Well, my comment was mostly directed your claim that we should, “deal with Biden,” after the election. If Trump is as dangerous as the Dems say he is (which, to be clear, I think he is), that’s a lot like saying, “we can talk about putting Grandpa in a home after he drives the kids to soccer practice.”
To your point about the meme, is there anyone that’s actually struggling with this decision? I’ve never encountered anyone who claims their equally bad (online or IRL), but I know a lot of people (apparently 59% of Americans) that think they’re both too old to be President. So, to me, this meme is delegitimizing criticism of Biden’s age by falsely equating those two positions.
No it’s just stressing how much worse Trump is regardless. It’s preaching to the converted, I don’t think it’s trying to rationalise issues with Biden, it’s poking fun there, too.
I mean, this meme is clearly making fun of someone, it just comes down to whether it’s a real, common viewpoint or a person the author made up in their head to get mad at.
Gandalf is Biden, Saruman is Trump. Biden is being played down and ridiculed, Trump is being compared to a murderous lunatic whom anyone is, however regrettably, a better option to.
…yeah, and there is a first person narrator saying that they’re both, “so old,” and, “equally bad choices,” whose indecisiveness is being mocked. That strawman is what I’ve been complaining about, are you not following this?

That’s sarcastic.
