Dude, Clinton today is still younger than Trump and he was president 25 years ago.

Yes, that is what the graphic is pointing out. Trump is currently older than all of them except Biden.

Clinton was inaugurated in 1993. That's 31 years ago. Taylor Swift was 3 years old when Bill Clinton became president.

That's a 10:1 Taylor ratio.

It's ok, its not metric

"How many taylor swifts old are our candidates? And more after the break"

Yeah, Metric didn't start until 1998.

Yeah, well... I remember when you were gambling to win, everybody else said, "Better luck next time!"

[–] Chewget@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Just for perspective in this case, I think
