    This is ableism. Biden doesn’t mumble because of his age, but because he’s had issues with stuttering since he was young. To a few kids he’s even been an inspiring image for the fact he rehearses his speeches so well he rises above the impromptu stutters.

      No.

      I already know of this.

      It is what he says through the mumbling that is concerning.

      I do not condone ablism.

        Biden is ancient and incomprehensible in half of his public appearances.

        That’s the opposite of what you said. Are you concerned about what you can understand, or what you can’t?

          A speech impediment does not excuse the murder of Palestinian civilians.
