In 3 days of #diplomacy in #Asia, President #Biden rallied world leaders to help #finance #poor nations, fortified the #coalition backing #Ukraine & struck a deal w/ #Vietnam to counter Chinese aggression.
But even before he left Vietnam on Sun night, the president was hammered w/a very different #narrative.
By Mon morning, as the 80-year-old president was flying home on Air Force One, #conservative #media outlets had seized on his end-of-trip news conference as the latest evidence that he is too old to perform on the world stage.
It is a pattern that infuriates the #WhiteHouse, where #Biden’s top aides believe that stories about the president’s age & health are stoked by his enemies in an effort to undermine his accomplishments.…
To #Biden’s advisers, the political damage is coming not from legitimate questions about the president’s health or stamina, but from what one adviser once described as fake & distorted internet posts.
…#Trump routinely delivered rambling, often nonsensical speeches & news conferences. He ranted about eagles killed by windmills & told fake stories about the U.S. military running out of ammunition. Often, Trump’s anger-filled diatribes made little sense.
I'll be ecstatic if I'm able to do 1/2 of what Biden does when I'm 80.
I'm in pretty good shape for 66+, but definitely suffering for the pounding on my upper body and lower back from my years of competition (yeah, that's me spinning in the air back in college...) and subsequent weight lifting, martial arts, jumping rope, etc.
