I'm in my 70s and I find Nikki Haley's comment about Mr Biden's age offensive. I guess she feels that being a target of Don Lemon regarding being past her prime gives her license to be as insulting to others regarding age as she wants, but this is just an obvious example of hypocrisy.

I guess she feels that being a target of Don Lemon regarding being past her prime gives her license to be as insulting to others regarding age as she wants, but this is just an obvious example of hypocrisy. I would like to see her castigated for this, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
Haley can't be fired for her ageist statement, but I'd wager that her standings in the primary ranks won't get any sort of boost, even a minimal one, especially from the Boomers like me. (I had no intention of giving her my vote in the Primaries - nor to TFG or DeSantis either - anyway.)
Haley, like the rest of the MAGA crowd, can get bent. She is, and they all are, disgusting examples of the "new conservatism." The Republican Party, and its conservative wing, are now dead and buried by the Trumpettes.
Ron DeSantis is much younger than Biden, but he has already successfully become a racist, sexist, sadistic fascist. Age is not a qualification, plus or minus.
I agree that age is not a qualification, nor do I say that in my comment. In fact, I state that her ageist attack is hypocritical, and I also believe a cheap shot. Mental acuity is much more important than physical age, and in that regard I believe that TFG is senile and that DeSantis suffers from some serious undiagnosed mental illness, while Biden still has his wits about him - despite occasional screw-ups when he speaks.
