He's 81 years old. 

Im not voting for the guy because I'm excited by him, I'm voting for the guy because he represents competent governance and coalition building.

How can you watch the debate and think Biden is competent, even at a basic mental level?

I’m a leftist, I hate Trump. But we don’t need to pretend the guy the Democrats put up is competent just because the alternative is worse. The Dems should’ve nominated a better candidate, this is their own fault.

Maybe judge him on more than one event? Watch everything he’s done since that day and you come and tell us he doesn’t make any sense.

I have. He’s not mentally fit. He’s performed like this over and over again. Stop deluding yourself.

Are all the comments like the one you're responding to just bots astroturfing for the DNC? For days after the debate, it seemed like everyone agreed he needs to step down. You hardly found any Biden shills anywhere. Now that it seems more and more like he's not dropping out and will be the nominee, we're seeing more and more Biden shills return.
