The old nominees being watched by the young and the frail (and frailer)
Rahman Mohamed
Before the debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, watched and reported worldwide, both were told “Don’t forget your hearing aids”. So the other didn’t continually say “What?” In case one accidently or purposefully forget his Aids the mikes were turned off when it wasn’t his turn (the be nice and concentrate rule). What really happened?
Many say that Biden turned out worse, but both were mumbling and they forgot their lines in premier with no music in the background. Donald Trump said United States has a dangerous border, that Biden made it worse. Seems Trump forgot that Canada has the northern border and Americans went through the forests of the North when he was elected in 2016. And the Americans were welcomed. The American refugees were even taught how to say “Sorry” the Canadian way!
In regards to NATO, Trump said “Now we’re paying everyone’s bills.” Sure, Canada might be buying some weapons from USA, but it does pay for them. It doesn’t use credit (yet).
NORAD might be a forgotten secret but it is located on American and Canadian soil and the Canadian workers get free healthcare! They track and publicise Santa (a Canadian citizen) every year! Santa’s not against NORAD as long as Canada is paying for it. Strangely Canada does help. It’s even modernizing!
Biden repeated himself a couple of times, forgot his words. He has a cracking voice. But don’t forget, he is older, about 3 years older than Trump (yesterday Biden 81, Trump 78). Both had white hair (skipped the grey) with obvious combovers. Are they still allowed to drive on the roads and the green?
Both were continually repeating “He’s the worst president in history” as if anyone watching this didn’t know. The younger viewers watching the debate because there was nothing else on or the older one commanded it. And that’s those that aren’t in retirement homes. The ones in retirement homes were likely mandated by the care staff or couldn’t find anything else from their generation. The seniors running for president showed that can criticise the other (all seniors can); they just have to do it better.
Trump said he was there, running for President because Biden is bad. He said he doesn’t want to be there, that he wouldn’t be on the debate stage and running for President if Biden had been a great. Is that true or just ‘fake news’ (Surprisingly Trump didn’t say “fake news”, term he coined. Used ‘misinformation’ and ‘disinformation’, popularised by news and media!)?
Biden repeatedly referred to the Medicaid program. Will it cover Hearing Aids (what both desire and need)?
When asked if they will accept the results of the election Trump said if it’s fair. But what is fair? American citizens voting or American citizens in Canada and illegal immigrants to USA that climbed the Great Wall of USA that was never built voting?
But the highlight, both exchanging their handicap for golf. They likely just want to be on the Green with a caddy driving instead of taking jabs at each other in a debate.
