MagicFox:
The more time goes on, the more I think Biden could have nipped this ageist line of attack in the bud by accepting Trump’s challenge of a round of golf by responding something like:
“I would love to play a round of golf with Donald, right after we finish a 10 mile bike ride together. 10 mile bike ride, immediately followed by 18 holes of golf. No carts, no caddies. Pick the time and place, Donny. We’ll televise it live.”
Then regularly bring it up. At press conferences, in his intro statement at the debates. Whenever a reporter implies he’s too old.
Because we all know Little Indicted Donny would never accept the challenge. If the bike ride didn’t kill him, lugging his own clubs around would.
While it wouldn’t satisfy the “too old” crowd, it would give Biden something easy to deflect to: “If I’m old and frail, why hasn’t Drumpf accepted my offer?”
I know it’s just fan-fiction, but sometimes the best defense is a good offense.
To me that’s beneath the dignity of the office and feels too much like that Bojack Horseman episode where the governorship of California gets determined by a ski race, but to each their own.
