[See NewsBusters for more.] Journalists have done their best to prop up Joe Biden and the Democratic chances in 2022. But there is a sense that the liberal network newscasts are willing to throw the Democrat overboard when it comes to 2024. CBS on Thursday speculated on when is “too old to serve” for politicians. Among the individuals singled out was Biden. The network even featured a famous clip of the President verbally stumbling and looking confused. Co-host Tony Dokoupil warned, “President Biden, already the oldest sitting president, is set to become the first president to turn 80 in office.” He continued, “President Biden has faced some of the same criticism from his political opponents.”
What’s even more shocking about this story is that Dokoupil played a famous clip of Biden stumbling. It’s famous despite the network attempts to bury it. In 2020, the then-presidential candidate mangled over an attempt to quote from the Declaration: “We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”
