripple us and beer would be too expensive bc the $.08 of aluminum was going to increase 30%. The media and the establishment tried to scare us. And none of it was true. I don’t like him as a person. I don’t like his tact. He’s out of control at times. But when you think about, EVERYTHING they warned us about Trump is actually what we’re getting from Biden. Put the damn dem/repub aside. We’re all getting screwed, red and blue.
Not really what I was saying. Sorry I didn’t explain it properly. I’m taking about barrels traded on the US$. The BRICS countries banding together to create their basket of currencies to support Russian oil exports are going to be devastating to the US$ as it is today. Russian oil exports at back to pre war levels. Putin has wanted this for a long time. Biden was warned not to do the sanctions by policy experts. He knew this would happen. Trump knew it would happen, which is why he didn’t do it. This is a currency war that Putin is waging while we’re all focused on Ukraine. That’s what I’m talking about, and it’s all brought to you by Biden’s sanctions.Might want to do some fact checking.

The Old World Order For Crude Oil Is Disappearing
Russia announced Tuesday that it has been able to redirect all crude exports impacted by Western sanctions. There is no question that Russia's status as a member of the BRICS alliance played a major role in creating that outcome.

That's a lot of speculation and the author is quoting a Russian official as his source? At what price are they selling? And this is going to devastate the US$? While the US is selling more crude that ever?Not really what I was saying. Sorry I didn’t explain it properly. I’m taking about barrels traded on the US$.

As far as sanctions, you need to look at Europe. They are the ones that are working to get off Russian gas/oil. Russia can thank putin for trying to blackmail Europe into not applying sanctions. Russia are the ones who threatened Europe by cutting off their gas & they are the ones who sabotoge their own pilelines. Has little to do with trump or biden. It's the survival of Europe and the reality of what Russia is capable of. Even Germany is coming to grips with it.
Dude...really? What about all those BLM incidents? 144 people were killed in mass shootings in '17!
Wow....that's delusional.
