It’s a sign of serious trouble for President Joe Biden when even leftist magazines like the New Yorker are mocking the ancient Democrat and his fellow geriatric politicians, and the harpies on “The View” melted down over a cover picture that portrayed him and Nancy Pelosi in an unflattering light.
With a flood of recent polls showing that voters see Biden as being too old for a second term making it no longer possible to ignore the elephant in the living room, the White House and its media mouthpieces are in a state of panic and the ladies at the table threw a temper tantrum on Tuesday’s edition of the IQ-draining ABC daytime gabfest.
Whoopi Goldberg kicked off the day’s crying jag by whining that the magazine poked fun at the left-wing pols and Joy Behar took particular offense that the corrupt California crone was depicted shuffling around with a walker next to Biden, GOP Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, and former President Donald J. Trump who at 77-years- old is a spring chicken compared to the other codgers.

“So, there’s more chatter in the media about candidates’ mentality and physical decline. Axios is reporting that Biden’s team is concerned he might fall again. The New Yorker cover has Biden and other leaders using walkers and when it comes to you-know-who there doesn’t seem to be any concern about his decline,” she said, referring to a scoop that Team Biden is on a “mission” to keep the stumbling leader upright.
“I hate that cover,” griped Behar who, like Biden and Pelosi, is also a member of the 80-year club. “Why do they have to put Nancy Pelosi in there?! Nancy Pelosi – If you watch her interviews she’s as sharp as a tack as they say. She makes sense and keeps getting reelected by 80 percent of the constituency.”

“Because it goes with the mythology that these folks are too old to be doing what they’re doing. Which is a bit insulting to people who are over 70 who are – you know – who are actually doing their jobs and able to do it. And I keep asking aside from — well, you’ve fallen. I’ve fallen,” Goldberg complained. “I feel like we’re in a cartoon when we talk about stuff like this. I understand people are concerned that people are getting older. But it’s like stop with the beating it in the head.”
“I feel like I’m getting hit over the head with it and it’s pissing me off because I’m getting older and failing for lots of different reasons. Things are happening and I’m not near these — well, maybe I am. Nearer to a lot of these ages and I understand the point. What’s the solution? Is Biden not doing his job?” Goldberg asked.
Later in the segment, Behar, who bleeds Democrat blue and had expressed the opinion that even a “drooling’ Biden is preferable to a Republican in the White House, further lowered her standards by declaring that even a dead Biden is better than Trump.

“The question is this: Let’s say Joe Biden – God forbid – dies in office, isn’t that still okay for the country? The country will survive it but if Trump wins, the country will not survive it. That’s a fact,” she proclaimed.
