He Can't
but that creates fewer numbers in there.


So they (Republicans) want him to stay there

American politics is ridiculous - these people are elderly and should be long retired. It's not good for politics, and it's not good for their own health.

FWIW that looks a whole lot like an absence seizure but those are usually associated with life long epilepsy. TBQFH the diagnosis is just that he's an elderly man who should be relaxing in retirement.

And yes, Biden is quite clearly too old to be POTUS. People use this as a reason it should be Trump - trump seems fairly fit for his age, however, he's also in his late 70's and there's no way to predict what he'll be like in 2 - 5 years. Also just plain too old to be running.

They really need to stop this and have a sensible age cap... it doesn't even need to be THAT young. 65 for a first term and 70 for a second term seems generous and would place the POTUS age cut off (max age when leaving office) at around 75. Seems about right to me. 80 year olds in office is just a ludicrous situation, as we can quite clearly see.

I'm not expert but it really did look like a TIA or seizure.
