Old Joe Biden is 80 now, and even after the Democrats’ triumphant (albeit highly suspicious) showing in the midterms, some on the Left still believe that the foggy-minded old liar is well past his sell-by date. The putative president himself has not made any official announcement that he is running again, but last week, at a state dinner with the callow, wet-behind-the-ears 44-year-old French President Emmanuel Macron, Biden joined in a toast to a 2024 run. Nevertheless, the 2024 campaign is still a long way off, and if the alleged president is ultimately judged to be too old to continue pretending to be our nation’s chief executive, another prominent Democrat is strongly considering stepping in. Yes, I’m talking about Bernie Sanders.
Of course, Bernie is actually older than Joe, although the rumors that he was Socialist candidate Eugene V. Debs’ campaign manager in the 1920 presidential election are false. Sanders will be 83 when Election Month 2024 rolls around, but he has one clear advantage over Biden right away: while Joe gives us more or less daily indications of his advancing dementia, Sanders appears to be of completely sound mind. Imagine that! A Democrat candidate of sound mind! But of course, the fact that Sanders is apparently still all there upstairs is no indication that the thoughts he still has are worth anything.
Sanders adviser Faiz Shakir told CBS News that Bernie was seriously considering throwing his vintage Bogart-era fedora into the ring. “I assume that he would give it a hard look,” Shakir said, assuming that Sanders still has good enough eyesight to accomplish such a feat. “I don’t want to make the judgment for him. Obviously, it would be his choice to make. But I assume that he would want to reevaluate it.”

A tribune of the people needs a place to rest!
America’s overbearing Yenta needs to shut and go away to one of his lakeside retreats, which he earned as the country’s most vocal socialist.
Bernie…of sound mind??? Are you kidding me?
LOL!
Yeah, what a contradiction.
Completely sound of mind? Are you serious?
Wonder what his purchase price for dropping out will be the year.
Go Bernie go!
I think Bernie is a terrible hypocrite, a Progressive who never worked, sucking off of taxpayers, owns 4 homes, drives a Audii S8, etc.
But at least he isn’t demented like Biden.
He needs another mansion
Audi R8 Supercar. Not an S.
2nd video down shows behind the scenes of the curmudgeon....
The only way Sanders runs in 2024 is if Biden doesn’t.
Any democrat who challenges Biden in a primary can kiss a national political future goodbye.
The democrats have a lot of policy and cultural positions that are terrible, but they stick together like glue.
Its the opposite with the perfidious Republicans, if Trump was President right now & in the condition of Biden & seeking a 2nd term.
The vultures would be circling & plotting his demise, instead of being a ‘band of brothers.’
The reporter writes ‘refreshingly honest with each other’.
Man are these people stupid. The guys a lifelong snake oil salesman.
