    Nancy Pelosi is 84. No wonder she won’t say he’s too old.

    *But always remember to check who’s OP.

      It’s not about being too old per se, it’s about being too unhealthy. A person can be 80 and still mentally fit, just like a person could be 60 and totally frazzled.

      The only reason age comes up is because there’s a correlation between age and cognitive decline.

        Don’t listen to these people who call you some sort of Russian bot. They want to shut their eyes and pretend like nothing is wrong, while we are on the verge of an authoritarian Trump presidency.

        Edit: for the record, if Joe Biden is the nominee, you still gotta vote for him. I’m not saying otherwise

    She didn’t get where she is by holding principled positions or committing to… well… anything really.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    WASHINGTON — Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., held back Wednesday from a full-throated endorsement of President Joe Biden staying in the 2024 race, saying that it’s up to him whether to run but warned the clock is ticking.

    We’re all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short," Pelosi said in an interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” when asked if Biden had her support to be the head of the Democratic ticket.

    Pelosi’s remarks are highly notable as she remains a prominent member of the Democratic caucus, as speaker emerita, whose rank and file still look to her for guidance.

    The former speaker suggested that she’s told her Democratic colleagues to “hold off” on stating their opinions publicly about Biden staying in the race.

    Sen. Michael Bennet of Colorado on Tuesday became the first Senate Democrat to publicly say that he doesn’t think Biden can beat Trump.

    Biden and the White House have dismissed the idea that he has any major health conditions that affected him that night and the president has emphatically said he’s staying in the race.
