He literally froze up when he got caught in the Christan Nationalist logical trap.
Literally got stuck in the loop when his lips said, "I'm sure Jesus loves them, but everybody else..."
The topic they were discussing was Trump's crackdown on sanctuary cities.
"I know better than Jesus and truth is a popularity contest."
And then these decrepit assholes wonder why we want mandatory retirement ages.
JOE BIDEN is OLD! THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
licks lips like lizard
Edit:
Lizard brain kicked in when the rest of it checked out.
They cut the video right before he started blinking horizontally.
That's insane to me that the Fox News host tried to pretend it was an issue with the mic. It's so clear the mic was working fine, what the fuck. This is the kind of obvious propaganda that I'd expect from North Korea
Fox News is way better and more sophisticated as a propaganda machine than whatever NK has.
It's one thing to brain wash people that have no access to education or outside sources it's a completely different level to do it in a western country.
remain in office for far longer than they should, usually out of pride and denial.
These cunts keep getting elected.
I hate this guy so fucking much
running should only be allowed at an age less than that of retirement, and at federal minimum wage. want to fix issues for working class and elderly? Fix them while you’re in office while you are becoming too old to run again. Get the fucking zombies out of DC.
the minnimum wage thing only means that the people that go up for the job are the corrupt bastards cutting favors and deals.
They should have term limits. Funny how they gave the president term limits but didn't vote on ones for themselves.
Fuck me, I wouldn't let this guy be a night manager of a place that closed in the evening.
I used to think an upper age limit for serving in government was agist and would mean a large chunk of the population without representation by their peers. I worried how poorly they might be treated without representation.
But I don’t think it could be any worse than they’re treated with how poorly their peers are doing currently.
The weird part is 73 isn't really all that old for some of these fuckers...
Kennedy isn't even in the top 20. Fully 1/5th of the Senate is older than 73(!)

I have yet to meet someone in their eighties that isn't mentally slipping. I have certainly never met someone in their 90's that wasn't a shadow of their former self.
Term limits would be a great starting point.
I've known people in that age that are mentally intact. There's been a few celebrities that seem intact even into their 90s like Dick Van Dyke or Betty White. There was a guy at worked I only communicated with by text and assumed he was my age as we worked on an issue. Turned out he was 84. It was announced that he was leaving and I assumed he was going to retire, but no, he got a job elsewhere for a raise....
Certainly that video featured a man far more deteriorated than most anyone I've known in their 70s.
Problem is mostly the voters voting for a letter (R or D) and frequently not even paying attention to the specific person.
I work with elderly people and have known quite a few that were sharp as ever well into their eighties, but when their minds go it happens extremely quickly. At the very least there needs to be mandatory cognitive tests to run and serve after a certain age.
How many Republican Senators does it take to change a light bulb? Zero. Trump says he changed it and they all clap in the dark.
The host knows this is a video right? We can see the senator’s lips not moving. It’s not an issue with the mic 🤣
Kennedy: I'm sure Jesus loves him, but ...
Jesus: STFU *hits mute*
Keep my name out your mouth. - Jesus
I can practically see the bluescreen on his face ...
Are all these old US politicians hanging around for the healthcare plan? Can’t be any other motivation to spend time in the cesspit.
And the bribe money. :)
Hahahahaha Jesus made a direct editorial on that comment of his. "That's about enough of that from you." Sizzle "Bwhah? Who's making toast?"
