South Carolina Democrat nominee for governor, former U.S. Rep. Joe Cunningham, suggested Joe Biden not seek another term in 2024, citing Biden’s age.
The Hill reports:
During an interview on CNN’s “New Day,” Cunningham was asked if he believed Biden, who is 79, was too old to run for reelection.
“Yeah, I think we need to have a new generation of leadership emerge. And this isn’t, you know, as the video said, judges in South Carolina have to retire at age 72. Democrats have a very deep bench, and it’s time to allow a new generation to emerge and new talent,” Cunningham replied, referring to a campaign ad released on Wednesday calling for age limits.
“I think we need to have a new vision, new leadership. And this isn’t about, personal about Biden, but he’d be 82 [by the] time of the next election. If he served out a second term, he would be 86 years old. I’m not sure if any of us know any 86-year-olds who should be running the entire country,” the former congressman added later.
CNN showed a tweet from 2018 in which Cunningham touted then-Vice President Biden’s endorsement in his congressional race, an election he later won, flipping a seat that had been red for decades.
Age limits on politicians is a new idea to a very old problem. We need to end the geriatric oligarchy that has held us back for far too long. Watch and share this video and help us bring South Carolina out of the past and into the future. pic.twitter.com/UQbN98Qr5L

Also Thursday, USA Today ran a column saying Biden must step aside for the “good of our nation:”
AGE? WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF HIS BS,The Biden and Kerry war on energy makes no sense unless you are benefiting from foriegn sources to gain financially right? Not their job to shut down American companies,or threaten American companies,or threaten American owners of companies or their CEO’s, or their employees not their job description, their abuse of power and office could be considered criminal or treasonous. US President Biden has been criticized as “morally bankrupt” and “weak” in regard to his energy policy after it was revealed he is planning to visit Saudi Arabia to discuss the global oil crisis.This is what the world thinks of biden, most Americans see no need to disagree with that statement that his war on the American energy industry is OK paid for by non American interest How many lies and democrat BS does it take too start impeachment hearings? Hunter Biden brags about his influence over Joe Biden, impeach every asshole who broke his oath to our Country to protect and serve, replace them with those who love our country and are not looking to line their own pockets.Total corruption? who is waving all import penalties and restrictions against China? What did America receive for these decision? illegal drugs from China coming in at an all time high, causing more then 100,000 deaths so far and still climbing, what have the bidens received for this decision ?The disgraced biden clan,a story of personal family greed, disloyalty to America, lies with no honor, false oaths taken, complete hatred of American ways, our American ideals, with direction towards the destruction of America, with their American last policy. How can so much money be taken from Americas adversaries without our country’s positions being compromised or influenced by foreign dirty money? Time for full investigations, the guilty be put on trail, for any disloyalty taken, money falsely taken, lying to Congress, have them return too tax payers’ money received under illegal’s methods or dishonest ways. Those who have violated our country’s laws must be prosecuted, put in jail and made to return all money taken in from their dishonesty. Vote them out of office and keep them out, they are driven by personal greed.
Charles A Wilkens for President!!!
Charles I agree with you %150 and this should have happened long with Commie KERRY. In my opinion we do not have enough people with GUTS to get RID of them. “GOD BLESS AMERICA AGAIN”
“Sandy ” Cortez is young but just as stupid as Biden. It’s not age, it’s socialist derangement!
This is all scripted.
It was planned that after Biden served two years and a day, that Kamala Harris would take the Presidency via the 25th Amendment. At the time of her being chosen as VP, the Democrat Party had little idea of how much of an empty vessel she was, or should I say, is. Perhaps if she does take over the Oval Office they may attempt to install Hillary as VP, and 25th Amendment her.
It is certainly not out of the question.
Sadly for us all you just might be correct.
Well and good, but no mention of Befuddled Biden’s mental state. That’s even more important than his age.
