Hillary Clinton tells voters to just ‘accept’ Biden is ‘old’

Hillary Clinton says it’s time for Americans to just accept that President Biden is old — but still vote for him anyway.

“Somebody the other day said to me: ‘Well, but, you know, Joe Biden’s old,’” the former secretary of state recalled during a Super Tuesday interview on “Mornings with Zerlina.”

“I said, ‘You know what, Joe Biden is old. Let’s go ahead and accept the reality. Joe Biden is old,’” Clinton said of the 81-year-old commander-in-chief.

Still, Clinton urged voters to still back Biden, saying that mushrooming fears over the oldest-ever president — who would be 86 at the end of a second term — are nothing compared to those if former President Donald Trump, 77, returns to the White House.

“So we have a contest between one candidate who’s old, but who’s done an effective job and doesn’t threaten our democracy,” she said of her fellow Democrat.

“And we have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy,” she said of Trump, who is just one year older than her.

“Pick between your two old ones and figure out how you’re going to save our democracy,” she told host Zerlina Maxwell on the SiriusXM show.

“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.”

The Democrat notably sidestepped the issue of the president’s mental fitness for office — a month after Special Counsel Robert Hur released a damning report on Biden’s handling of classified documents that described the commander-in-chief “as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”
