Biden became President, right? So…

This week only if you are a Republican/magat.

Actually, even before Biden dropped out, only the Republican candidate sounded like he belonged in the dementia unit. Biden was slow and fumbled, but he’d always had a speech impediment. But he made very good decisions and actually hired competent people.

I’m guessing this strip has a lead time longer than a week…

Well one of the candidates still has that issue.

I question the mental competence of anyone who would want to be President

These days, it might be a useful condition for the voters too.

But one party sees the public perception of senility (not the reality) as a reason to switch candidates, while the other celebrates the effects of subterranean IQ reduced even further by tertiary syphilis.

Ba-da-BOOM!

the economist provided graphic proof of this last week in an article entitled american politicians are the oldest in the rich world. lifetime incumbency = ridiculously aged lawmakers. not that new blood would make any difference in the results… ☺

I stopped following this strip for awhile, because I don’t like politics in what is supposed humors comic strips, but the granddaughter/grandfather relationship makes me want to try again.
