Had this been Biden, Fox and co. would be railing, raving, gesticulating for days about being too-old and unfit to serve.

But it's still interesting that this other old presidential contender is fumbling his words. Might be stress as much as age. He's gotta be concerned about his future with all this.

Typical guilty shitheel tactic: play the "old and frail" card for sympathy points, just like how Harvey Weinstein busted out the walker for photo ops. He's still a rapist and Trump is still a traitor (and probably also a rapist).

There's no probably. If New York's rape laws weren't so archaic and specific, he would've been found guilty of rape.

The people that update the laws will never put themselves in danger by being effected by them
