Hillary Clinton says to move on from Biden's age: 'Let's go ahead and accept the reality' that he's old

Hillary Clinton says people need to "accept the reality" that President Biden is old, move on and focus on beating Donald Trump.

The former Secretary of State appeared on the "Mornings with Zerlina" radio show on SiriusXM Tuesday where she discussed what she saw as the authoritarian threat of Trump winning the 2024 presidential election. By contrast, she advised people to acknowledge Biden’s age and move on to protect democracy.

"Somebody the other day said to me… 'Well, but, you know, Joe Biden's old.' I said, 'You know what, Joe Biden is old. Let's go ahead and accept the reality. Joe Biden is old.' So we have a contest between one candidate who's old, but who's done an effective job and doesn't threaten our democracy. And we have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy," Clinton said.

Hillary still hasn’t accepted the reality that she lost the 2016 election. Or that she’s a sleazy, underhanded, unethical, money-grubbing, partisan zealot old hag.

“Old” does not begin to describe the Biden situation:

This is five minutes of Biden totally lost, confused, baffled, disoriented, muddled.

It is not just “old”.

She’s purposely obscuring the fact that the issue isn’t that he is old (a lot of people older than Biden, still have sharp minds) but that he is old AND demented and possibly slipping into senility.

She is an old vodka-addled 76-1/2-year-old babbling biatch.

Yo Clintoon. I prefer you move on from your wet dream that someday you are going to be POTUS. Ain’t gonna happen. You need to get yourself a hobby. Maybe an Uber POTUS fast food delivery driver or something along those lines.

"Somebody the other day said to me… 'Well, but, you know, Joe Biden's old.' I said, 'You know what, Joe Biden is old. Let's go ahead and accept the reality. Joe Biden is old.' So we have a contest between one candidate who's old, but who's done an effective job and doesn't threaten our democracy. And we have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy," Clinton said.

She's saying two things here...

First, if Mister Biden's age is not a factor, then her age (76) is not either, and

Second, gratuitous praise for the Dem and focused attack on the DOPer. She's on board, and still pines to be considered for the oval office.

One suspects that Hopeful Hillary has zero chance of the consideration for the Dem ticket. She has more baggage than O'Hare, but the most critical item is the Epstein-Maxwell-Clintons, ahem, social interaction history. Low info voters don't know much about whitewater, FBI files, bimbo eruptions, travelgate, Benghazi, servergate, the Clinton Foundation and many, many other serious questions. Low info voters just might have interesting questions and the oppo ads just write themselves.

“democracy”

WIKI

From 1912 to 1914 the female enfranchisement movement, the suffragettes, orchestrated a bombing and arson campaign which was described by the suffragettes themselves as terrorism. Emmeline Pankhurst said the suffragettes commited these acts to “terrorise the British public” and the Women’s Social and Political Union reported their own acts as a “Reign of terror”. The campaign included burning down the houses of members of the cabinet, an axe being thrown at the Prime minister, attempted bombings of train stations including with nail bombs, and attempts to flood towns by attacking water courses. Bearman asserts that there were at least 337 arson or bombing attempts and that the cost of the campaign in 2021 money amounted to 140-240 million pounds. 1300 people had been arrested and imprisoned by the end of the campaign.

The Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU) was a women-only political movement and leading militant organisation campaigning for women’s suffrage in the United Kingdom founded in 1903. Known from 1906 as the suffragettes, its membership and policies were tightly controlled by Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughters Christabel and Sylvia. Sylvia was eventually expelled.

The WSPU membership became known for civil disobedience and direct action. Emmeline Pankhurst described them as engaging in a “reign of terror”. Group members heckled politicians, held demonstrations and marches, broke the law to force arrests, broke windows in prominent buildings, set fire to or introduced chemicals into postboxes thus injuring several postal workers, and committed a series of arsons that killed at least five people and injured at least 24. When imprisoned, the group’s members engaged in hunger strikes and were subject to force-feeding. Emmeline Pankhurst said the group’s goal was “to make England and every department of English life insecure and unsafe”.

On 13 October 1908, Emmeline Pankhurst together with Christabel Pankhurst and Flora Drummond organised a rush on the House of Commons. 60,000 people gathered in Parliament Square and attempts were made by suffragettes to break through the 5000 strong police cordon. Thirty-seven arrests were made, ten people were taken to hospital. On 29 June 1909, WSPU activists Ada Wright and Sarah Carwin were arrested for breaking government windows. They were sentenced to a month in prison. After breaking every window in their cells, in a protest they went on a hunger strike, following the pioneering strike of Marion Wallace Dunlop. They were released after six days.

The WSPU responded by organising a new and broader campaign of direct action. Once this got underway with the wholesale smashing of shop windows, the government ordered arrests of the leadership. Although they had disagreed with strategy, Frederick and Emmeline Pethwick-Lawrence, were sentenced to nine months imprisonment for conspiracy and successfully sued for the cost of the property damage.

Some WSPU militants, however, were prepared to go beyond outrages against property. On 18 July 1912, in Dublin Mary Leigh threw a hatchet that narrowly missed the head of the visiting prime minister H. H. Asquith. On 29 January 1913, several letter bombs were sent to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, David Lloyd George, and the prime minister Asquith, but they all exploded in post offices, post boxes or in mailbags while in transit across the country. Between February and March 1913, railway signal wires were purposely cut on lines across the country endangering train journeys.

On 19 February 1913, as part of a wider suffragette bombing and arson campaign, a bomb was set off in Pinfold Manor, the country home of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lloyd George, which brought down ceilings and cracked walls. On the evening of the incident Emmeline Pankhurst claimed responsibility, announcing at a public meeting in Cardiff, we have “blown up the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s house”. Pankhurst was willing to be arrested for the incident saying “I have advised, I have incited, I have conspired”; and that if she was arrested for the incident she would prove that the “punishment unjustly imposed upon women who have no voice in making the laws cannot be carried out”. On 3 April Pankhurst was sentenced to three years’ penal servitude for procuring and inciting women to commit “malicious injuries to property”. The Temporary Discharge for Ill Health Bill was rushed through Parliament to ensure that Pankhurst, who had immediately gone on hunger strike, did not die in prison.

In response to the bomb Lloyd George wrote an article in Nash’s Magazine, entitled “Votes for Women and Organised Lunacy” where he argued that the “main obstacle to women getting the vote is militancy”. It had alienated those who would have supported them. The only way for women to get the vote is a new movement “absolutely divorced from stones and bombs and torches”.

On the evening of 9 March 1914 in Glasgow, about 40 militant suffragettes, including members of the Bodyguard team, brawled with several squads of police constables who were attempting to re-arrest Emmeline Pankhurst during a pro-suffrage rally at St. Andrew’s Hall. The following day, suffragette Mary Richardson (known as one of the most militant activists, also called “Slasher” Richardson) walked into the National Gallery in London and attacked Diego Velázquez’s painting, Rokeby Venus with a meat cleaver. Her action stimulated a wave of attacks on artworks that would continue for five months. In June, militants had placed a bomb beneath the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey.
