It’s really a simple question based on an ancient public service message aimed at promoting what used to be known as ‘responsible parenting.’

In this day and age of geriatric dementia patients occupying the White House, who reportedly only function at their marginal best from 9 am to 4 pm Tues-Thurs before having to recuperate on a beach in Delaware, asking ‘Where the hell is the president?’ has a special poignancy.

I remember when such a thing was unheard of.

Unthinkable.

Of course, the president would be there – why wouldn’t he/she? That’s the job. 

TO BE THERE

Based on the lackluster mushroom whose coattails she rode to the second highest office in the land and upon whose stolen thunder she’s banking on to ride to the top, Harris decided she’d go after Trump’s age, acuity, and stamina.

Why not – there’s scarcely a three-year difference between the two “old men,” so objections should carry the same-same weight, right?

Kamala came out of the gate, flexing her springiness.

Trump’s an old man, as Harris, her campaign surrogates, and her media toadies have dutifully repeated over the course of the past few months of her usurpation parade.

He’s exhausted, unhinged, befuddled, and cranky. Weird didn’t last long as an insult.

Trump was mostly too old aka the slicker adjective “aging.”

 

A few watchwords of Tuesday night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia were “same,” “old” and “tired.” 

“I’m going to tell you on this debate tonight, you’re going to hear from the same old, tired playbook, a bunch of lies, grievances and name-calling,” Vice President Kamala Harris said in the first few moments of the debate. It was a response to Donald Trump’s first comments and she didn’t portray him as scary, so much as sad. After he let loose with another round of lies about January 6, she said, “perhaps we do not have, in the candidate to my right, the temperament or the ability to not be confused about fact.” 

Harris never said Trump, as a person, is too old to be president. She didn’t need to. He was glowering through pink-rimmed eyes under his combover, every inch the mean man everyone avoids at the retirement home. She even avoided the viral word of the campaign: “Weird.” But she didn’t need to say it because Trump kept saying weird things like, “I have been a leader on fertilization.” Harris, meanwhile, kept her jabs like “exhausted” and “old” focused strictly on Trump’s tactics and policies. 

But everyone can tell that it’s not Trump’s policies that need a nap; it’s the cranky old man himself.

And after Trump was so mean to POTATUS about his age. You can hear Marcotte’s “tch tch tch” in your head.

With the Harris campaign stumbles, issue flip-flops, stonewalls, and inertia, the one message they stuck to was, “I hope the old sucker can keep up. He’s lookin’ ragged, don’t you think?“

Of course, the press agreed and made sure to clue everyone in who might not have noticed.

…Harris told reporters that Trump was “unfit,” “unstable” and “a danger to our democracy” ahead of an afternoon rally. But she appeared to touch a nerve with her Republican rival when she mentioned a report that Trump was “exhausted.”

“Being president of the United States is probably one of the hardest jobs in the world and we really do need to ask, if he’s exhausted on the campaign trail, is he fit to do the job?” jabbed Harris, who has been on the road campaigning since Monday and won’t return to Washington until sometime next week.

Harris’ attack comes as she seeks to raise doubts about Trump’s health over the final days of the campaign. Trump, at 78, would be the oldest person in U.S. to become the president if he wins. But he’s refused to release his medical records or other health details, breaking decades of tradition in presidential politics.

But again, they miscalculated, seriously.

For one thing, voters are capable of counting independently of what the press tells them. Things like appearances – interviews and rallies. By mid-September Trump had already done 37 rallies and probably lost count of press conferences and interviews.

Harris had managed six events.

In October, Harris was tap dancing to avoid a three-hour Rogan interview similar to what her “aged” opponent willingly sat for – and seemed to enjoy thoroughly.

All that Beyonce time takes a toll on a girl.

She should hang with regular people instead of celebrities, paid or not. 

For some reason, everyday folks at rallies appear to transmit energy. I mean, look at the ‘old man.’

…Trump, who has been actively campaigning, doing press conferences and interviews, hit back by calling Harris a “loser.”

“I’ve gone 48 days now without a rest,” Trump said in a call to Fox & Friends. “And I’ve got that loser, who doesn’t have the energy of a rabbit.”

…“The truth is President Trump has been running laps around Kamala Harris on the campaign trail and has sat down for nearly three times as many interviews as she has,” Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement, per The Washington Post.

“President Trump has more energy, and a harder work ethic, than anyone in politics.”

Seriously. This has always been Trump.

In the final days of a campaign, Trump always, ALWAYS has afterburners to kick in.

The man’s a machine.

Last night’s Election Day Eve was no difference.

Where was the younger, fresher, ‘more energetic’ Kamala?

With her dearest friends Gaga, Ricky Martin, Will I Am, and Oprah at an intimate little soirée in Philly.

Another account said Harris managed all of nine minutes of speaking to the crowd.

Before doing one, last scripted and stage-managed ‘spontaneous’ moment for the cameras…that needed a retake.

As always, max effort from the reportedly energetic, hard-working vice president seems to be…I dunno…seriously lacking.

In contrast – the contrast she and her minions insisted on making – here was the ‘old man’?

Well…depends on where you’re asking about and what time because he was all over the place.

Trump had four rallies yesterday, the last of which started – STARTED – at damn near midnight.

THE LAST RALLY – GRAND RAPIDS, MI

And the last dance of the 2024 Trump campaign happened at 0215 THIS MORNING.

Oh, yeah.

God willing, after this evening and an inauguration, when someone asks the updated question?

Hell, to the yeah. 

I’ll know exactly where my PRESIDENT is at any given time.

Exactly where he should be.
