However, you are misremembering the details--- the politician he had quote was a British Labor party member,
whom he had been quoting regularly and properly attributing the quote---
and the whole brouha was about the time when he again made the quote,
but in this one instance forgot to give attribution....
And yeah--- President Biden was probably too old for 2024,
but no party has successfully elected a new candidate
after failing to renominate their living incumbent president,
in about 100 years.... so it is quite natural that he would run again,
and that loyal party members like you and I would support his campaign!
Now all the 20-20 hindsight vision about whether he should have withdrawn,
and certain journalists and others trying to profit from that supposition is meaningless BULLSHIT---
It is water under the bridge, and misdirection, and irrelevant under the current circumstances...
and irresponsible wasted journalistic effort, considering what faces us now!
Instead of trying to create a scandal over whether the former leader "should have or shouldn't have",
they should be relentlessly exposing the current emperor, who is trying to become our immortal king
while setting fire to Rome at the same time...
