Sen. Bernie Sanders says "what we have to focus on is policy" after Biden age questions

Sen. Bernie Sanders, who has been a key ally of President Biden, tells "Face the Nation" that while the president is "old" and "he's not as articulate as he once was," "what we have to focus on is policy - whose policies have and will benefit the vast majority of the people in this country."

Policy always is more important than person.

[@Steve13lb12oz]

No it’s not. Policy is what the person says they will do. The quality of the person determines if they do it. Biden hasn’t done anything he said he would do. A complete failure

[@gogogaga7441]

Only if it's implemented. But I guess talk is all you want.

[@helenguinooban]

Biden knows how to do his job. He will win in 2024.

[@WScott-gd2mj]

Fine argument to put policy first, but it's contradicted by the blind adherence to a clearly fading Biden. Why not let the agenda be presented by someone more vigorous and quicker on his/her feet?

[@tysonunderwood4814]

If they're gonna keep talking about this then I want them to answer how insiders could remove Joe and Kamala, who won their primaries, while also protecting democracy?

[@leesawatson3184]

This is horrible, President Biden should step aside because he will not win against Trump now. So many people i know have all said that his stubborness is going to cost our country. WE ARE NOT GOING TO VOTE AT ALL IF BIDEN STAYS IN THE ELECTION. WE CANT VOTE FOR HIM AND WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR TRUMP. BIDEN IS BEING SELFISH. BIDEN PLEASE LET SOMEONE ELSE RUN AGAINST TRUMP . THINK OF THE COUNTRY BEFORE YOUR PRIDE!!!!!

[@thisismetoday]

I'm so tired of being gaslit by all these commentators, who are telling us we didn't see what we saw!! Shoving a choice down Democratic voters' throats is NOT democracy either!! I'm super progressive. I want another choice!

If Bernie's still with Biden, everyone should be. Bernie's the one guy I trust not to lie. Also, historian, Allan Lichtman has been successfully predicting who'll be the winner since 1984. His podcast - Thursdays at 9:00P.M.

[@goldyg8912]

Big money is involved in squeezing the life out of this country. Pharma, big Corporations, have a big stake in what is happening with food and other conditions after the Covid epidemic. Trying to cut Social Security, something that people paid into all their working lives. This not welfare, we paid into it. Look at policy people!!

have long loved Bernie since discovering him in my wanderings when he was Mayor of Burlington, Vermont back in 1986. would have voted for him in 2016, 2020 ... and would in 2024. i mean ... Bernie is REAL. shouldn't we be real as well? love this guy. 💕

Dear Bernie, Marianne Williamson stands for everything you said and she has the nerve to carry through. That’s who you should be supporting.

Thank you, Bernie. I would vote for you for president this year, over Biden, any day.

@@ichibonfriend2923 I am 77 years old and i have given up. The Democratic Party has failed me so many times i have no more trust in them. As for the Republicans, i never had trust in them. All i want now is to be left alone. I might as well write in Bernie Sanders or Pogo Possum at this point.

Yah, keeping "focusing" on policies that never get implemented! That's the way to go! 🤡

[@erikmejcado150]

The issue isn't about age per se, but about mental (and physical) decline that, unfortunately, only progresses with age. How can you expect policies to be succesful when the guy responsible for them is not up to the job. Bernie himself makes the point that the issue is not about age per se, since he is even older than Biden but doesn't show any signs of mental decline.
