Hillary Clinton dismisses Biden’s age, urges voters to back him for the sake of democracy

Hillary Clinton: Democracy Needs to be Saved from Trump

Former⁤ Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has urged voters to acknowledge ⁣that President Joe Biden is old, but emphasized the importance of saving democracy from former President Donald Trump.

During an interview on ‌the Mornings with Zerlina radio show on SiriusXM,‍ Clinton ⁢highlighted that Trump, who is also​ old at 77, poses a greater danger to the future of the country. In‌ contrast, Biden, at 81, has proven to be effective and does not threaten democracy.

“So we have ‍a contest between‌ one candidate who’s old but who’s done an​ effective job and ‍doesn’t threaten our democracy. And we⁤ have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy.”

Clinton emphasized the need for⁣ voters to choose between the two older candidates and‍ work towards safeguarding democracy. She stressed that regardless of ​political beliefs, the preservation of freedom, the rule of law, and the protection of ⁣fundamental rights should be a shared ⁢goal.

“Because no⁢ matter where you stand ⁢on the political spectrum, ⁢you want⁣ to maintain freedom and the rule of law and protection for people’s fundamental rights, or at least I used to think so.”

These remarks come ahead of Super Tuesday, the most significant voting ⁣day of the year,​ where voters in 16 states and one territory will cast their ballots. They also​ follow a recent New York Times/Siena College poll revealing⁤ that 61% of Biden’s 2020 supporters now believe he is “just too old to be an effective president.”

While Clinton did not comment on Biden’s mental state, she expressed concern about Trump’s memory problems, particularly his confusion regarding running ⁤against former ⁣President‌ Barack Obama.

“Listen to Donald Trump, ‌who is, like, ranting, making no sense, can’t even remember who he is running against. He constantly talks about Barack Obama being his opponent. Last I checked, that wasn’t what ⁣was happening. So, if ⁣you’re worried about a person not necessarily knowing what’s going on, I’d worry a lot more‌ about Donald Trump.”

Trump has ⁢been known to mix up the two ⁢men in his speeches and has even hinted that Biden is not truly running the country but is merely a⁣ means to give Obama a third term.

‍What ‍dangers ⁤does ⁣Hillary Clinton believe that Trump‍ poses to democracy and ​the importance of ​preserving it?

Ave to be really clear that as old as Joe Biden is, as much‌ as people say, ‘Oh, well, you know, he’s not as energetic as‌ he used to ⁢be,’ he understands this moment, and we need his ⁣steadiness and his ​experience,” Clinton ⁤said. ​“We need to shore up democracy. We need to make sure that we save it from the clutches of⁢ Trumpism.”

Clinton further emphasized that the danger Trump poses to democracy cannot be underestimated. Throughout his presidency, Trump showed disregard for democratic norms and institutions, repeatedly engaging⁢ in divisive rhetoric, attacking the media, ⁢and‍ undermining‍ the credibility of the electoral process. ​His ‍refusal to accept the results ⁣of the 2020 election and his baseless claims of widespread​ voter fraud further eroded trust in the democratic system.

As a former ⁣Secretary of State, Clinton has seen firsthand the ‌importance of democracy in maintaining peace ⁢and stability⁣ both domestically and internationally. She stressed that the United States cannot afford‍ to have another⁢ leader ⁣like Trump, who prioritizes ⁢personal gain over the well-being of ⁤the country and its citizens. The ⁣consequences of such leadership‍ can ​be dire, as⁢ evidenced by the erosion ⁢of democratic values and the ⁣rise of authoritarianism in ‍countries across‌ the globe.

However,⁤ Clinton also acknowledged the challenges ⁣that Biden faces​ as an older president. She recognized that age can raise⁣ concerns about physical and mental ⁢health, but emphasized⁢ that Biden has proven himself capable and has surrounded himself ​with a strong team⁢ of advisors. ⁤She urged voters to look‌ beyond age⁢ and focus ⁣on the issues that‍ matter ‍most to them – the preservation⁣ of democracy⁢ and the restoration of trust in government.

Clinton’s⁣ comments reflect a growing sentiment among Democrats that the fight for democracy is far from⁣ over. Although Trump is no longer in office, his ‌influence‌ and the threat of Trumpism ​remain. It is crucial for the American people to remain vigilant and actively work towards⁢ safeguarding democratic principles.

Clinton’s message serves as a reminder that democracy is not guaranteed and should never be taken for granted. It requires⁢ constant effort and engagement from all citizens. By recognizing‍ the dangers of Trumpism and supporting leaders who prioritize democracy, the American people can work towards a future where democratic norms and institutions are strengthened and protected.

Ultimately, Clinton’s call to save democracy from Trump serves as a rallying cry for all citizens ​who value ⁣the principles of freedom, equality, and justice. ⁢It ‍is a reminder ⁣that the fight for democracy is ⁤ongoing ‌and⁤ that it is ⁣the responsibility ​of each individual to play their part in ‌protecting it.

The ‍2022 midterm elections ⁢will be a ‌crucial test for ‍democracy ‍in the United States. It is an opportunity for voters ⁤to express their support for leaders who will defend democratic values and ‌reject the ⁢destructive rhetoric of Trumpism. By exercising ⁢their right to vote and actively participating in the democratic process, ‌the American people can work towards a ⁢future where democracy thrives and Trumpism is relegated to the past.

As Hillary Clinton’s call to action resonates with citizens ⁢across the⁢ country, it is up to the ⁢American people to ⁢heed her words and save ‌democracy ⁤from the clutches of Trump.
