"Sleepy" Joe vs MAGA "Meat Curtains"
The race is on to decide the next President of these here United States. Will it be top Putin shill, Donald Trump, or "rules-based international order" shill, Joe Biden?
Surprisingly, the actual policies, ideologies, and records of the two candidates are not that important in deciding this major electoral contest, but rather how Biden (age 81) and Trump (age 77) stand up to the aging process.
Here Biden is doing particularly badly. Not only is he 3-4 years older than Trump, but he is increasingly being perceived as "senile" after getting some foreign names mixed up and taking too many naps.
But Trump isn't having it all his own way. The obviously overweight former steak salesman has been ranting in public and using too much orange foundation to hide his wrinkles.
In fact, if anything, Trump seems to be aging at a faster rate than Biden.

This was Trump just two or three years ago at the height of his powers:

But now he struggles to get into his cummerbund and has developed large, unsightly "meat curtains" just below his chin, making him look like a large, angry, orange turkey.
According to experts on aging, the most difficult area to hide from the withering claw of Chronos, God of Time, is the neck area. This is because the the skin around your neck is equally as delicate as the skin surrounding your mouth and eyes, but a whole lot bigger -- and saggier.
As the body ages, the collagen and elastin needed to support our skin by keeping it stretchy but also tight rapidly diminish, leading to what scientists call "turkey neck". Trump has clearly got a bad case of this, making him a lot less attractive at the ballot box to his boomer voters, for whom he is an avatar of their own reluctant aging process.

When Democracy was invented 2500 years ago by the Ancient Greeks, it was only ever meant to be used by small numbers of young and virile males of relatively high intelligence in relation to the comparatively simple issues that had to be decided. Now, thanks to America, the original concept has been stretched out of all recognition to include hundreds of millions of low-information boomers deciding the outcome of complex issues by casting their ballots for relatively trivial and cosmetic reasons.
How many times Biden "misspeaks" in a sentence and the neck wobbles of Donald Trump have never been more important.
