Rep. Waters defends Biden at event celebrating Black women

NEW ORLEANS — Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) on Saturday delivered a strong defense of President Biden, pushing back on critics who say he’s too old to be president.

“We are now at a point in time where people are talking about Biden as too old,” she said. “Hell, I’m older than Biden!”

Waters spoke on a panel at the Essence Festival of Culture here in New Orleans ahead of Vice President Harris’s appearance. As an audience of hundreds of Black women cheered, Waters challenged Black voters who may be wooed by Donald Trump’s pitch that he would be a better president for Black Americans.

“Trump has told you who he is. He is a no good deplorable, lying, despicable human being,” she said.

Waters also offered a pointed message to Democrats who have called on Biden to drop his reelection bid.

“I don’t care what anybody says — it ain’t going to be no other Democratic candidate,” Waters said. “It’s going to be Biden.”

Well, Maxine, you're not fit to be President either.

This is why the media needs to stop saying “too old”. They are tip-toeing around it by calling it “age issue”. They need to say “cognitively impaired”.

But yet he ignored a black woman who thought he was great, went to the white woman who was right next to her.

Why wasn’t Biden there? Was he not invited? I mean, he said he was a black woman...

classic line from the movie “The Jerk” (1979). In the film, Steve Martin’s character, Navin R. Johnson, humorously declares, “I was born a poor black child.”

Very true. Biden has brain circuit pathology. Others at his age do not. He had a brain hemorrhage in his late 40’s and currently has small vessel disease in his brain. This is why his cognition has declined and it will accelerate. His issues are much worse now than 3 years ago.

Lady - you are no lady - but I digress - no one cares about Biden’s age - it’s his cognitive skills that are in question but you wouldn’t know anything about that as yours have been lacking for a number of years! Probably for your entire career in politics!!!!
