Because you now did it to yourself.

    Did you watch the first debate where Biden could hardly speak a sentence? They were right about Biden’s age. And they knew that Trump voters would never listen to them so what’s the point of going after him over and over?

    At the end of the day the blame falls mostly on the campaign and on the party and they failed. They have to do better than this or they’ll fail again.

      Biden is two years older than Trump. Trump is 20 years older than Harris. You are completely sidestepping the point made by the person you’re replying to.

        I didn’t sidestep. first of all “the media” did bring up trumps age I remember seeing it talked about. Also Biden’s age was a problem. Blaming this loss on the media is like blaming the refs when you lose a game. Yeah they might’ve been bad refs but it’s your job to win the game regardless. The way the media treats trump is not new and if the Dems didn’t take that into account that was their mistake

          Closer to blaming the commentator. Nevertheless, I still like this analogy.
